Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The main aim of the project is to determine whether implementation of painless Intravenous cannulation with the help of EMLA cream will reduce patient pain scores and improve parent satisfaction scores in paediatric age group in the Emergency Room (ER)Timepoint: Base Line data 15 days Training 15 days Assessment of interventions 3 months | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To determine feasibility to achieve 100 % coverage and reduction of Visual Analogue scale (VAS) scores by 50 % when compared to pre-intervention data. This will be achieved by steady improvement in the numbers of patients undergoing pain-free Intravascular access up to 80 % of the total elective cannulations in the Emergency room. 3. To form a reference for feasibility study for the effective implementation of the same in a wider clientele after achieving an 80 % coverage in the ER Timepoint: 04 months | — |
