Hu Z, Yao J, He L, Li X, Guo Y. The impact of virtual reality exposure on anxiety and pain levels in pediatric patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis. J Pediatr Nurs 2024; 78:e364-e374. [PMID: 39085008 DOI: 10.1016/j.pedn.2024.07.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2024] [Revised: 07/22/2024] [Accepted: 07/24/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024]
Abstract
PROBLEM Virtual reality (VR) is used as a novel intervention technique to alleviate uncomfortable experiences such as anxiety and pain in children. Recently, VR distraction has gained prominence in pediatric medical procedures. However, no studies have yet conducted a further quantitative analysis of the intervention effects of virtual reality exposure (VRE). This systematic review aims to analyse the effect of VRE on anxiety and pain levels in paediatric patients undergoing medical procedures. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Relevant studies were searched from four databases, including PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of Science. This systematic review has been registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO). RESULTS The meta-analysis incorporated a total of 11 articles, encompassing 1,099 pediatric patients. The results showed that VRE relieved children's anxiety [SMD = -0.61, 95% CI (-0.93, -0.28), p < 0.001], but there was no significant difference in alleviating pain in children [SMD = -1.48, 95% CI (-3.40, 0.44), p = 0.131]. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that VRE is effective in reducing children's anxiety during medical procedures. However, 7 of the 11 original studies included in this review were from the same research project, which may increase the risk of reporting bias. Also, more high-quality studies are needed in the future to verify its effectiveness for pain levels. IMPLICATIONS VRE can help children become familiar with the medical environment, overcome anxiety and fear, and learn about medical procedures in advance. This can enhance their cooperation during medical process, leading to a more positive medical experience.

J Ren Care 2023; 49:243-252. [PMID: 36451338 DOI: 10.1111/jorc.12451] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2022] [Revised: 09/14/2022] [Accepted: 11/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura nephritis are frequently burdened with psychological problems besides disease treatment and adherence. Currently, there is a shortage of appropriate and effective educational materials to facilitate physical and psychological recovery. OBJECTIVES To examine a picture book for the effectiveness of disease-related knowledge, coping strategies, resilience, quality of life and depressive symptoms in children with Henoch-Schonlein purpura nephritis in China. DESIGN A quasi-experimental design with repeated measures was adopted. The control group received standard care. The intervention group received the standard care plus a free picture book. This disease-specific picture book narrated the story of two rabbits diagnosed with Henoch-Schonlein purpura nephritis who underwent a series of examinations, faced difficulties taking medication, and eventually recovered. PARTICIPANTS The study recruited 60 children diagnosed with Henoch-Schonlein purpura nephritis. MEASUREMENTS Disease-related knowledge, resilience, coping strategies, depression and paediatric quality of life were measured at baseline, the third day, the first month and the third month after recruitment. The acceptability of the picture book was evaluated at the last data-collection point. RESULTS The data showed that children in the intervention group demonstrated higher levels of knowledge (p < 0.001), less usage of emotional coping strategies (p = 0.003), reduced depressive symptoms (p = 0.003), improved psychological resilience (p < 0.001), and better quality of life (p < 0.046) than those in the control group in the third month. Most children (83.3%) in the intervention group were satisfied with the picture book. CONCLUSIONS The targeted picture book is an effective educational tool for improving clinical outcomes and was highly accepted by children.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of watching short videos in the preoperative waiting room on preoperative anxiety in children. DESIGN This study was designed as a prospective, randomized trial including 69 ASA I-II patients aged 5 to 12 years who were scheduled for elective surgery. METHODS The children were randomly allocated to two groups. The experimental group browsed short videos on a social media platform (eg, YouTube short, TikTok, Instagram reels) for 20 minutes in the preoperative waiting room, but the control group did not. Children's preoperative anxiety was determined by the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (mYPAS) at different time points: on arrival in the preoperative waiting room (T1), right before being taken to the operating room (OR) (T2), on entering the OR (T3), and during anesthesia induction (T4). The primary outcome of the study was children's anxiety scores at T2. FINDINGS The mYPAS scores at T1 were similar in both groups (P = .571). The mYPAS scores at T2, T3, and T4 were significantly lower in the video group than in the control group (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS Watching short videos on social media platforms in the preoperative waiting room lowered preoperative anxiety levels in pediatric patients aged 5 to 12.

Abstract
Background Preoperative anxiety often prevails in children at higher levels than adults, which is a common impediment for surgeons and anesthesiologists. It is of great necessity to explore an appropriate medication to improve this situation. Remimazolam, a type of benzodiazepine drug, has been indicated for the induction and maintenance of procedural sedation in adults since 2020. To date, rare studies were reported to investigate the effect of remimazolam on children. In this study, we investigated the safety and efficacy of intranasal drops of remimazolam and tried to determine the 95% effective dose (ED95) of remimazolam in single intranasal administration in attenuating preoperative anxiety in children. Methods In this study, 114 children were enrolled who underwent laparoscopic high-level inguinal hernia ligation between January 2021 and December 2022 and were divided into an early childhood children group and a pre-school children group. The biased coin design (BCD) was used to determine the target doses. A positive response was defined as the effective relief of preoperative anxiety (modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale, mYPAS < 30). The initial nasal dose of remimazolam was 0.5 mg·kg-1 in the two groups. An increment or decrement of 0.1 mg·kg-1 was applied depending on the sedative responses. Isotonic regression and bootstrapping methods were used to calculate the ED95 and 95% confidence intervals (CIs), respectively. Results A total of 80 children completed the study, including 40 in the early childhood group and 40 in the pre-school children group. As statistical analysis indicated, the ED95 of a single intranasal infusion of remimazolam for the relief of preoperative anxiety is 1.57 mg·kg-1 (95% CI: 1.45-1.59 mg·kg-1) in early childhood children and 1.09 mg·kg-1 (95% CI: 0.99-1.11 mg·kg-1) in pre-school children, and the CIs did not overlap each other. Conclusion Remimazolam is an effective medication to relieve preoperative anxiety in children. Moreover, the ED95 of single nasal administration of remimazolam for effective relief of preoperative anxiety was 1.57 and 1.09 mg·kg-1 in early childhood children and pre-school children, respectively.

