简要总结
Circumcision is a common procedure in infants, children and young people around the world for cultural, religious or medical reasons. Since this is a painful procedure, it is performed under local anesthesia or general anesthesia. It is recommended to perform this procedure under local anesthesia if there is no risk. Although local anesthesia is used during the procedure, pain and anxiety levels of children may increase. Distraction methods are commonly used and effective methods to reduce pain and anxiety during painful procedures. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of tablet playing during circumcision on pain and anxiety in school age children.

Circumcision is a common procedure in the worldwide. To our knowledge, although there have been several randomized controlled trials using video and game techniques, which are distractions to reduce pain and anxiety during painful procedures, no randomized controlled trials using playing the game with Tablet to reduce pain and anxiety during circumcision have been found. Non-pharmacological studies, such as play therapy, are needed to reduce pain and anxiety in school-age children undergoing circumcision under local anesthesia.

结局指标
主要结局
change on pain intensity as measured by Visual Analog Scale
时间窗: "5-10 minutes before procedure", "during procedure" and "5 minutes after" circumcision.
The average score change on pain intensity as measured by Visual Analog Scale. This scale is an unidimensional measure commonly used to measure pain intensity. The scale is a measuring tool with length of 0-10 cm (0-100 mm). High scores on the scale indicate that pain intensity is high.
次要结局
- score change on anxiety level as measured by State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children("5-10 minutes before procedure" and "5 minutes after procedure" circumcision.)
