Deze uitgangsvraag bevat de volgende subvragen:
-
Wat is de rol van niet-farmacologische (psychologische) technieken voor PSA bij kinderen?
-
Wat is de rol van niet-farmacologische (fysieke) technieken voor PSA bij kinderen?
Aanbeveling
Zet niet-farmacologische technieken doelmatig en doelgericht in, op elk moment van het proces en passend bij de individuele voorkeuren, kenmerken en eerdere ervaringen van het kind.
Zorg bij PSA dat de kennis en vaardigheden aanwezig zijn om het fysieke, emotionele en psychische welzijn van het kind te waarborgen, zowel voor, tijdens als na afloop van een procedure, zoals beschreven in de Rights Based Standards. De hoofdbehandelaar en sedationist zijn verantwoordelijk voor de omgeving, interprofessionele afstemming en rolverdeling (zie hiervoor de generieke module over verantwoordelijkheden in de richtlijn PSA bij volwassenen).
Maak indien nodig gebruik van de expertise van de medisch pedagogisch zorgverlener (MPZ). Voor sommige kinderen geldt dat PSA alleen maar gepland kan worden wanneer de medisch pedagogisch zorgverlener beschikbaar is.
Overwegingen
Voor- en nadelen van de interventie en de kwaliteit van het bewijs
Op basis van de conclusies uit de literatuursamenvatting voor de uitkomstmaat pijn lijkt de kwaliteit van het bewijs onvoldoende om conclusies te kunnen trekken over de effecten van het gebruik van psychologische en/of fysieke interventies. Dit geldt ook voor de uitkomstmaten angst en procedureel succes. De kwaliteit van het bewijs is voor alle uitkomsten zeer laag, dit is met name het gevolg van kleine studies, grote heterogeniteit in zowel de interventies, controle-interventies en de resultaten. Het ligt voor de hand dat gestandaardiseerde interventies mogelijk heterogene effecten hebben, afhankelijk van de context en van de voorkeuren van de patiënt. Daarnaast zijn de aantallen patiënten laag. Er zijn geen studies gevonden die de patiëntvoorkeuren of PROM’s als uitkomstmaat hebben gerapporteerd. In het algemeen kan de literatuursamenvatting daarom geen richting geven aan de besluitvorming omtrent de onderzochte interventies.
Het ondergaan van een medische procedure kan voor kinderen een angstige en stresserende aangelegenheid zijn. PSA kan uitkomst bieden, maar is op zichzelf geen garantie voor een comfortabele ervaring. De zogenaamde procedurele distress die door kinderen wordt ervaren, kan worden beschouwd als een samenspel tussen de angst voor de procedure, de pijn die erbij gepaard gaat en focus hierop (Baxter, 2013). Procedurele distress als multifactorieel fenomeen vraagt daarom ook om een multimodale aanpak.
De inzet van niet-farmacologische technieken bij PSA wordt om deze reden beschouwd als een essentiële voorwaarde om te komen tot een succesvolle, comfortabele ervaring voor het kind waarbij naast de fysieke veiligheid ook de psychologische veiligheid geborgd blijft.
De term “niet-farmacologie” is een parapluterm voor een zeer grote verscheidenheid aan technieken die ieder verschillende (en soms zelfs wisselende) onderliggende werkzame mechanismen/elementen kunnen bevatten. Het opblazen van een ballon kan bijvoorbeeld een fysieke (ontspannings-)respons teweegbrengen, maar ook werkzaam zijn als afleiding of het effect geven van een positieve verwachting. Met name het zelf kiezen voor een strategie kan zorgen voor een gevoel van controle en autonomie en daarmee leiden tot een afname van angst (Birnie, 2019; Koller, 2012). De niet-farmacologische strategieën die worden ingezet dienen dan ook passend te zijn bij het doel wat men wil bereiken. Grof gezegd kan onderscheid gemaakt worden tussen technieken die gericht zijn op angstreductie en technieken die de aandacht van het kind sturen en verleggen (zie figuur 1).
