About this trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether Pranic healing, based on Rogers' therapeutic touch nursing theory, can reduce pain and improve cardiorespiratory indices during venipuncture in children. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does Pranic healing reduce the pain experienced by children during venipuncture? How does Pranic healing affect cardiorespiratory indices, such as heart rate, respiratory rate, and arterial oxygen saturation, during and after venipuncture?
Researchers will compare the effects of Pranic healing to routine care (without Pranic healing) to determine its effectiveness.
Participants will:
Receive Pranic healing or routine care before, during, and after venipuncture Have their pain levels, heart rate, respiratory rate, and arterial oxygen saturation measured Be randomly assigned to either the intervention group (Pranic healing) or the control group (routine care) Have their pain and physiological responses monitored and recorded during the procedure
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers

Treatments tested in this trial
Pranic Healing
BehavioralThe Pranic Healing intervention will be applied according to the advanced protocol by Master Choa Kok Sui, involving seven key techniques: sensitizing the hands, scanning the aura, cleansing the aura, increasing receptivity, energizing with prana, stabilizing the projected prana, and releasing. The intervention will take place in three stages: 5 minutes before, during, and 5 minutes after venipuncture.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
1
Pain Levels During Venipuncture
The primary outcome measure will assess changes in pain levels experienced by children during venipuncture. Pain will be evaluated using the Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale, which is a validated tool for measuring pain in pediatric patients. The Wong-Baker FACES Pain Rating Scale ranges from 0 to 10, with 0 indicating "no pain" and 10 indicating "the worst pain possible." Higher scores represent worse pain outcomes.
Time frame
Pain levels will be measured at three time points: 5 minutes before venipuncture, during venipuncture, and 5 minutes after venipuncture.Secondary outcomes
1
Changes in Arterial Oxygen Saturation
This secondary outcome measure will evaluate the changes in arterial oxygen saturation levels before, during, and after venipuncture. Oxygen saturation will be monitored using a pulse oximeter.
Time frame
Arterial oxygen saturation will be recorded at 5 minutes before venipuncture, during venipuncture, and 5 minutes after venipuncture.2
Changes in Respiratory Rate
The respiratory rate of children will be monitored to observe any changes due to the Pranic Healing intervention. The rate will be measured in breaths per minute.
Time frame
Respiratory rate will be measured 5 minutes before venipuncture, during venipuncture, and 5 minutes after venipuncture.3
Changes in Pulse Rate
The pulse rate of children will be assessed to detect any variations due to the Pranic Healing intervention. Pulse rate will be measured in beats per minute.
Time frame
Pulse rate will be recorded at 5 minutes before venipuncture, during venipuncture, and 5 minutes after venipuncture.Sponsors and contacts
