Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of the randomized controlled study is to examine the effects of ShotBlocker, finger puppet and balloon inflation methods applied during intramuscular injection procedure on children's pain and fear level.
Detailed Description
The aim of the randomized controlled study is to examine the effects of ShotBlocker, finger puppet and balloon inflation methods applied during intramuscular injection procedure on 7-12 age group children on pain and fear level. The purpose of the research and all the working processes were explained to the children and parents by the researcher. Children who met all eligibility criteria were invited to participate in the study with their parents. The children and their parents were informed about the study, they were included in the study by announcing that they would be in one of the four groups, and this group was randomly determined. Before starting the application, verbal and written consent was obtained from the parents of the children by reading/reading the Informed Voluntary Consent Form. The child and parent were informed by the researcher about the pain and fear level assessment tools and application before and after the procedure.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Facial Pain Scale
Time Frame: 1 day
Graded according to the severity of the pain, the leftmost face consists of "no pain" and the rightmost face consists of a total of 6 facial expressions, such as "too much pain". Faces expressing the increase in pain intensity from left to right are scored as 0,2,4,6,8,10, respectively.The level of fear experienced by the children in all groups during the injection and 5 minutes after the injection was evaluated.
Visual Analog Scale
Time Frame: 1 day
The scale consists of a 10 cm / 100 mm long ruler that can be used horizontally or vertically, with "no pain" at one end and "worst pain imaginable" at the other. The child is asked to mark a spot on the line that will accurately reflect his or her pain.The level of pain experienced by the children in all groups during the injection and 5 minutes after the injection was evaluated.
Child Fear Scale
Time Frame: 1 day
The scale is a visual measurement tool consisting of five drawn facial expressions ranging from neutral expression (0=no anxiety) to frightened face (4=severe anxiety) and scores between 0-4 points.The level of pain experienced by the children in all groups during the injection and 5 minutes after the injection was evaluated.
