Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Tool I: Characteristics of Children with Thalassemia and Their Physiological Parameters Assessment Sheet:
This tool was developed by the researcher after reviewing the literature to assess the characteristics of children with thalassemia and their parameters. It includes two parts:Part One: children's characteristics: age, sex, and medical history. level of education, place of residence, Part Two: children's physiological parameters: respiratory rate, heart rate, and O2 saturation.
children's characteristics will be assessed initially, pre-procedure. physiological parameters of children will be assessed as the following; • "Baseline, pre-blood transfusion procedure" • "During the blood transfusion procedure" • "Immediately after th
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Tool II: Observational Scale of Behavioral Distress:
Children's behavioral reactions to stress will be assessed as the following;• "Baseline, pre-blood transfusion procedure" • "During the blood transfusion procedure" • "Immediately after the blood transfusion procedure"
Study Arms (3)
Control group
NO INTERVENTIONchildren with thalassemia will receive only routine care of hospital during blood transfusion.
Benson's Relaxation Group
EXPERIMENTALchildren with thalassemia will receive Benson's relaxation intervention beside routine care of hospital during blood transfusion
Music Therapy Group
EXPERIMENTALchildren with thalassemia will receive music therapy intervention beside routine care of hospital during blood transfusion.
Interventions
Each child in the study group had an individual interview with researchers, who demonstrated the Benson relaxation technique while teaching them. The child was then asked to demonstrate it. sit quietly in a comfortable position in separate room., close eyes, deeply relax all muscles, beginning at the feet and progressing up to the face and breathe through nose. Become aware of breathing pattern. As breathes out, say the word one silently to child. For example, breathe in, and then out, say one, in and out, and repeat one. Breathe easily and naturally. It is Continue for 10 minutes and repeated two times.
* The child lessen to a Mozart's music, which is played before and throughout the blood transfusion procedure. Ambient noise can be reduced by using headphones. As a result, it is easier to see how the intervention has succeeded. * This intervention was done using an MP3 player during the blood transfusion procedure and immediately following the completion of the intervention to prevent the transmission of infections headphones were cleaned with disinfectant after each -use.
