Audio Book Group
Audiobook will be applied during the entire IM injection procedure and until the end of the procedure. After the procedure is over, the children will be taken to the waiting area. After being allowed to rest for 1-2 minutes, the child will be asked to rate their level of pain and fear during the procedure. A parent who is with the child and observes the child's behavior, and the same nurse who is independent from the study, will independently rate the child's pain and fear level during the procedure.
Local Vibration Group
In the local vibration group, IM injection will be performed with a vibrating massage device. After the procedure is finished, the children will be taken to the waiting section. After being allowed to rest for 1-2 minutes, the child will be asked to rate their level of pain and fear during the procedure. A parent who is with the child and observes the child's behavior and the same nurse who is independent from the study will independently rate the pain and fear level of the child during the procedure.
