“…Of the nine studies identified, four were quasi-experimental in design (Bloch & Toker, 2008; Brewer, Gleditsch, Syblik, Tietjens, & Vacik, 2006; Hatava et al, 2000; Zahr, 1998) and five were randomized controlled trials (Burns-Nader, Hernandez-Reif, & Thoma, 2013; Li, Lopez, & Lee, 2007; Li & Lopez, 2008; Wee, Chan, Cheung Li & Hong-Gu, 2014; Wolfer & Visintainer, 1975). …”

“…Two of the studies used some form of medical play (directed and one non-directed) provided by child life specialists (Brewer et al, 2006; Burns-Nader et al, 2013). The Burns-Nader, Hernandez-Reif, and Thoma (2013) study contained four activities occurring in a pediatrician's office: non-directed medical play, a medical information video consisting of a taped play session, diversionary play using a board game and a control safari video.…”

“…The study by Burns-Nader et al (2013), however, had conflicting findings in that the children who received non-directed medical play had more difficult behaviors and lower moods at a pediatrician's visit than did those who watched a video or engaged in activities unrelated to the medical setting.…”

Directed medical play is used to reduce children's pain and distress during medical treatment. In this pilot study, young children who attended the burn clinic received either directed medical play provided by a child life specialist or standard preparation from the burn clinic nurse, to prepare for their first dressing change. Data were collected using validated instruments. Children who participated in medical play experienced less distress during their dressing change (M= 0.5, n=12) than those receiving standard preparation (M=2.0, n=9). Children who received standard care reported a 2 point increase in pain during the procedure whereas children who participated in medical play reported a 1 point increase. Change in parental anxiety was similar for both groups. Parent satisfaction was higher for caregivers who observed medical play than standard preparation. Although all findings were in the hypothesized direction, none were statically significant, most likely because of the small sample size.

BackgroundVirtual reality (VR) computer technology creates a simulated environment, perceived as comparable to the real world, with which users can actively interact. The e ectiveness of VR distraction on acute pain intensity in children is uncertain. ObjectivesTo assess the e ectiveness and adverse e ects of virtual reality (VR) distraction interventions for children (0 to 18 years) with acute pain in any healthcare setting. Search methodsWe searched CENTRAL, MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, PsycINFO and four trial registries to October 2019. We also searched reference lists of eligible studies, handsearched relevant journals and contacted study authors. Selection criteriaRandomised controlled trials (RCTs), including cross-over and cluster-RCTs, comparing VR distraction to no distraction, non-VR distraction or other VR distraction. Data collection and analysisWe used standard Cochrane methodological processes. Two reviewers assessed risk of bias and extracted data independently. The primary outcome was acute pain intensity (during procedure, and up to one hour post-procedure). Secondary outcomes were adverse e ects, child satisfaction with VR, pain-related distress, parent anxiety, rescue analgesia and cost. We used GRADE and created 'Summary of findings' tables. Main resultsWe included 17 RCTs (1008 participants aged four to 18 years) undergoing various procedures in healthcare settings. We did not pool data because the heterogeneity in population (i.e. diverse ages and developmental stages of children and their di erent perceptions and reactions to pain) and variations in procedural conditions (e.g. phlebotomy, burn wound dressings, physical therapy sessions), and consequent level of pain experienced, made statistical pooling of data impossible. We narratively describe results.We judged most studies to be at unclear risk of selection bias, high risk of performance and detection bias, and high risk of bias for small sample sizes. Across all comparisons and outcomes, we downgraded the certainty of evidence to low or very low due to serious study limitations and serious or very serious indirectness. We also downgraded some of the evidence for very serious imprecision. Virtual reality distraction for acute pain in children (Review)
