Furry friends fight fear: dogs tested to soothe Kids' surgery pain
NCT ID NCT05830201
Summary
This study is testing if having a specially trained, calm therapy dog present can help reduce pain and anxiety for children aged 3 to 10 who are having surgical pins removed from their elbow. The pin removal is a quick clinic procedure that can be uncomfortable and scary for kids. Researchers will measure the children's pain and anxiety levels to see if the dog provides a helpful distraction and comfort.
