Scientific title | Improving access to preparatory information for children undergoing general anaesthesia for surgical dental procedures and their families |
Study objectives | Phase III evaluation will use a double-blind three-armed RCT design. The clinical trial will recruit up to 210 children and will compare the web-based version of the package against standard care and another non-medical game. Distress will be assessed through evaluation of the childs behaviour during the visit and parental reports of physical and psychological morbidity. The views of parents and children will be sought; the mode of usage of the web-based package will be automatically recorded and the impact on the service e.g. recovery time and throughput will be reported. At least 53 in each group will be required for 90% statistical power. The Phase III study primary outcome measures: (1) patient experience: acceptance of anaesthetic induction; child co-operation/distress; reduction of peri- and post-operative morbidity; child and family satisfaction and (2) service improvement: anaesthetic time/improvement in throughput. Measures will be administered at baseline, at the time of the GA treatment visit and then at 48 hours and 1 week later. |
Ethics approval(s) | 10/H0802/41 |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Topic: Oral and Gastrointestinal, Generic Health Relevance and Cross Cutting Themes; Subtopic: Oral and Gastrointestinal (all Subtopics), Generic Health Relevance (all Subtopics); Disease: Oral & Dental, Anaesthetics |
Intervention | The clinical trial will compare the web-based version of the package against standard care and another non-medical game. Online serious game intervention will include: modelling appropriate behaviour, coping skill teaching, provision of information in a developmentally appropriate manner and parent involvement (how to help their child get the most out of the intervention and what they can do themselves to improve their childs GA experience). Study Entry: Multiple Randomisations |
Intervention type | Other |
Primary outcome measure | 1. Blind observer VAS scores of behaviour at anaesthetic induction 2. Child cooperation and dist |
Secondary outcome measures | Automatic recording of internet package usage will occur. |
