First seen Jun 14, 2026 · Last updated Jun 14, 2026
Summary
This study tested if a social robot could help children aged 4-12 with chronic diseases feel less fear and pain during a blood draw. 90 children were split into three groups: one that played with a robot, one that played a digital game, and one that received standard care. The goal was to see if the robot provided a better distraction and helped kids recover emotionally after the procedure.
