Summary
This study tested whether using bandages printed with cartoon characters helps children feel less fear, stress, and pain during burn dressing changes. 42 children aged 6-11 with second-degree burns were randomly assigned to get either cartoon or plain bandages. The goal was to see if a simple, child-friendly distraction could make a painful procedure more comfortable.
