Summary

This study tested two devices—Coolsense (cold) and Buzzy (cold + vibration)—to see if they could reduce pain and fear in children aged 6-12 during insulin injections. 90 kids with type 1 diabetes were split into three groups: one used Coolsense, one used Buzzy, and one received standard care. The goal was to make daily injections more comfortable for young patients.
