Abstract

Background: Intravenous (IV) Line Insertion is a procedure that involves puncturing a vein and causing significant pain and stress in children. The pain and fear experienced during childhood can increase the potential for avoiding medical care in adulthood. Aims: to determine the effectiveness of providing cartoon video distraction in reducing pain in children undergoing IV drips Method: This study was conducted in the Emergency Room of Dr. Soerojo Hospital in November - December 2024 involving 66 children who were going to receive IV treatment, the research sample was divided into two groups, namely the intervention group and the control group. The intervention group received treatment in the form of watching cartoon videos for 5 to 10 minutes, while the control group received standard therapy in the form of deep breathing distraction techniques. Result: There was a significant difference in the pain scale in children who received distraction techniques by watching cartoon videos compared to children who only received standard therapy when the infusion was installed (p value = 0.001). Conclusion: Providing cartoon video distractions has been proven effective in reducing pain in children undergoing Intravenous puncture.