Measuring Children's Stress via Saliva in Surgical and Endoscopic Procedures and Its Measurement Intention in the Community: Reality-Future Prospects. CHILDREN (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 10:children10050853. [PMID: 37238401 DOI: 10.3390/children10050853] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2023] [Revised: 05/02/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023]
Abstract
(1) Background: Children who undergo surgical or endoscopic procedures display high levels of stress, and various means are applied to reduce their anxiety. Salivary cortisol (S Cortisol) and salivary alpha-amylase (SAA) are often used as a valid biomarker of stress. The primary purpose of the study was the investigation of stress levels through S Cortisol and S amylase after intervention in surgical or endoscopic procedures (gastroscopy-colonoscopy). The secondary outcomes were the investigation of the intention to adopt new methods of saliva sampling. We collected saliva samples from children subjected to invasive medical procedures, with the aim of applying the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) as an intervention means to provide information and education to both parents and children undergoing stressful situations, and assess its efficacy in reducing stress levels. We also aimed at acquiring a better understanding of the acceptability of noninvasive biomarker collection in community settings. (2) Methods: The sample of this prospective study comprised 81 children who underwent surgical or endoscopic procedures at the Attikon General University Hospital, Athens, Greece and 90 parents. The sample was divided into two groups. The first, 'Group Unexplained', was not provided any information or education about the procedures, while the second, 'Group Explained', was informed and educated based on TPB. Thereafter, 8-10 weeks after intervention, the Theory of Planned Behavior questions were re-completed by the 'Group Explained'. (3) Results: Significant differences were detected in cortisol and amylase values between the two groups postoperatively after applying the TPB intervention. Saliva cortisol was reduced by 8.09 ng/mL in the 'Group Explained' while in the 'Group Unexplained' it was reduced by 4.45 ng/mL (p < 0.001). Salivary amylase values decreased by 9.69 ng/mL in the 'Group Explained' after the intervention phase of the study, while in the 'Group Unexplained' they increased by 35.04 ng/mL (p < 0.001). The regression explains 40.3% (baseline) and 28.5% (follow-up) of parental intention. The predictive factor of parental intention (baseline) is attitude (p < 0.001) and follow-up is behavioral control (p < 0.028) and attitude (p < 0.001). (4) Conclusions: Providing proper education and information for parents has a positive effect on reducing children's stress levels. Changing parental attitudes towards saliva collection plays the most important role, since a positive attitude can influence intention and ultimately participation in these procedures.

Effect of interactive, multimedia-based home-initiated education on preoperative anxiety inchildren and their parents: a single-center randomized controlled trial. BMC Anesthesiol 2023; 23:95. [PMID: 36977985 PMCID: PMC10045252 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-023-02055-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2023] [Accepted: 03/20/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Anesthesiologists need to appreciate the impact of preoperative anxiety in children. The present study aimed to explore whether interactive multimedia-based home-initiated interventions could effectively relieve preoperative anxiety in pediatric patients. METHODS In this prospective study, we compared preoperative anxiety between two groups of children aged 4-9 years. Children in the control group received a question-and-answer (Q&A) introduction, and children in the intervention group received multimedia-based home-initiated preoperative education using comic booklets, videos, and coloring game books. Differences in anxiety between the two groups were evaluated by the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale-Short Form (mYPAS-SF) at four time points: in the ophthalmology outpatient clinic before intervention as the baseline (T0); in the preoperative waiting area (T1); at the time of separating from their parents and moving to the operating room (T2); and at the time of anesthesia induction (T3). Parental anxiety was assessed by the Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) at T0 and T2. Other related information was collected by questionnaire. RESULTS Eighty-four children who underwent pediatric strabismus in our center between November 2020 and July 2021 were included in this study. An intention-to-treat (ITT) analysis was performed on data from 78 enrolled children. Children in the intervention group exhibited lower m-YPAS-SF scores at T1, T2, and T3 than those in the control group (all p < 0.001). By using a mixed-effect model with repeated measurement (MMRM) after adjusting the m-YPAS score at T0 as a covariate, the interventional effect in terms of themYPAS-SF score was also significant over time (p < 0.001). The percentage of children with perfect induction compliance (ICC = 0) in the intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group [18.4% vs. 7.5%], and poor induction compliance (ICC>4) was lower (2.6% vs. 17.5%, p = 0.048). The mean parental VAS score at T2 in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the control group (p = 0.021). CONCLUSIONS Interactive multimedia-based home-initiated intervention could reduce preoperative anxiety in children and improve the quality of anesthesia induction based on ICC scores, which may in turn impose a positive impact on parental anxiety.

