Nationwide Children's Hospital
The aim of this study is to test the feasibility of using Little NIRVANA (augmented reality (AR)) for managing anxiety and pain for children 2-8 years old during hospital emergency peripheral intravenous (PIV) insertions. The investigators hypothesize that Little NIRVANA plus a numbing cream will reduce pain and anxiety for patients undergoing PIV placement in the emergency department (ED) when compared to the cream alone. It is anticipated that using the Little NIRVANA will not increase the ED length of stay, failed PIV placement attempts, or the need for additional intervention.
This is a two-group randomized clinical trial of 65 dyads of subjects and their parent and 65 proceduralists. Children will be randomly assigned to either the Little NIRVANA intervention group or a standard of care control group. Legal guardians of children in both groups will answer questions about their child's prior history of needle procedures, current pain/anxiety, medications taken prior to ED arrival, and video game experience. Children assigned to the intervention will play the game during the PIV placement, while children in the control group will receive the standard of care. The pro…
Inclusion Criteria: * All patients undergoing PIV line placement (peripheral IV order placed while patient is in the ED); * Patients 2-8 years of age (inclusive) Exclusion Criteria: * Non-English speaking (Little NIRVANA is currently only available in English and Dutch); * those for whom utilizing AR is deemed not feasible by the attending ED physician (e.g., critical illness)
