Abstract:
Objective To review the application of intelligent robots in the pain intervention of children,and identify the elements of the intervention,so as to guide future research and practice.Methods A literature search was performed in the PubMed,Cochrane Library,Embase,Web of Science,CINAHL,CNKI,Wanfang database,and CBM.Following the methodology of the scoping review,the retrieval time was from the establishment of the database to November 2023.The included studies were summarized and analyzed.Results A total of 10 articles were included,including 7 randomized controlled trials,2 quasi-experimental studies,and 1 mixed method research study.The working principles of intelligent robots in pain intervention for pediatric patients include distraction and pain empathy.Functions of intelligent robots included verbal interaction,limb motion,facial expression,and haptic recognition.Interventions included pre-intervention preparation,intervention content,and intervention duration,of which the intervention content included question-and-answer conversations,breathing exercises,recreation,and verbal encouragement,and the duration of the intervention ranged from 3 to 11 minutes.The outcome indicators included pain level,negative emotions,and feasibility.The results showed the positive feasibility of the application of intelligent robots in pain intervention for children,which may help to reduce the level of pain and improve children's negative emotions such as anxiety and distress.Conclusion Intelligent robots in the field of pain intervention of children present preliminary effects and feasibility.It is recommended that researchers should enrich the functions of intelligent robots,enhance human-robot interaction,carry out personalized interventions,and add physiological indexes as effect evaluation indexes to further validate its application effects.
