Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the amount of anxiety and pain felt by children during procedures that require a needle stick after using a topical anesthetic or placebo cream.

Primary Outcome

Pain was measured immediately after venipuncture by the participant using the six-point FACES scale. "FACES" in not an acronym, but rather a description of a pain scale that uses pictures of faces in various states of pain. The FACES pain scale is a common scale used to measure pain with scores on a scale. The scale we used had six points from zero (0) to five (5) indicating different levels of pain. Lower scores indicate lower levels of pain, and higher scores indicate higher levels of pain.