Abstract
Background: Adolescence is a phase of many physical and psychological developments. This stage is also vulnerable to the development of mental illness. Anxiety is one of the most prevalent disorders among adolescents, which mostly onsets before puberty. This study aimed to understand the perception on anxiety among adolescents and mental health professionals and develop a comic strip on anxiety. Methods: This qualitative study involved focus group discussions (FGDs) among mental health professionals and pre-university college students. The FGD data were analyzed through direct content analysis according to the predetermined broad themes. Results: Awareness regarding anxiety was poor among adolescents, and in certain situations they were found to be reluctant to seek professional help. The comic strip on anxiety was developed based on the findings of FGD based on the themes, general awareness, factors responsible, symptoms and coping, management, and barriers to seeking professional help. Conclusions: Adolescents perceived mental health as very important for their overall health. The adolescents did not know that they were going through anxiety, but they noticed that they had some mental health issues and wanted to get out of it. The development of comic strip on anxiety for adolescents was an attempt to overcome these barriers.

Abstract
Background: During the perioperative period of pediatric surgery, it is extremely stressful for children and parents to enter the operating room and receive the anesthesia induction. This study was designed to evaluate the perioperative outcomes with parental presence at induction of anesthesia (PPIA), intranasal dexmedetomidine, and combined use of PPIA and intranasal dexmedetomidine. Methods: In this prospective study, 124 children were randomly divided into four groups: control (no parental presence or intranasal dexmedetomidine), PPIA (parental presence), DEX (intranasal dexmedetomidine (1.0 μg/kg)), and PPIA + DEX (parental presence and intranasal dexmedetomidine (1.0 μg/kg)). The anxiety of children was mainly evaluated by the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale-Short Form (mYPAS-SF). Secondary evaluation methods were, for example, the Induction Compliance Checklist (ICC), the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium Scale (PAED), the COMFORT Behavior Scale (COMFORT-B Scale), the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Results: Children in the PPIA + DEX group exhibited significantly lower mYPAS-SF and ICC scores compared with all three other groups (p < 0.001), and children in that group exhibited significantly lower mYPAS-SF and ICC scores compared with the PPIA and DEX groups (p < 0.05). The children's PAED scores in the PPIA, DEX, and PPIA + DEX groups were significantly lower than the control group (p < 0.001).The STAI-S scores of the PPIA, DEX, and PPIA + DEX groups were significantly lower than the score of the control group (p < 0.001). The VAS scores of the PPIA, DEX, and PPIA + DEX groups were significantly higher than that of the control group (p < 0.001), while the score of the PPIA + DEX group was significantly higher than those of the PPIA and DEX groups (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The combined use of PPIA and intranasal dexmedetomidine is more effective than PPIA or intranasal dexmedetomidine for alleviating the preoperative anxiety of children, improving children's induction compliance and parental satisfaction.

Abstract
Preoperative anxiety has adverse effects on children and negative impacts on postoperative rehabilitation. Anesthesiologists can accurately identify children with preoperative anxiety, and individualized intervention can effectively improve their psychological state and clinical prognosis. However, a comprehensive summary of the current available evidence has yet to be conducted. Searches were conducted in Medline databases from inception to March 2022. Primary studies that reported preoperative anxiety in children and its attendant effects on postoperative recovery and prognosis were screened and included. Among the 309 publications identified, 12 related studies (n = 3540 patients) met the eligibility criteria. The incidence of preoperative anxiety in children in the included studies ranged from 41.7% to 75.44%. While 16 influencing factors were identified, only 5 factors had a significant impact on preoperative anxiety in children: younger age (n = 8), parental anxiety (n = 7), negative previous hospitalizations (n = 3), less sociableness (n = 2), and surgical setting (n = 1). The current scoping review identified risk factors for preoperative anxiety in children. Healthcare workers should identify and manage preoperatively anxious children. There are still some factors that are controversial, and large-scale clinical studies are needed.

