This trial examined whether children who watched a special therapeutic storytelling video before their allergy skin prick test experienced less anxiety and fear compared to children who received only standard care. The video, created with artificial intelligence and featuring characters guiding children through the procedure, was designed to prepare children mentally using age-appropriate language and gentle storytelling. Researchers measured anxiety levels, fear during the procedure, and how well children cooperated with the test.
Skin prick testing is a common way to diagnose allergies in children, but many kids feel significant anxiety and fear beforehand. This trial was created to see whether preparing children mentally with a calming video before the procedure could reduce their worry and help them cooperate better during the test.
If you were assigned to the video group, you would watch a therapeutic storytelling video at home twice—once on the evening your appointment was scheduled and again the night before your test. If you were in the standard care group, you would receive only routine verbal information about the procedure. On the day of your skin prick test, researchers measured your anxiety levels using age-appropriate scales and observed how you behaved during the actual test.
