NCT ID NCT07535151
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether using an animal-shaped magic mirror during vaccination can reduce pain in children aged 1 to 4 years and lower anxiety in their mothers. About 126 mother-child pairs will take part, with some using the mirror and others receiving standard care. The goal is to find a simple, non-drug way to make shots less stressful.
