Video Distraction to Decrease Use of Sedation in Pediatric Participants During Radiation Therapy

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Malignant Neoplasm

In brief

This phase I pilot trial studies how well video distraction works to decrease the use of sedation in pediatric participants during radiation therapy. Radiation treatment requires participants to lie very still (for accuracy). Many children cannot do this without sedation. Watching movies during radiation may distract children so they don't need sedation to complete treatment.
