First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether wearing eye masks and earplugs at night for three nights could help prevent confusion (delirium) and reduce pain in children aged 6-12 in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). 74 children were randomly assigned to either wear the sleep aids or receive standard care. The goal was to see if blocking light and noise could improve comfort and mental clarity without medication.