Naast de grote variatie in beschikbare technieken, bestaat er een minstens zo grote variatie aan kindfactoren waaronder variaties in ontwikkelingsniveau, psychopathologie, temperament, coping, individuele voorkeuren, mate van angst en eerdere ervaringen. Gemiddelde effecten uit literatuurstudies zijn hierdoor beperkt toepasbaar op het individu. De uitdaging en de sleutel ligt in het identificeren van de aanleg, voorgeschiedenis en voorkeuren van het kind. Het zorgvuldig kunnen triëren, inschatten en individualiseren van de best passende niet-farmacologische strategieën is dan ook een onmisbare niet te onderschatten professionele competentie (Koller, 2012). De medisch pedagogisch zorgverlener (MPZ) kan hier een belangrijke rol in vervullen. Evenals ouders die een belangrijke bron van informatie kunnen zijn. Hoe complexer het kind is, hoe meer relevant de informatie van ouders/verzorgers is om de juiste strategie te kunnen bepalen.
Zorgprofessionals die PSA uitvoeren, dienen te beschikken over een grote variatie aan niet-farmacologische technieken en in staat te zijn deze doelmatig toe te passen en individualiseren naar gelang de behoeften van het kind, en zo nodig aan te passen wanneer de situatie daarom lijkt te vragen.
Daarnaast is het effect van de niet-farmacologische technieken afhankelijk van het vermogen van de professional om een connectie te maken met het kind en ouders en een setting van vertrouwen te creëren. Binnen deze setting ontstaat co-creatie en komen de gezamenlijk gekozen niet-farmacologische strategieën optimaal tot hun recht. Het is zinvol om het plan van te voren zorgvuldig te doorlopen met ouder(s)/verzorgers en de betrokken zorgprofessionals.
Tot slot verdient de rol van de ouder/verzorger hier expliciet benoemd te worden. Ouders/verzorgers zijn immers expert over hun eigen kind en kunnen waardevolle ideeën hebben over welke niet-farmacologische strategieën effectief zouden kunnen zijn. Echter, met betrekking tot de aanwezigheid van ouders/verzorgers tijdens medische procedures is bekend dat de aanwezigheid op zichzelf niet leidt tot een aantoonbare vermindering van angst of verhoging van medewerking van het kind. Een angstige ouder/verzorger heeft daarentegen wel degelijk een negatief effect op de gemoedstoestand van het kind. Afwezigheid van ouders is echter niet gewenst. Het voorlichten en coachen van ouders/verzorgers om op een kalme ondersteunende manier aanwezig te zijn, het aanleren van voorbereidende en/of afleidende strategieën dient daarom mee te worden genomen in het plan van aanpak. (Bevan 1990, Manyande 2015).
Waarden en voorkeuren van patiënten (en evt. hun verzorgers)
Het vermijden van pijn en angst bij kinderen dient evenzo belangrijk te zijn als de medische verrichting zelf. Kinderen hebben ook bij medisch handelen recht op de beste zorg. Zoals ‘Artikel 9’ beschrijft van het Handvest Kind & Zorg: Zieke kinderen worden beschermd tegen onnodige behandelingen en onderzoeken en maatregelen worden genomen om pijn, lichamelijk ongemak en emotionele spanningen te voorkomen dan wel te verlichten (art.3,12,17 VRK).
Voor het kind is het (op korte termijn) van belang dat de procedure zo comfortabel mogelijk verloopt, met zo min mogelijk angst, pijn en stress gepaard gaat en dat psychotrauma wordt voorkomen. Op lange termijn is het doel om het vertrouwen van het kind in de zorg(verleners) te behouden en daarmee zorgmijding en onderbehandeling te voorkomen.
Subgroepen die in het bijzonder kwetsbaar zijn en gebaat zijn bij goede ervaringen zijn langdurig of chronisch zieke kinderen, kinderen met psychopathologie en/of een ontwikkelingsachterstand of communicatieve beperking. Tegelijk vormt deze subgroep voor de professional een uitdaging omdat voorbereiding, afstemming met ouders/verzorgers en professionals onderling een vereiste is en niet alle niet-farmacologische technieken even effectief zullen zijn.
Het is van groot belang in het voorbereidende proces en tijdens interventies steeds bewust te zijn van samen beslissen met zowel kind als ouders/verzorgers volgens de geldende WGBO regels. Naast dat kinderen het recht hebben om samen met ouders en zorgprofessional te beslissen blijkt uit onderzoek dat het positieve effecten voor het kind heeft. Het Samen Beslissen heeft volgens Coyne en Harder (2011) voor kinderen als positief effect dat zij meer bereid zijn om mee te werken bij een behandeling, pijnlijke behandelingen geduldiger ondergaan, minder boosheid ervaren, beter om kunnen gaan met het begrijpen van hun ziekte en behandeling en beter herstellen.
