简要总结
Pediatric patients often experience anxiety and pain during medical procedures, such as intravenous cannula insertion, which can lead to distress, decreased compliance, and potential procedural delays. Despite the prevalence of such procedures, there is limited evidence on the most effective pain management strategies, particularly the use of local anesthetics. This study aims to address this gap through a randomized trial evaluating the efficacy of local anesthetics in reducing post-insertion pain. Effective pain management can improve patient comfort, mitigate long-term psychological impacts like needle phobia, enhance procedural compliance, and optimize healthcare resource utilization. By advancing evidence-based practices, this research supports the ethical imperative of ensuring pediatric well-being and promoting patient-centered care.
