Effect of interesting games on relief of preoperative anxiety in preschool children

Purpose:To evaluate the effect of interesting games on reducing preoperative anxiety and improving compliance with anaesthesia in children.Methods:Ninety preschool-aged children undergoing elective surgery were randomly assigned to two groups.The children in the control group were admitted to a general preoperative room with one parent for 15e20 min,and were then taken into the anaesthesia room.During anaesthetic induction,the nurse attracted the children’s attention using an interesting game with encouragement and attention diversion.The children’s anxiety was assessed using the Modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale(mYPAS)when they entered the operating room,while they were waiting to undergo s0urgery,and during anaesthetic induction.Moreover,the children’s compliance with anaesthetic induction was assessed using the Induction Compliance Checklist(ICC).Results:No statistically significant differences in the mYPAS scores were observed between the two groups upon entering the operating room(p>0.05).The mYPAS scores were significantly lower in the experimental group than in the control group while waiting for surgery and during anaesthetic induction(p<0.05),while there were no significant differences in the mYPAS scores upon entering the operating room.The children’s compliance with anaesthetic induction was significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group(p<0.05).Conclusion:Engagement in an interesting game can reduce preschool-aged children’s preoperative anxiety and improve their compliance with anaesthetic induction.

Educational Game about Drugs for Visually Impaired People: A Comparison between Brazil and Portugal

Objective: To validate the educational board game “Drugs: playing fair” for visually impaired people in Brazil and Portugal. Methods: Study of apparent validation carried out in two associations for visually impaired people in Fortaleza, Brazil, and in Porto, Portugal. Thirty-six visually impaired people, 18 from each country, participated in the study. An evaluation tool with 23 items on specifications, content and motivation of the game was applied. Results: The scores awarded in both countries were excellent, with means varying in Brazil from 9.0 to 9.6 and in Portugal, from 8.4 to 9.2. As for the categories and subcategories, the best means in Brazil were: content (9.5);theoretical and methodological consistency (9.6) and concepts/information (9.5). In Portugal, the best means were concepts/information (9.2) and curiosity (9.2). Only two items showed a significant difference: “it allows interaction” (p = 0.024) and “compatible degree of difficulty” (p = 0.012). Conclusion: The educational game on drugs was validated in Brazil and Portugal.
