Overview

Brief Summary

The study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study to compare the effects of music and white noise on fear, anxiety and pain levels before, during and after the procedure in school-age children (6-12 years old) who will undergo endoscopy.

Hypothesis 0 (H0): There is no difference in fear, anxiety, pain, parental anxiety and pulse, respiration and oxygen saturation values between children exposed to music and white noise.

Hypothesis 1 (H1): Children who were exposed to music and white noise had lower fear scores than children who were not exposed to any application.

Hypothesis 2 (H2): Children who were exposed to music and white noise had lower anxiety scores than children who were not exposed to any application.

Hypothesis 3 (H3): Children who were exposed to music and white noise had lower pain scores than children who were not exposed to any application.

Hypothesis 4 (H4): Children who were exposed to music and white noise had lower pulse value scores than children who were not exposed to any application.

Hypothesis 5 (H5): Children who were exposed to music and white noise had lower respiratory rate scores than children who were not exposed to any application.

Hypothesis 6 (H6): Children who were exposed to music and white noise had higher oxygen saturation value scores than children who were not exposed to any application.

Hypothesis 7 (H7): Parents of children who were exposed to music and white noise had lower parental anxiety than parents of children who were not exposed to any treatment.

There are music group, white noise and control group in the study.

Detailed Description

The independent variables of the study are age, gender, music and white noise application. The dependent variables are; Children's Fear Scale (CFS) scores used to measure children's fear, Children's Anxiety Scale-State (CAS-D) scores used to measure anxiety, The Faces Pain Scale Revised (FPS-R) scores used to measure pain status, pulse, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation values and Beck Anxiety Inventory scores obtained from parents.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Child fear scale

Time Frame: six months

The Child Fear Scale (CFS), developed by McMurty and colleagues (2011), consists of five drawn facial expressions ranging from a neutral expression (0 = no anxiety) to a frightened face (4 = severe anxiety). The validity and reliability of the scale were performed by Gerçeker and colleagues (2018). The CGI value for the CFS is 0.89 (McMurty et al., 2011).

Child anxiety scale-state

Time Frame: six months

The Child Anxiety Scale State (CAS-S) developed by Ersig et al. (2013) is used to measure the anxiety of the child's current situation. The validity and reliability of the scale were made by Gerceker et al. (2018). The Content Validity Index (CVI) value for CAS-S was found to be 1.00.

The Faces Pain Scale - Revised

Time Frame: six months

It is a self-report measure of pain intensity developed for children. It has been made more suitable for use by using visual depictions of six facial expressions representing increasing levels of pain intensity and by adapting the metric scoring to 0-10. The revised version of the facial pain scale is widely used in the adult and pediatric populations for pain intensity assessment. It is easy to apply and does not require any equipment other than the faces in the picture.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Beck Anxiety Inventory(six months)
  • pulse value(six months)
  • respiratory value(six months)
  • oxygen saturation value(six months)
