earn needles – National

So Paulo, 30 – Fathers and mothers who suffer or are stressed by the difficulties of vaccination, blood collection and punishment of children in laboratories and clinics should get help. Virtual reality videos promise to speed up procedures, distracting kids and teens, who watch videos for about two minutes during vaccination or blood sampling.

The administrator Daniel Libretti, 42, says that the vaccination of his daughter Laura, 7 years old, has always been laborious. The girl must be detained by several people and she cries a lot. That's why parents have been rewarded: if they take a vaccine, they get ice cream. He always had a scandal. He looked at the needle and caught it, said Libretti. In March, Laura was vaccinated against yellow fever and the virtual reality glbades were offered. He sank naturally. She let the experience tell me the story. Nothing else distracts you. We tried to show videos on the cell phone, but the reality glbades of a peripheral vision, he said.

Laboratories began adopting equipment for one year at c. the case of Delboni Auriemo from Itaim Bibi, south of So Paulo, where Libretti took Laura. The first site of the network to offer equipment for collecting blood, fist and vaccine. The idea of ​​extending to other units

The coordinator of the headquarters of Itaim-Bibi, Fabieni Pongeluppi, explains that the experience also works because it is in a logical environment: the entire collection room covered with stickers, Scooby-Doo characters! . Donkeys make the moment a delightful experience. No less pain, of course. The child will feel pain, but it will be a different moment. It will distract.

J Guilherme Amorim, 7 years old, was taken by me, the pharmacy Fernanda Amorim, 33, for a blood drive to Delboni. He even agreed to put the equipment on and was excited with the dinosaur video, but feeling the cotton in his arm, he quickly removed the donkeys. At first, it was to distract. But he was uncertain not to see what was happening. In a close, who knows?

Since June, the Hermes Pardini laboratory has also adopted glbades, but only for vaccination. Coordinator Melissa Palmieri says the procedure is more acceptable for donkeys. But, according to her, in every child who likes to use them at the time of examination. She estimates that about 15% are dangerous to sting without observing what is happening, like Guilherme.
