Play, not pills: new sleep routine helps toddlers through cancer treatment
NCT ID NCT06443632
Summary
This study tested a special sleep routine called WASPE as an alternative to sedation for young children (0-4 years old) needing radiation therapy for cancer. The routine involved adjusting sleep schedules with activities like playing, watching videos, and having snacks to help children stay still for treatment while naturally napping. Researchers compared this gentle approach to standard sedation to see if it was a safe and effective way to help children complete their treatment.