Kosten (middelenbeslag)
Niet-farmacologische technieken brengen op zichzelf weinig kosten met zich mee. Directe (personele) kosten zijn er in de vorm van tijd en aandacht tijdens, voorafgaand aan en na de interventie. Indirecte kosten zijn verbonden aan het opleiden en deskundig maken van personeel.
In de Rights Based Standards (Bray, 2021) wordt beschreven dat kinderen het recht hebben om verzorgd te worden door professionals die beschikken over de juiste kennis en vaardigheden om hun fysieke, emotionele en psychische welzijn te waarborgen, zowel voor, tijdens als na afloop van een procedure. Naast deze ethische en humane aspecten, zorgt het voorkomen van angst en psychotrauma voor een belangrijke kostenbesparing op de daarbij benodigde intensieve en soms langdurige psychologische behandelingen om deze gevolgen terug te dringen (met alle impact op het hele leven van het kind en gezin). Tevens zal een positieve ervaring voor het kind ook leiden tot behoud van vertrouwen in de zorg/zorgverlener. Dit kan worden beschouwd als een duurzame uitkomstmaat, omdat er aanwijzingen zijn dat dit leidt tot een betere arts-patiëntrelatie, betere behandeluitkomsten (bij een coöperatieve patiënt), kortere herstelperioden, minder mislukte procedures, minder vermijding van zorg of no-shows, en een goede medewerking bij volgende ingrepen.
Aanvaardbaarheid, haalbaarheid en implementatie
Met betrekking tot implementatie is het opleiden en competent maken van professionals om hen de juiste kennis, attitudes, vaardigheden en technieken aan te leren van belang. Dit vraagt tijd (leerproces) en brengt kosten met zich mee.
Bij voorkeur zijn zowel de zorgprofessionals die de PSA uitvoeren, als de zorgprofessionals die de procedure uitvoeren bekwaam en in staat om tussen meerdere scenario’s te schakelen.
Het waarborgen van continuïteit van deze zorg verdient tevens aandacht bij implementatie; in de avonden of weekenden, op verschillende afdelingen, bij afwezigheid van medisch pedagogische zorg (MPZ).
Rationale van de aanbeveling: weging van argumenten voor en tegen de interventies
Vanuit humaan perspectief hebben kinderen recht op de beste zorg (internationaal verdrag rechten van het kind).
Onderbouwing
Achtergrond
Rondom medische procedures bij kinderen wordt veelvuldig gebruik gemaakt van niet-farmacologische technieken. Bekende voorbeelden hiervan zijn voorbereiden en informeren, afleiding door middel van fysiek of digitaal spel en het doelgericht verleggen van de focus door middel van suggestie, visuele technieken, focustaal en/of hypnotische technieken. Fysieke technieken (bijvoorbeeld vibratie al dan niet in combinatie met lokaal koelen) is intussen een veelgebruikte methode voor lokale pijnstilling. Ook het doelgericht inzetten van de ouders/verzorgers, het streven naar comfortabele posities en processen en het doseren van zintuigelijke prikkels kunnen worden beschouwd als niet-farmacologische onderdelen van een beleid gericht op comfort.
Hoewel voor sommige van deze technieken wetenschappelijk bewijs bestaat, is het onduidelijk hoe deze technieken het best in de praktijk kunnen worden toegepast.
Vast staat dat vele niet-farmacologische technieken inconsistent worden ingezet. Zo blijken sommige technieken (bijvoorbeeld toegepast door de medisch pedagogisch zorgverlener) alleen tijdens kantoortijden inzetbaar te zijn. Andere technieken zoals Virtual Reality, digitale projecties en focustaal worden tegenwoordig door velen omarmd, terwijl de wetenschappelijke onderbouwing voor gebruik op de kinderleeftijd nog beperkt is en ze niet op alle leeftijden en voor alle kinderen even effectief blijken. Niet-farmacologische technieken hebben een sterk wisselende effectiviteit afhankelijk van voor wie en door wie ze worden toegepast. Het zijn met andere woorden methodes waarvan het succes sterk contextueel wordt bepaald. Precies deze ideale context is tot op heden amper onderwerp van onderzoek geweest.