Virtual reality in preoperative preparation of children undergoing general anesthesia: a randomized controlled study. DIE ANAESTHESIOLOGIE 2022; 71:204-211. [PMID: 35925196 DOI: 10.1007/s00101-022-01177-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2021] [Revised: 03/25/2022] [Accepted: 04/09/2022] [Indexed: 10/16/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Preoperative anxiety can cause hyperalgesia, postoperative delirium and other adverse events, and even long-term psychological disorders. The aim of this trial was to determine whether preoperative virtual reality (VR) preparation reduces anxiety prior to induction of anesthesia. METHODS Data were analyzed for 99 children undergoing elective surgery. Participants were randomly assigned to a VR exposure intervention group or a control group. In the VR group, children watched a VR video showing a realistic interactive immersive virtual version of the perioperative process. The control group received conventional preoperative preparation. Preoperative anxiety using the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale-Short Form (mYPAS-SF) during anesthesia induction was the main outcome. Secondary outcomes included induction compliance, emergence delirium, pain, and parental satisfaction. RESULTS The VR group had lower mYPAS-SF scores when leaving the waiting area (27.1, interquartile range, IQR 22.9-33.3 vs. 33.3, IQR 27.1-39.6; P = 0.006), and during anesthesia induction (29.2, IQR 22.9-33.3 vs. 39.6, IQR 33.3-55.2; P = 9×10-6). The Induction Compliance Checklist (ICC) scores during anesthesia induction were lower in the VR group (0.0, IQR 0.0-0.0 vs. 1.0, IQR 0.0-1.0; P = 0.003) than the control group, while parental satisfaction in the VR group was higher. CONCLUSION Virtual reality exposure as a preparation tool has a beneficial effect on anxiety, induction compliance and parental satisfaction in children undergoing elective surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As pediatric surgeries are rising and current methods to reduce perioperative anxiety are lacking in preschool children. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of video games on preoperative anxiety in 3- to-6-year old of a sample of Iranian children undergoing elective surgery children. MATERIALS AND METHODS In the current quasi-experimental pretest posttest design, after standard translation, the modified Yale preoperative anxiety scale was administered to 102 children undergoing surgery from December 2016 to August 2017 in Kermanshah, Iran. Children are assigned to an intervention or control group. Each child's anxiety was measured at two points at the time of arrival and after waiting for 20 min in the holding area. Data were analyzed by SPSS, version 22. The Chi-square, independent t-test, and paired t-test at the significance level of P < 0.05 were performed. RESULTS There was no significant difference between the mean anxieties in control group (42.58 ± 18.54) and intervention group (46.11 ± 14.09) before the game (P = 0.282). However, after playing the video game in control groups (53.26 ± 18.00) and game groups (34.88 ± 10.81), there was a significant difference in favor of the video game (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Findings of the present study suggest that approved video game by experts to decrease mean preoperative anxiety in 3- to-6-year-old children. Therefore, video games recommended to be implemented at the preventive level in hospital.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Our aim was to investigate whether early surgical preparation by reading an animated picture book about procedure-related events could reduce the preoperative anxiety in preschoolers. METHODS 131 patients, aged 3-6 years and underwent elective minor surgery were randomized either to a control or a picture book group. Both groups received general information about surgery and anesthesia in pre-anesthesia clinic. Patients in study group also received a surgery-depicting picture book for them to read at home a week earlier before surgery. Child anxiety was evaluated with the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale Short Form in six observing time points before anesthesia induction, and the compliance of anesthesia induction was assessed with the Induction Compliance Checklist (ICC). RESULTS There were significantly lower anxiety scores in picture book group than in control group at the time of ready for intravenous cannulation in operating room [51.9 (23.6) vs. 67.2 (22.0); mean difference 15.3; 95% confidence interval (CI) 6.4-24.1; P = 0.001] and at the time of pre-anesthesia visit [27.8 (7.6) vs. 33.2 (13.6); mean difference 5.3; 95%CI 0.93-9.8; P = 0.018]. No significant differences of anxiety levels were found between two groups at other observed time points: in the anesthesia outpatient clinic, in the holding area, at separation from parent to operating room (OR), and on entrance to OR (P = 0.584, 0.335, 0.228, 0.137, respectively). The percentage of children with poor induction compliance (i.e., ICC ≥ 6) was higher in control group compared with that in picture book group [38% vs.21%; odds ratio(95%CI): 0.78(0.61-0.99); P = 0.041]. CONCLUSIONS Home-reading an animated picture book to get familiar with the perioperative events earlier prior to surgery could effectively reduce the preoperative anxiety level and increase the compliance during the induction of anesthesia in preschool children.

Abstract
Background: After general anesthesia, many pediatric patients present with emergence delirium (ED). The aim of this study was to determine whether dexmedetomidine intranasal premedication accompanied by a cartoon video 30 min before general anesthesia would have an effect on reducing emergence delirium in preschool children. Methods: One hundred and forty children aged 3–6 year undergoing elective strabismus surgery were randomly to be premedicated with 2 μg kg−1 intranasal dexmedetomidine accompanied by the viewing of a cartoon video (Group DV) or without any premedication as usual (Group C). The primary outcome was the incidence of emergence delirium at the postanesthesia care unit (PACU), evaluated by the Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) scale. The secondary outcomes included: the Modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (mYPAS) upon separation from parents; the Induction Compliance Checklist score (ICC); the PACU discharge time; the parental satisfaction score; the incidences of the side effects and the Post-Hospital Behavior Questionnaire (PHBQ) score during the first day after surgery. Results: The incidence of emergence agitation (PAED score ≥ 10) was reduced in Group DV compared with Group C [8 (11.4%) vs. 24 (34.3%); P = 0.001]. None of the patients in the DV group experienced severe emergence agitation (PAED score ≥ 15), as compared with the C group (P = 0.006). The mYPAS score upon separation from parents (P < 0.001) and the incidence of poor coordination (ICC ≥ 4) during induction (P < 0.001) were significantly lower in Group DV than in Group C. In Group DV, the PACU discharge time was longer (P < 0.001), and the parental satisfaction score was higher (P < 0.001). However, during the first day after surgery, the PHBQ score was lower in Group DV compared with Group C (P = 0.001). Conclusions: Premedication with 2 μg kg−1 intranasal dexmedetomidine accompanied by cartoon video viewing can dramatically reduce emergence delirium in preschool children undergoing strabismus surgery, relieve preoperative anxiety and improve the parental satisfaction and the postoperative behavior changes during the first day after surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Preoperative education empowers children to approach surgery with positive expectations, and providers need efficient, child-focused resources. This study aimed to evaluate an interactive pop-up book as a tool for explaining surgery, managing preoperative anxiety, and strengthening coping strategies. STUDY DESIGN Prospective randomized controlled trial. SETTING Pediatric outpatient surgery center. METHODS Patients ages 5 to 12 undergoing outpatient surgery read a pop-up book about anesthesia (intervention) or received standard care (control). Patients self-reported their preoperative fear, pain expectations, views of the procedure and preoperative explanations, and coping strategies. Outcomes also included observer-rated behavioral anxiety and caregiver satisfaction. RESULTS In total, 148 patients completed the study. The pop-up book had a significant, large effect in reducing patients' fear of anesthesia induction (Cohen's d effect size = 0.94; P < .001). Intervention patients also expected less pain than control patients from the anesthesia mask and during surgery (d = 0.60-0.80; P < .001). The book encouraged more positive views of the procedure and preoperative explanations (P < .005). Furthermore, the book prepared patients to cope adaptively: intervention patients were significantly more likely to generate positive active coping strategies, distraction strategies, and support-seeking strategies (P < .001). Observer-rated behavioral anxiety at anesthesia induction did not differ between groups (P = .75). Caregivers in the intervention group were significantly more satisfied with each aspect of the surgical experience (P≤ .02). CONCLUSION The educational pop-up book offers a child-focused resource that helps alleviate children's preoperative fears, encourages positive coping, and improves caregivers' perceptions of the experience. This study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT04796077).

