Umamaheswari Pakkirisamy, Dr. Pradeep V. S
Abstract: Assessment and treatment of pain in children is challenging. The presence of parents and the distraction of the children from pain perception during the procedure can help the nurse to achieve adequate pain management for children. The present study evaluated the planned teaching program's effectiveness on knowledge regarding reducing procedural pain of children with play intervention among parents in a selected hospital, Lucknow. A convenient sampling technique was used to collect data from sixty parents. The Pre experimental, one group pre and post test design was used. The result showed that 54 (90%) parents had inadequate knowledge, 06 (10%) had moderately adequate knowledge, and no one had adequate knowledge during pre test. In post test, 23 (38.33%) had moderately adequate knowledge, 37 (61.67%) had adequate knowledge, and no one had inadequate knowledge. While comparing the total level of knowledge between the pre - test and post - test, the difference mean value was 10.10 with a standard deviation of 2.96, and the calculated t - value was 26.41. The standard error of the mean was 0.38. It was statistically significant at the P<0.05 level. This shows that the planned teaching programme on knowledge regarding the reduction of children's procedural pain with play intervention among parents was very effective in increasing parents' knowledge.
