- Brief Summary
This study was conducted to determine the effect of environmental play and mobilization on fear and pain levels of children aged 6-12 years who had acute appendicitis surgery.
- Detailed Description
It was conducted with children aged 6-12 years in the postoperative period in a randomized controlled manner. Children in the intervention (n:50) group were mobilized by playing environmental games.The children in the control group (n:50) underwent routine mobilization of the clinic.
The data were collected with the "Child Follow-up Form", which was created to evaluate the child's demographic characteristics, physiological parameters, pain and fear.

Group Intervention Description game group game Children who accepted to participate in the game were taken to the playground with minimum two and maximum four people. After the children were introduced to each other, the rules of the game were explained. Between the children playing, dice were rolled to determine the starting order of the game. The player who scored the highest number had the right to start the game first. With the help of the stopwatch, the playing time was started, and the children played the game in accordance with the rules. For the child who first reached the square of the world, the time was stopped and recorded in the "Child Follow-up Form". The game was played with a maximum game duration of 15 minutes. In the same way, the times of the children who reached the world square in the second, third and fourth places were recorded on the "Follow-up Form".
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The effect of environmental play on the pulse rate of children after mobilization 60 seconds pulse rate
The effect of environmental play on children's fear score after mobilization 30 seconds Child Fear Scale (CFS) was used for determine fear score in this research. Scale got 0 to 4 points (0 (good) to 4 (bad)).
The effect of environmental play on children's fear score before mobilization 30 seconds Child Fear Scale (CFS) was used for determine fear score in this research. Scale got 0 to 4 points (0 (good) to 4 (bad)).
The effect of environmental play on the blood pressure of children before mobilization 60 seconds blood pressure
The effect of environmental play on the blood pressure of children after mobilization 60 seconds blood pressure
The effect of environmental play on the postmobilization pain score of children 30 seconds Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was used for determine pain level in this research. Scale got 0 to 10 points (0 (Good) to 10 (Bad)).
The effect of environmental play on premobilization pain score of children 30 seconds Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was used for determine pain level in this research. Scale got 0 to 10 points (0 (Good) to 10 (Bad)).
