Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

• Personal data collection form

  The data collection form was prepared by the researchers in line with the literature. In this form 8 questions about the characteristics of children.There are 18 questions in total, 10 of which include parent and family characteristics.

  baseline

• Child Fear Scale

  The scale was developed to determine the anxiety level of children aged 5-10 years. There are various facial expressions in the scale and a numerical value is given for each facial expression. The lowest score obtained from the scale is "0" and the highest score is "4". The higher the score obtained from the scale, the higher the level of anxiety felt in the child. The inhaler was filled by the child before medication administration.

  baseline

• Child Emotional Manifestation Scale

  In the scale, emotional indicators are evaluated in terms of 5 parameters. These parameters are; facial expression, voice, activity, interaction and cooperation level. These five parameters are scored from 1 to 5, and the lowest "5" and the highest "25" points are obtained at the end of the evaluation of the scale. A low score from the scale indicates a positive emotional state, and an increase in a score indicates a negative emotional state. The inhaler was filled out by the researcher before drug administration.
