Summary
This study tested a simple, drug-free method called WASPE to help children aged 0-4 stay still during radiation therapy for cancer. Instead of using sedation, the approach uses activities like watching videos, playing outdoors, and eating snacks to keep the child awake and calm before treatment. The goal was to see if this could replace the need for sleep medication, making the process easier and safer for young patients.
