Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Pain, acute
Time Frame: 12 week
Wong Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale: This scale was developed by Donna Wong and Connie Morain Baker in 1981 and later revised in 1983. The scale is suitable for describing the pain status of children aged 3-18 years. Children can express many pain areas and their severity with this scale. There are 6 facial expressions in the scale. The scores of "0", "2", "4", "6", "8", "10" were indicated for each facial expression, respectively. Facial expressions are given points with the lowest "0" and the highest "10". A score of "0" was defined as no pain, while a score of "10" was defined as unbearable pain.
Anxiety, spitefulness
Time Frame: 12 week
Venham Anxiety Rating Picture Scale: The scale was developed by Larry L. Venham and Elise Gaulin Kremer in 1979. The scale is used to determine the anxiety status of children over 3 years old. There are 8 cards in the scale and two pictures on each card. Cards 1 to 8 are shown to the child in turn. Of the pictures, the anxious picture is given 1 point, while the non-anxious picture is given 0 points. The lowest is 0 points, while the highest is 8 points. In the 0 to 8 scoring system, the higher the score, the higher the anxiety rate.
