Study Summary
Children with cancer undergo many procedures as part of their treatment, and are often hospitalized or have frequent clinic visits, which can be distressing. Using robots or toys may be promising interventions as they provide elements of distraction therapy to children undergoing stressful and painful medical procedures. The purpose of this study is to see whether the use of a robotic toy called My Special Aflac Duck will reduce distress in children who have been diagnosed with cancer. This multi-center study will involve 20 children, ages 3-10, at each of 8 hospitals and their parent or guardian. There will be a total of 160 participants enrolled nationally.