Het is onduidelijk hoe niet-farmacologische technieken het beste in de dagelijkse werkprocessen kunnen worden ingezet, hoe de individueel best passende methode kan worden gekozen en welke deskundigheden medische en verpleegkundige zorgprofessionals nodig hebben om ze in te bouwen in hun procedurele processen.
Ten slotte is het concept ‘niet-farmacologische techniek’ een betrekkelijk betekenisloos containerbegrip waaronder zeer uiteenlopende cognitieve, psychologische, communicatieve en fysieke methodes worden verstaan. Dit maakt het onmogelijk om over ‘niet-farmacologie’ een eenduidige literatuurstudie te verrichten, laat staan een zinnige aanbeveling te formuleren. Beter zou zijn om deze methodes te gaan ordenen volgens het therapeutisch doel dat ze nastreven.
Er worden landelijk veel verschillende niet-farmacologische middelen aangeboden op het gebied van PSA bij kinderen. Dit betreft psychologische en fysieke technieken of een combinatie daarvan. Onduidelijk is welke dit zijn en of het effect hiervan werkelijk een positieve uitkomst heeft voor de kinderen en hun omgeving. En welk uitvoeringsplan het beste past bij het toepassen van de techniek. Wanneer en op welk moment niet-farmacologische middelen wel of niet worden aangeboden is ook verschillend.
De niet-farmacologische technieken zijn volop in ontwikkeling en er worden veel nieuwe initiatieven genomen op dit gebied. Op dit moment is echter te weinig duidelijk welke niet-farmacologische technieken bewezen en van meerwaarde zijn bij de PSA van kinderen. Er is hier geen duidelijke landelijke richtlijn over.

Samenvatting literatuur
Sub question 1
Preparation/information, distraction (e.g. guided imagery, breathing exercises, videos, video games, virtual reality), hypnosis, focused language, and relaxation techniques are psychological interventions used to assist in reducing pain, anxiety, distress, and increasing patient satisfaction during and around a potentially painful procedure. From a systematic literature search, four systematic reviews were selected based on full-text (Lambert 2020, Riddell 2015, Birnie 2018, Manyande 2015). These reviews included studies with participants aged 0 to 19 years.
Lambert et al (2020) performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to estimate the effect of virtual reality (VR) distraction on pain, compared with no distraction or non-VR distraction during various painful procedures in children and adolescents aged 4 to 18 years. This review included seventeen randomised controlled trials (RCTs). This study reported self-reported pain, and child satisfaction with the VR intervention as outcomes. In general, no or small beneficial effects of VR interventions were found, and in some participants, nausea and motion sickness due to the intervention were reported. The evidence reported in this study is of low to very low quality, mostly due to a high risk of bias for not blinding participants, caregivers and observers to the allocation of the intervention, and serious imprecision or indirectness. The results from this review are presented in Table 2.
Riddell et al (2015) performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of RCTs to estimate the effects of various forms of patient distraction during a vaccine injection compared to “control” conditions on patient distress. Studies in infants aged 0 to 3 years were included in this review. The evidence was of very low quality due to no blinding with regard to the intervention, imprecision due to small samples, and indirectness. For one type of intervention (directed video), a beneficial effect was reported. No significant effects were reported for other interventions. The results from this review are summarised in Table 2.
Birnie et al (2018) performed a systematic review that included RCTs to estimate the effects of distraction, cognitive behavioral therapy and hypnosis on pain (self-reported and observer-reported) and distress during needle-related procedures in children and adolescents aged 2 to 19. Nine studies used cartoons or a movie as distraction method, eight used listening to music or a story, three used an interactive handheld computer or video games, three used distraction cards, two used virtual reality, two used playing with a toy, two used parent distraction, one used a medical clown, one used squeezing a ball, and five used a combination or selection of different distractors. In general, the study found beneficial effects of these interventions on pain and distress. The evidence was of very low or low quality, as studies had a high risk of bias due to lack of blinding and concealment of allocation, were inconsistent and imprecise. The results from this review are summarized in Table 2.