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this scoping review was to examine and map the range of nonpharmacological interventions used in the perioperative period to prevent anxiety in adolescents. INTRODUCTION Undergoing surgery involves experiencing fears and uncertainties that lead to an increase in anxiety levels. The interventions used to prevent anxiety in the perioperative period in adolescents must be appropriate to their developmental stage. INCLUSION CRITERIA Studies involving adolescents (10 to 19 years of age) undergoing any type of surgical procedure and specifying any nonpharmacological interventions administered to prevent anxiety, implemented in the perioperative period, were included in this review. METHODS A comprehensive search strategy using multiple databases was employed to find relevant studies. The databases search included MEDLINE via PubMed; CINAHL Plus with Full Text via EBSCO; Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials; LILACS; Scopus; Library, Information Science and Technology Abstracts; PsycINFO; JBI Connect+; and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. Sources of unpublished studies and gray literature were TDX - Tesis Doctorals en Xarxa (Spain); RCAAP - Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal; OpenGrey - System for Information on Grey Literature in Europe; and MedNar. Studies published in English, Spanish, or Portuguese were included. There was no date restriction, or geographical or cultural limitation applied to the search. The relevant studies and their reported outcomes were organized and analyzed. RESULTS The database search yielded 1438 articles, and three additional records were added after hand searching. Title, abstract, and full-text review identified 11 papers that met the inclusion criteria. The final data set represented 947 participants. The data were analyzed according to the type of nonpharmacological intervention, population, concept (outcome measured and tool used), context (physical location; preoperative vs. postoperative), frequency and duration of the intervention, and which professional team member implemented the intervention. Eight nonpharmacological interventions were identified, applied either in the preoperative or postoperative context. The nurses were the main professionals administering the nonpharmacological interventions to the adolescents. CONCLUSIONS A variety of nonpharmacological interventions were used in the perioperative period to prevent anxiety in adolescents. The most common interventions were music/musicotherapy and hypnosis/guided imagery. However, other interventions such as therapeutic play, preoperative preparation program, mothers' presence during the anesthesia induction, distraction, relaxation training, massage therapy, and reading were also identified. These interventions were used alone or in a combination of two interventions, either preoperatively or postoperatively. The adolescents in the early stage (10 to 14 years) were the most studied group and the adolescents in the late stage (17 to 19 years) were the least studied. Future research should focus on the implementation of nonpharmacological interventions in the perioperative period involving adolescents, particularly late adolescents. A systematic review on the effect of nonpharmacological interventions for anxiety management in adolescents in the perioperative period should be conducted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Educational health manga are used to promote health behavior change. This study thus seeks to achieve the following objectives: identify the emotional experience of reading educational health manga, understand the effects of facilitating the psychological mediators of behavior change through emotional experiences, and compare the effectiveness of educational health manga with conventional materials. DESIGN A non-randomized controlled trial with six conditions was conducted. Target behaviors were physical activity and healthy diet. Individuals aged 20-69 years (n = 1,680) were assigned three manga intervention conditions and three control conditions (visual image-based, narrative text, and general text material). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Participants were asked about their emotional experience while reading either intervention material or control material and its perceived positive influence on enhancing psychological mediators. RESULTS Four factors relevant to emotional experiences were identified: risk perception, familiarity, satisfaction, and realism. Emotional experience strongly predicted the psychological mediators of behavior change. Analysis of differences among the six conditions revealed that exposure to educational health manga led to greater satisfaction and increased knowledge. Participants assigned manga conditions experienced superior emotional experiences and outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Those assigned manga conditions experienced superior emotional experiences and outcomes. The efficacy of educational health manga in encouraging psychological mediators of change was confirmed.Trial registration: UMIN Japan identifier: UMIN000034369.

Abstract
PURPOSE Elective surgical procedures predictably cause stress and anxiety for children and their parents. This can have a negative effect on the child's short-term and long-term psychological and physiological outcomes. This narrative review examines perioperative child anxiety and existing interventions to reduce child and parent perioperative anxiety. The aim was to identify a need and gaps in knowledge for future study. DESIGN Peer-reviewed articles were examined to identify themes in the literature on interventions in place to reduce child and parent perioperative anxiety and to identify any gaps in knowledge for future study. METHODS A narrative review of 62 peer-reviewed articles was conducted. FINDINGS Evidence of themes aimed at lowering perioperative child anxiety using medication, cognitive educational, and play therapy approaches emerged through the literature search. A relationship between parental anxiety and the effect on the child's anxiety was supported, yet interventions that target the parent were limited cognitive education interventions and were found to be implemented only in a small number of hospitals. CONCLUSIONS A clear gap is the lack of research on the effects of parental interventions on the short-term and long-term negative behavioral and physiological outcomes of child perioperative anxiety. Research is needed to further explore the effect of a preoperative psychotherapeutic intervention to allow parents to express anxieties and discuss them with a trained professional in the absence of children. A systematic review or further research would help determine if a psychotherapeutic intervention for the parents would lower child anxiety perioperatively.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In Japan, two groups of women, HPV vaccinated and unvaccinated, are approaching age 20, when they should begin cervical cancer screening. To improve Japan's current poor cervical cancer screening rate, we need to know how these women are thinking about screening. METHODS We conducted an internet survey of 20-y-old women, exploring their understanding of HPV and cervical cancer screening. We then gave them leaflets with basic information about HPV and cervical cancer, stressing the importance of early detection by screening. We analyzed the leaflet's effects on their attitudes based on their vaccination status. RESULTS Our study of 618 women found a significantly higher intention for engagement for cervical cancer screening in women HPV-vaccinated as teenagers (29% versus 17%). They were also more aware that: (1) HPV is transmitted by sexual intercourse (49.1% versus 39.2%); (2) the HPV vaccine prevents cervical cancer (49.0% to 34.0%); and (3) the appropriate cervical cancer screening interval is every 2 y (63.3% versus 56.2%). Women in both groups responded well to the leaflet, with significant improvements in intention to receive screening. However, 65%-67% were not swayed. DISCUSSION HPV-vaccinated women were more knowledgeable about cervical cancer and had a greater intention to receive screening. Our educational leaflet was moderately effective in both groups for increasing intentions to screen, but the majority in both groups were still resistant to screening. CONCLUSION Japan needs to develop more effective educational programs and tools to vigorously impart the importance of cervical cancer screening.

