Article Synopsis
- This study evaluated the effectiveness of a cold and vibration device (Buzzy) compared to a standard pain relief method (EMLA patch) during venous access in young children aged 18 months to 6 years.
- The research involved 607 pediatric patients, with random assignment to either the Buzzy or EMLA group, and pain levels were measured using various scales and reports from parents and nurses.
- Results indicated that the Buzzy device was associated with higher pain-related behavior scores, suggesting it is less effective in providing pain relief during cannulation than the EMLA patch.
