NCT ID NCT07409220
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether showing parents a video along with the usual talk helps them agree to a lumbar puncture (spinal tap) for their child with suspected meningitis. About 154 parents of children aged 0–12 years will take part. One group gets standard verbal counseling, the other gets the same talk plus a video. Researchers will compare how many parents in each group accept the procedure.