Clark EKR, Sanghavi SS, Farrell S, Fritz Z. Development and evaluation of an illustrated paediatric leaflet 'Coming to Hospital: a guide to what goes on'. BMJ Paediatr Open 2021; 5:e000889. [PMID: 33644417 PMCID: PMC7883855 DOI: 10.1136/bmjpo-2020-000889] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2020] [Revised: 01/19/2021] [Accepted: 01/20/2021] [Indexed: 11/11/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND A paediatric information leaflet was produced to better prepare patients for time spent in hospital and to improve experience by informing them what to expect. METHODS The 'Coming to Hospital' leaflet was designed with input from paediatric research groups, and in collaboration with a children's author and publishing company. A questionnaire to evaluate the leaflet was developed; face validity was established in a pilot. The real-time patient experience of these leaflets was evaluated on paediatric wards in a university hospital. RESULTS The evaluation revealed that a significant majority of children 'really liked' the leaflet and found it helpful. 53 out of 72 of children reported that the leaflet made them feel 'happy' or 'calm', with no children responding that it made them feel 'very worried'. The leaflet was found to be informative, well presented and reassuring. Many parents stated that they wished they had received the leaflet prior to their child's first hospital visit. Suggestions for changes to the leaflet were minimal; it was considered to include all relevant information. CONCLUSION A leaflet designed by clinical staff, patients and a publishing company was welcomed by paediatric patients and their parents. Patients reported it made them feel calmer. Such a leaflet should be available widely to improve children's experience of coming to hospital. Collaborations between clinicians, academics and publishing companies can produce positive results for the paediatric population.

A retrospective cohort study of predictors and interventions that influence cooperation with mask induction in children. Paediatr Anaesth 2020; 30:867-873. [PMID: 32452092 DOI: 10.1111/pan.13930] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2019] [Revised: 05/05/2020] [Accepted: 05/17/2020] [Indexed: 11/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Uncooperative pediatric mask induction is linked to perioperative anxiety. Although some risk factors for uncooperative inductions have been reported, there are no large cohort studies that identify intrinsic patient characteristics associated with cooperation. AIM The primary aim was to identify patient characteristics associated with cooperative mask inductions. The secondary aim was to determine whether preoperative interventions were associated with increased cooperation. METHODS This retrospective cohort study included patients 2-11 years old and ASA class I-IV who underwent mask induction. Our primary outcome of interest was cooperation with mask induction, which was correlated against the Induction Compliance Checklist. The variables analyzed for association with cooperation were age, sex, ASA class, class of surgery, preferred language, and race. Interventions examined for association with induction cooperation included premedication with midazolam, exposure to distraction technology, parental presence, and the presence of a Child Life Specialist. Multivariate mixed-effects logistic regression was used to assess the relationship between patient characteristics and cooperation. A separate multivariate mixed-effects logistic regression was used to examine the association between preoperative interventions and cooperation. RESULTS 9692 patients underwent 23 474 procedures during the study period. 3372 patients undergoing 5980 procedures met inclusion criteria. The only patient characteristic associated with increased cooperation was age (OR 1.20, p-value 0.03). Involvement of Child Life Specialists was associated with increased cooperation (OR 4.44, p-value = 0.048) while parental/guardian presence was associated with decreased cooperation (OR 0.38, p-value = 0.002). CONCLUSION In this cohort, increasing age was the only patient characteristic found to be associated with increased cooperation with mask induction. Preoperative intervention by a Child Life Specialists was the sole intervention associated with improved cooperation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this review is to map the range of non-pharmacological interventions used during the perioperative period to prevent anxiety in adolescents. INTRODUCTION Evidence shows that 80% of adolescents report having experienced significant anxiety in the perioperative period. Non-pharmacological interventions implemented in the perioperative period are recommended as a resource to help to control anticipatory, separation and perioperative anxiety and fear related to surgical procedures in adolescents. INCLUSION CRITERIA This review will consider studies that focus on adolescents aged 10 to 19 who have undergone a surgical procedure, regardless of the type of surgery, and participated in non-pharmacological interventions aimed to prevent anxiety in the perioperative period. The intervention may be provided by any healthcare professional. Studies related to non-pharmacological interventions associated with hospitalization in a non-surgical context will be excluded. METHODS The methodology will follow the JBI recommendations for scoping reviews. Any published and unpublished sources of information will be considered. Studies published in English, Spanish and Portuguese will be included, with no geographical or cultural limitations. Duplicates will be removed and two independent reviewers will screen the abstracts and assess the full text of selected studies, based on the inclusion criteria. The results of study selection will be presented in a Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) flow diagram for scoping reviews. Data synthesis will be presented in a narrative summary to provide a description of the existing evidence.

