New study aims to take the fear out of allergy testing for children
NCT ID NCT07319273
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 07, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests whether child life services—special support to help kids cope with medical procedures—can reduce pain and fear during skin prick allergy tests. About 140 children aged 1-18 will either receive this extra support or standard care. Researchers will measure pain, how well kids cooperate, and how anxious parents feel.
