About this trial
The goal of this explorative observational study is to map the procedure and child centered approach in the examination for children that undergo conventional X-ray examinations. The main questions aim to answer:
* How many images need to be retaken during conventional X-ray examinations? * What is the reason why the pictures need to be redone? * What is the time required for the various examinations? * What experience of the procedure of the examination is there among those involved? * Can the physical impact be observed through variation in heart rate in children that undergo conventional X-ray examinations?
Participants will answer questionnaires about the children's participation in the procedure and the variation in heart rate will be measured on the children who undergo the examinations.