Abstract
Several studies have shown the efficacy of psychological interventions in reducing preoperative anxiety in children undergoing surgery. This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of a specific non-pharmacological technique, the relaxation-guided imagery, in reducing both preoperative anxiety and postoperative pain in a sample of 60 children (6-12 years old) undergoing minor surgery who were randomly assigned to the experimental group (N = 30) or the control group (N = 30). The first group received the relaxation-guided imagery, before the induction of general anesthesia; the second group received standard care. The levels of preoperative anxiety and postoperative pain were assessed using, respectively, the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale and the Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, and Consolability Scale. The results showed a statistically significant difference between groups, with less anxiety and less pain for children included in the experimental group (p < .001; p < .001).Conclusion: Results suggest that relaxation-guided imagery reduces preoperative anxiety and postoperative pain in children. Future studies should focus on developing protocols and studying the eventual reduction of administered drugs for anesthesia and pain. What is Known: • Literature suggests the usefulness of relaxation-guided imagery in reducing anxiety and pain in the perioperative period. • Stronger evidences are needed to support the application of relaxation-guided imagery as routine care in pediatric surgery. What is New: • To our knowledge, this is the first randomized study to investigate the efficacy of relaxation-guided imagery in reducing preoperative anxiety and postoperative pain within a single pediatric sample. • The present study provides stronger evidence in an area that is lacking in research.

Abstract
Aim In Cambodia, the Japan Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Cambodian Society of Gynecology and Obstetrics have an on‐going project, started in 2015, for cervical cancer prevention and treatment. The project, currently aimed at factory workers, includes a women’s health education program that leads into cervical cancer prevention by establishment of a system for early detection and treatment. It begins by health education, screening for human papillomavirus (HPV), followed by colposcopy and quicker treatment of earlier precursor lesions. Methods Rates for participant screening, HPV test positivity, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) detection and distribution of HPV types were compared between two screening programs, factory‐based and hospital‐based. Some HPV test samples were divided into two, one of which was sent to Japan for a quality‐control check of the Cambodian testing. Results The factory‐based participant screening rate was 19% (128/681). HPV was detected more frequently in the factory‐based program participants (12%) than in the hospital‐based program participants (5%). Unfortunately, however, the rate of receiving proper secondary colposcopy screening among the HPV‐positive females was significantly higher in the hospital‐based program (94%) than the factory‐based program (40%) (P < 0.001). The Cambodian laboratory HPV testing accuracy was 92.6%. HPV types demonstrated no significant difference between the two prevention programs. Conclusion We could successfully introduce HPV‐based screening, starting from health education. However, low rate of screening, especially secondary screening for HPV positive factory workers was identified. Also, HPV testing could be further improved for accuracy through close monitoring.

Abstract
The extent of preoperative anxiety and its impact on physiological parameters during surgery and postoperative pain have been widely studied. Moreover, publications may be found that cover in detail various surgery types. The conclusions reached thus far have allowed to implement a number of procedures, not all of them based on drugs, with the goal of reducing anxiety and improving patient wellbeing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Preventive strategies are available to reduce preoperative anxiety in children, the ideal time for implementing such strategies remains poorly determined. AIMS The aim of this study was to determine psychological factors and events involved in the development of preoperative anxiety in children. METHODS This study consisted of prospective evaluations of anxiety trait and state during the preoperative period. Attendance at a preanesthetic consultation is obligatory for all patients undergoing surgery in France. Anxiety trait and state assessments were quantified in mothers and children before and after the preanesthetic consultation using visual analog and faces numerical scales. Preoperative anxiety in children was assessed immediately before induction of anesthesia using an analog scale. Other data recorded included demographic and medical data and type of hospital stay. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used. RESULTS Overall 111 consecutive patients were included. The following factors emerged leading to anxiety state at induction of anesthesia: maternal anxiety state before the preanesthetic consultation, a feeling of not being reassured by the anesthesiologist, maternal anxiety state after the consultation, and anxiety trait in the child. Logistic regression found this combination of factors (OR = 4 [1.4 -12]) and inpatient stay (OR = 3 [1.4-7]), predicting anxiety with an accuracy of 69%. CONCLUSION The present study identified a combination of psychological factors and events associated with the development of anxiety at induction of anesthesia in children. Parental anxiety impacts upon children and occurs before the preanesthetic consultation. This result may assist clinicians to prescribe personalized preventive strategies against anxiety.

