In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Child life intervention and Music listening for Conscious Sedation. Completed, enrolled 63 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The role of Adjunct therapies such as Child Life therapy and Music listening during Procedural Sedation and Analgesia(PSA) for children during painful procedures has not been studied in the Emergency Department (ED).
