About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether Pranic healing, based on Rogers' therapeutic touch nursing theory, can reduce pain and improve cardiorespiratory indices during venipuncture in children. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does Pranic healing reduce the pain experienced by children during venipuncture? How does Pranic healing affect cardiorespiratory indices, such as heart rate, respiratory rate, and arterial oxygen saturation, during and after venipuncture?

Researchers will compare the effects of Pranic healing to routine care (without Pranic healing) to determine its effectiveness.

Participants will:

Receive Pranic healing or routine care before, during, and after venipuncture Have their pain levels, heart rate, respiratory rate, and arterial oxygen saturation measured Be randomly assigned to either the intervention group (Pranic healing) or the control group (routine care) Have their pain and physiological responses monitored and recorded during the procedure