Abstract
Background In Japan, the rate of cervical cancer screening is remarkably low, especially among women in their twenties and thirties, when cervical cancer is now increasing dramatically. The aim of this study was to test whether a modified government reminder for 20-year-old women to engage in cervical cancer screening, acting through maternal education and by asking for a maternal recommendation to the daughter to receive the screening, could increase their participation rate. Methods In two Japanese cities, 20-year-old girls who had not received their first cervical cancer screening before October of fiscal year 2014 were randomized into two study arms. One group of 1,274 received only a personalized daughter-directed reminder leaflet for cervical cancer screening. In the second group of 1,274, the daughters and their mothers received a combination package containing the same reminder leaflet as did the first group, plus an additional informational leaflet for the mother, which requested that the mother recommend that her daughter undergo cervical cancer screening. The subsequent post-reminder screening rates of these two study arms were compared. Results The cervical cancer screening rate of 20-year-old women whose mothers received the information leaflet was significantly higher than that for women who received only a leaflet for themselves (11% vs 9%, P = 0.0049). Conclusions An intervention with mothers, by sending them a cervical cancer information leaflet with a request that they recommend that their daughter receive cervical cancer screening, significantly improved their daughters’ screening rate.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
A virtual reality (VR) tour of the operating theatre before anaesthesia could provide a realistic experience for children. This study was designed to determine whether a preoperative VR tour could reduce preoperative anxiety in children.
Methods
Children scheduled for elective surgery under general anaesthesia were randomized into a control or VR group. The control group received conventional information regarding anaesthesia and surgery. The VR group watched a 4-min video showing Pororo, the famous little penguin, visiting the operating theatre and explaining what is in it. The main outcome was preoperative anxiety, assessed using the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (m-YPAS) before entering the operating theatre. Secondary outcomes included induction compliance checklist (ICC) and procedural behaviour rating scale (PBRS) scores during anaesthesia.
Results
A total of 69 children were included in the analysis, 35 in the control group and 34 in the VR group. Demographic data and induction time were similar in the two groups. Children in the VR group had a significantly lower m-YPAS score than those in the control group (median 31·7 (i.q.r. 23·3–37·9) and 51·7 (28·3–63·3) respectively; P < 0·001). During anaesthesia, the VR group had lower ICC and PBRS scores than the control group.
Conclusion
This preoperative VR tour of the operating theatre was effective in alleviating preoperative anxiety and increasing compliance during induction of anaesthesia in children undergoing elective surgery. Registration number: UMIN000025232 (http://www.umin.ac.jp/ctr).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Preoperative information is a legal and ethical obligation. Very few studies have evaluated the preoperative information method in pediatrics. Having a child operated on is stressful for parents. The use of Internet to look for data on the pathology and its treatment is frequent, but often unprofitable and sometimes even harmful. This study aimed to measure the impact of a leaflet, which supports spoken information in preoperative consultation, on parents' use of the Internet before surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS Prospective study including 178 patients of outpatient surgery, randomized into two groups: spoken information alone versus spoken information supported by a personalized leaflet, which is then handed out to the parents. The messages were identical: physiopathology, risks without treatment, surgical technique, possible complications, description of the hospitalization day, and postoperative care. Parental evaluation was carried out with self-administered questionnaires after the preoperative consultation, then on the day of surgery. At each moment the rate of Internet use, its reasons, and the benefits were evaluated. RESULTS The written document significantly reduced the use of the Internet by parents regardless of the child's age, their degree of anxiety, their level of understanding, and the time between consultation and the intervention. CONCLUSION This study confirms the significant impact of the leaflet as a communication tool in pediatric surgery and the substantial utility for parents. This encourages us to generalize this method to other pediatric surgery acts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study examined whether the comic book Neta and the Medikidz Explain JIA would improve disease-related knowledge and treatment adherence among patients with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). METHODS In this prospective cohort study, JIA patients answered 20 multiple-choice knowledge questions about their disease, before and after reading the comic book. Demographic, clinical, health-related quality of life and adherence data were recorded and correlated to the responses. RESULTS We studied 61 patients with a mean age of 14 ± 3.3 (range 8-18) years, 67% female, 83% Jewish and 17% non-Jewish. Thirty-nine percent had oligoarthritis, 13% systemic, 32% polyarthritis 11% psoriatic and 5% enthesitis-related type JIA. The disease was active in 46%, 40% were treated with biologics/disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs, and 34% were in remission on medication. Among the 53 patients who completed before and after quizzes, average score increased from 63 to 80% (P < 0.001). Non-Jewish patients initially scored lower than Jewish patients (48%), but their score increased to 79% after reading the comic book. Twenty-seven patients who also completed the quiz 1 year after the first reading retained their knowledge (79%). We did not find a statistically significant correlation between knowledge and age, sex, disease subtype, or Child Health Questionnaire quality of life scores. Adherence to medication use, physical therapy and rheumatology clinic visits were high at baseline; thus, these did not change after reading the comic. CONCLUSIONS The comic booklet Neta and the Medikidz Explain JIA is a good educational tool for increasing disease-related knowledge in children with JIA.

Abstract
Background. Screening for preoperative anxiety is an important challenge during the preoperative period. The aim of our study was to validate the faces scale used to detect anxiety trait in children. Methods. Children aged 8-18 yr were asked to quantify their anxiety trait using the readily available faces scale and to respond to the trait component of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) for children (C) or adults (A) before the anaesthesia consultation. Using receiver operating characteristics analysis, we determined the faces scale optimal value on a construct cohort. A validation cohort was recruited to assess the accuracy of the results. Results. The construction cohort comprised 207 patients and the validation cohort 91 patients. The receiver operating characteristics analysis found an area under the curve of 0.75 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.67, 0.83]. The optimal value for faces scale score was 4, with a sensitivity of 0.61 [95% CI 0.59, 0.62] and a specificity of 0.82 [95% CI 0.81, 0.83]. When this threshold was applied to the construction and validation cohorts, 61.3 and 44.4% of positives were true positives in the construction and validation cohorts, respectively; and 82.1 and 81.3% of negatives were true negatives, respectively. Conclusions. Our study determined the performance of a simple faces scale to measure the preoperative anxiety trait in children aged 8-18 yr. This tool is potentially helpful for clinicians aiming to identify patients at risk of preoperative anxiety and to assign them to targeted management.
