    The Effects of Playing Digital Games on Children's Pain, Fear, and Anxiety Levels During Suturing: a Randomized Controlled Study
    (Wolters Kluwer Medknow Publications, 2023-07) Kavlakcı, Muhammet; Öğce, Filiz; Yavan, Tulay
    OBJECTIVE: The aim was to determine the effects of digital game play on children's pain, fear, and anxiety levels during suturing. METHODS: Data were obtained from 84 children between the ages of 8 and 17 years at the pediatric emergency department between January 16 and March 19, 2020, using the Socio-Demographic and Clinical Characteristics Form, the Wong-Baker Faces Pain Rating Scale (WBFPS), the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), the Fear of Medical Procedures Scale (FMPS), and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children (STAI-CH). A four-block randomization system was used. The study group (n = 42) played digital games during the suturing procedure, unlike the control group (n = 42). Ethical permissions were obtained from the ethical committee, hospital, and families. RESULTS: Before the suturing procedure, there was no statistically significant difference between the groups' mean scores. The intervention group was found to have statistically significantly lower WBFPS and VAS pain scores than the control group during the suturing procedure, and after the procedure, statistically significantly lower WBFPS, VAS, FMPS, and STAI-CH mean scores than the control group. CONCLUSIONS: The digital game-playing approach applied before and during the suture procedure was found to be effective in reducing children's pain, fear, and anxiety levels.

    Function, Pain and Dynamic Balance Before and After Kinesio Taping in Older Women With Knee Osteoarthritis: a Pilot Study
    (2022-06-30) Hantal, Sule Badıllı; Yeşilyurt, Seda Yakıt; Birinci, Tansu; Badilli, Feyza Sule
    Objective: The study aim to establish the effect of single-session Kinesio Taping (KT) application upon the function, pain, and dynamic balance in older women with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Materials and Methods: Thirty-women with unilateral knee (OA) were included. A single-session KT intervention was applied to the quadriceps-femoris and hamstrings muscles. All assessments were performed three times, before Kinesio taping, 30 minutes and 48 hours after taping. Functional level and pain were evaluated with the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), and the dynamic balance was evaluated with the libra-computerized balance device. Results: Symptoms (p=0.001), pain (p=0.001), function-daily life (p=0.001), quality of life (p=0.01) subscale scores of KOOS and bipedal (p=0.005) and affected side (p=0.002) dynamic balance results showed statistically significant improvements among the three time points. Conclusion: A single session Kinesio taping application provided a statistically significant improvement and a short-term positive effect, which did not cause clinically significant changes in the function, pain and dynamic balances of elderly women with unilateral knee osteoarthritis.