Manyande et al (2015) performed a systematic review of RCTs to estimate the effect of (video, video game, or two or one parent) distraction on anxiety and co-operation during induction of anesthesia in children and adolescents aged 0 to 18. The review found a beneficial effect of all forms of distraction on anxiety and co-operation during the procedure, compared to no video distraction, or presence of one or no parents. The evidence was of very low quality because of high risk of bias (selection bias and lack of blinding), and imprecision. The results from this review are summarized in Table 2.
Of note is the finding that parental presence in subgroup of anxious parents had a negative effect on child anxiety, while presence of calm parents had no effect.
Table 2 is presented in the tables section.
Conclusions
The review of Lambert et al (2020) concluded that due to the very low quality of the included studies, it was difficult to assess the real advantages and disadvantages of virtual reality distraction methods to reduce pain in children in various healthcare situations. Moreover, because of the large variety in study methods and reported outcome measures, it was not possible to pool the results on many outcomes.
The review of Riddell et al (2015) concluded that studies that investigated the effects of directed video, and directed and nondirected toy distraction were of low to very low quality. Therefore no definitive conclusions could be formulated on the benefits and disadvantages of these interventions on distress in children.
The review of Birnie et al (2018) concluded that although the quality of the evidence was low to very low, moderate to large effects ranging from SMD -0.56 (95% CI: -0.78 to -0.33) for the effect of distraction on self-reported pain to SMD -0.82 (95% CI: -1.45 to 0.18) for the effect of distraction on self-reported distress were found in favour of distraction.
The review of Manyande et al (2015) concluded that there is no evidence that the presence of one or more parents during the induction of anaesthesia is beneficial to decrease anxiety of the child.
Level of evidence of the literature
The level of evidence regarding the outcome measure pain was downgraded by three levels because of study limitations (risk of bias: intervention not blinded); conflicting results (inconsistency); indirectness; imprecision (broad confidence intervals), and publication bias.
The level of evidence regarding the outcome measure anxiety was downgraded by three levels because of study limitations (risk of bias: intervention not blinded); conflicting results (inconsistency); indirectness; imprecision (broad confidence intervals), and publication bias.
The level of evidence regarding the outcome measure procedural success was downgraded by three levels because of study limitations (risk of bias: intervention not blinded); conflicting results (inconsistency); indirectness; imprecision (low number of included patients), and publication bias.
Sub question 2
Different physical interventions are used to achieve procedural analgesia, e.g. cooling, vibration, or holding an infant in a certain position. From a systematic literature search, two studies were included: one systematic review (Ueki 2019), and one randomised controlled trial (Morrow, 2010). Both investigated the effects of physical interventions on pain, and Ueki also investigated the outcomes anxiety and success rate of the first venipuncture. Morrow et al included neonates, while Ueki et al included studies that included infants and children aged 15 days to 18 years.
Ueki et al. (2019) performed a systematic review to analyze the effect of vibratory stimulation as a pain reducing measurement for needle-related procedures (NRP) on pediatric patients. They searched MEDLINE, CINAHL, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and Igaku Chuo Zasshi for published trials and searched Clinical-Trials.gov, EU Clinical Trials Register, UMIN Clinical Trials Registry and OpenGrey for unpublished studies. Included were studies that included pediatric participants up to 18 years old with any condition who were undergoing an NRP. NPR’s existed of puncture, injection, and IV catheter insertion. They did not have any exclusion criteria. They included 21 RCT studies for a total of 1717 patients of which 8 studies were cross-over studies. It should be noted that on several occasions, results presented in this review were incorrectly adopted from the underlying clinical trials. Therefore in this summary, the meta-analyses were repeated using results that were retrieved from the original studies as much as possible.
Morrow et al. (2010) executed a RCT study to examine the pain-reducing effect of swaddling and holding the newborn pediatric patient in an upright position during heel-lance procedures compared to the standard care position. They included neonates in a tertiary hospital who would undergo a standard total serum bilirubin (TSB) procedure. Excluded from the study were neonates admitted to the NICU, diagnosed with hyperbilirubinemia and other medical complications, and infants delivered by diabetic mothers. They included 42 patients in total; 22 in the intervention group and 20 in the control group. Group assignment was randomized on the basis of the last digit of the infants patient number.
