This trial is for healthy pediatric patients who need to undergo medical procedures. The study aims to see if giving kids rewards can help reduce their anxiety during these procedures. To join, children must be in good health and scheduled for a procedure where they could benefit from stress reduction.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing three approaches: standard care by a child life specialist; standard care plus a promised reward after the procedure; and standard care with an immediate reward without conditions. Researchers want to know which method best lowers anxiety.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
There are no direct side effects from the interventions being tested since they involve non-medical techniques like providing support and incentives. However, there may be indirect effects on the child's emotional state depending on how they respond to receiving or not receiving an incentive.
