A Randomized Controlled Trial of Three Non-pharmacologic Analgesic Techniques for Casting of Clubfoot Infants
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Milk bottle administration, Water bottle administration, and 1 other intervention for Clubfoot. Completed, enrolled 33 participants.
Detailed Summary
While it has been shown that sucrose or milk ingestion decreases pain responses in heel sticks, no study up to this point has determined the best intervention for decreasing the pain response during casting for clubfoot deformity. The goal of this study is to investigate the effect of three different non-pharmacologic interventions (sucrose, milk, water) on pain response during clubfoot casting. This study will allow us to discern the best non-pharmacologic intervention for pain control during clubfoot casting and to provide a more pleasant, comfortable experience for patients and families.
