A study to Assess the Effectiveness of Comfort Hold Techniques and Distracters (CHTD) to Reduce Procedural Pain and Distress in Children undergoing therapeutic procedures at Selected Hospitals of Moradabad.

The research study aims to assess the effectiveness of Comfort Hold Techniques and Distracters (CHTD) in reducing procedural pain and distress in children undergoing therapeutic procedures. The study focuses on evaluating both primary outcomes, such as pain and distress levels during and after procedures, and secondary outcomes, including child and parent satisfaction, effectiveness of distraction techniques, and behavioral responses. By using a combination of comfort holds and engaging distractions, the study seeks to explore how these interventions can improve the overall experience of children during potentially distressing medical treatments. The outcomes are measured at multiple time points, including pre-procedure, during, and post-procedure, to understand both immediate and delayed effects. The findings from this study could provide valuable insights into pain management strategies for pediatric patients and help improve the quality of care in medical settings.
