Brief summary
Peripheral venous catheterization, which involves the placement of an invasive device into the lumen of a peripheral vein, is a commonly used procedure in children receiving hospital treatment.IV insertion is a particularly painful and stressful experience for children. This is because children have more limited coping skills than adults. This study was designed as a randomized controlled trial to examine the effect of sticker intervention on pain and anxiety experienced during IV insertion.
Detailed description
The study consists of an sticker group and a control group. Participants will be assigned to groups using stratified randomization. Anxiety levels in both groups will be assessed using the Children's Anxiety Scale-State (ÇAS-D), while pain levels will be evaluated by both the child and the researcher using a visual pain scale before, during, and after the procedure.For children in both groups, 10 minutes before the intravenous procedure, both the child and the researcher will rate the child's anxiety and pain using scales.During the IV procedure, the researcher will place the sticker chosen by the child on the IV insertion site. Meanwhile, the researcher will rate the child's anxiety and pain using scales. No sticker will be placed on the IV insertion site of the control group, and the child's anxiety and pain will be rated using scales.For both groups, 10 minutes after the intravenous procedure, both the child and the researcher will rate the child's anxiety and pain using scales.
Interventions
BEHAVIORALcontrol group
Children in the control group will not undergo any procedures other than routine hospital procedures. Children's anxiety and pain will be assessed based on both the researcher's and the child's reports before, during, and after the procedure, following consent from the mothers.

Intervention model description
Before implementing data collection tools, children and mothers will be informed, and data will be collected through face-to-face interviews using data collection forms after obtaining consent from those who agree to participate in the study. Children in the sticker group will be provided with stickers by the researcher during the application phase, which they can choose according to their own preferences.Children's anxiety and pain will be assessed based on both the researcher's and the child's reports before, during, and after the procedure, following consent from the mothers.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Outcome Measures | For children in both groups: Ten minutes before the intravenous procedure, during the procedure, and ten minutes after the procedure, both the child and the researcher will rate the child's anxiety and pain using scales. | The outcome measures for the sociodemographic data of the study will be collected using an Information Form containing questions about the child's age, gender, and descriptive characteristics such as whether they have previously had an intravenous catheter inserted. |

| 2. Outcome Measures | For children in both groups: Ten minutes before the intravenous procedure, during the procedure, and ten minutes after the procedure, both the child and the researcher will rate the child's pain using scales. | Visual Pain Scale: The scale is a 10 cm line scaled from 1 to 10 to determine the severity of pain in children, with 10 representing maximum pain and 0 representing no pain. Patients are asked to mark a spot on the scale according to the pain they feel. |
| 3. Outcome Measures | For children in both groups: Ten minutes before the intravenous procedure, during the procedure, and ten minutes after the procedure, both the child and the researcher will rate the child's anxiety using scales. | Child Anxiety Scale-State (CAS-D): The scale is designed in the shape of a thermometer. Each horizontal line on the thermometer represents one point, and the light bulb at the bottom represents 0 points. As you move upward, the score increases, with a maximum of 10 points. A score of 0 on the scale indicates no anxiety, while a score of 10 indicates the highest level of anxiety. |
