Introduction: Children are the most valuable resource, and childhood is the world of a miracle. Every child in a lifetime may face many illnesses and hospitalisation. Pain is a common problem faced by a hospitalised child. Venepuncture is an invasive procedure followed in the hospital, which may produce pain, fear, anxiety, and discomfort in children. The animation distraction is one of the cost-effective non-pharmacological methods which may distract the child during any procedure and reduce the pain stimuli. Aim: To find the effect of animation distraction on pain response during venepuncture. Materials and Methods: An evaluative research approach with a quasi-experimental (post-test only control group) design was adopted in the study. The sample comprised of 40 children (20 each in the control and experimental group) aged 4-12 years undergoing venepuncture was selected by using a non-probability purposive sampling technique. A small 5-20 minutes of animated videos based on the children’s age and choice were displayed to the experimental group during the venepuncture procedure. Wong–Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale was used to assess the pain response after venepuncture in both the control and experimental group. Results: The data was collected, recorded systematically, and analysed with descriptive and inferential statistics. The experimental group’s mean post-test pain score (3.4±1.68) was lower than the control group (8.2±1.53) with p<0.001. Three-fourths of the control group (75%) had severe pain, whereas in the experimental group, none of the samples experienced severe pain, and 55% of the samples had moderate pain. Notably, 5% of the samples from the experimental group reported no pain during venepuncture. The calculated t-value t(38)=9.79 is greater than the table value t(38)=2.02 at 0.05 level of significance. Conclusion: The animation distraction was highly effective in reducing the pain response in children during venepuncture.

ABSTRACT Objectives To assess the knowledge and anxiety level of primigravidae about labor in both experimental and control group, evaluate the effectiveness of the planned teaching program on knowledge and reducing anxiety about labor among primigravidae in the experimental group as compared to the control group. Methods The research approach used for the study was the evaluative approach. The study was conducted using pre-test post-test, control group, a quasi experimental design. The study was conducted on 60 primigravidae (30 experimental and 30 control group) attending antenatal OPD's at KLE's Dr Prabhakar Kore Hospital and MRC, Belgaum using purposive sampling technique. Data was collected by using a structured knowledge questionnaire and standardized Zung self-rating scale. The data was tabulated and analyzed in terms of objectives of the study, using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results The results showed that knowledge score mean difference (MD) in experimental group was 16.8 and in control group it was 0.6. Therefore planned teaching program was effective method to gain knowledge about labor among primigravidae. The anxiety score MD was 37.6 in experimental group and in control group it was 0.16. Hence planned teaching program helped in reducing anxiety about labor and study findings showed that there was positive correlation between knowledge and reducing anxiety in experimental group (rxy = 0.1). Therefore planned teaching program helped to gain knowledge and reduce anxiety about labor in primigravidae. Conclusion Anxiety is common in life. It is more among primigravida mothers during labor and delivery. Mothers experience anxiety during their labor and delivery in hospitalization. Identification of anxiety and stress, helps nurses to plan provide holistic care which helps mothers to have smooth hospitalization and minimizes anxiety. Providing psychological support is one of the most important needs during their labor and delivery on the labor table. The study suggests the need for education, guidance and counseling which are essential for the primigravida mothers when they are under stress and anxiety during pregnancy and labor.