Results
Ueki et al. (2019) performed a meta-analysis to determine the effect of vibratory stimulation on self-rated pain score (SRPS), observer-rated pain score (ORPS), observer-rated anxiety (ORA), and success rate of first venipuncture (SRFV). Pooled effects are shown below:
None of the trials was blinded, as it could be observed whether a device was used or not. A sub-analysis using a turned on device as intervention group and turned off device as control group gave the following results:

There is no significant evidence for a relevant effect of vibratory stimulation as a pain-reducing intervention.
Morrow et al. (2010) found that swaddling a neonate and holding them in an upright position during a heel-lance procedure gave a mean Neonatal Inventory Pain Scale (NIPS) score of 1.3 (SD 0.9), while the control group had a mean score of 2.7 (SD 1.3). The performed t-test (-4.48) showed this difference was statistically significant (P<0.001). While the study’s results are in favor of this intervention, the duality of the intervention as well as the small sample size reduces their claim of clinical significance. It should be noted that due to the position the infant is held in during the intervention in the intervention position, arm movement could be obscured from observation. Arm movement is part of the NIPS score, the results are likely biased in the direction of a beneficial effect of the intervention.
Level of evidence of the literature
The level of evidence regarding the outcome measure self-reported pain was downgraded by three levels because of study limitations (risk of bias: intervention not blinded); conflicting results (inconsistency), imprecision (confidence interval crossed minimal clinically important difference), and publication bias.
The level of evidence regarding the outcome measure observed pain was downgraded by three levels because of study limitations (risk of bias: intervention not blinded); conflicting results (inconsistency); indirectness; imprecision (confidence interval crossed minimal clinically important difference), and publication bias.
The level of evidence regarding the outcome measure observed anxiety was downgraded by three levels because of study limitations (risk of bias: intervention not blinded); conflicting results (inconsistency); indirectness; imprecision (low number of included patients), and publication bias.
The level of evidence regarding the outcome measure procedural success was downgraded by three levels because of study limitations (risk of bias: intervention not blinded); conflicting results (inconsistency); indirectness; imprecision (confidence interval crossed null), and publication bias.

Type of study:
RCT
Setting and country: Tertiary hospital in the USA.
Funding and conflicts of interest:
Authors declare no conflicts of interest |
Inclusion criteria: Newborn infants born after at least 37 weeks of pregnancy, who were clinically stable and qualified for a total serum bilirubin (TSB) procedure. Exclusion criteria: “Infants who were admitted to the NICU, neonates born to diabetic mothers, those previously diagnosed with hyperbilirubinemia, as well as infants with other medical complications.”
N total at baseline: Intervention: 22 Control: 20
Important prognostic factors2: Gestational age ± SD: I: 39.45 (1.14) C: 38.77 (1.51)
Sex: I: 50% M C: 41.1% M
Weight: I: 3371.77 (417.96) C: 3546.88 (340.85)
Apgar at 1 min: I: 8.45 (0.65) C: 8.66 (0.47)
Vaginal birth: I: 77.2% C: 76.4%
Groups comparable at baseline? Yes |
Describe intervention (treatment/procedure/test):
Infants were swaddled and held upright during the procedure (90 degrees).
|
Describe control (treatment/procedure/test):
Infants received standard care (30 degrees). |
Length of follow-up:
Experimental: 2 minutes 17 seconds (SD = 59)
Control: 2 minutes 47 seconds (SD = 85) Loss-to-follow-up:
N.A.
Incomplete outcome data:

|
Outcome measures and effect size (include 95%CI and p-value if available):
Pain (Neonatal Inventory Pain Scale).
Mean (SD) I: 1.3 (0.9) C: 2.7 (1.3)
t-test = -4.48 p<0.001 |
Conclusion from the author:
The RCT showed that swaddling the infant while holding it in an upright position significantly decreases the painscore compared to holing the infant in a standard care position during heel lance procedures. |
Notes:
-
Prognostic balance between treatment groups is usually guaranteed in randomized studies, but non-randomized (observational) studies require matching of patients between treatment groups (case-control studies) or multivariate adjustment for prognostic factors (confounders) (cohort studies); the evidence table should contain sufficient details on these procedures
-
Provide data per treatment group on the most important prognostic factors ((potential) confounders)
-
For case-control studies, provide sufficient detail on the procedure used to match cases and controls
-
For cohort studies, provide sufficient detail on the (multivariate) analyses used to adjust for (potential) confounders

Facultative:
The funnel plot and Egger’s test showed a possible publication bias for the self-rated pain studies. Excluding studies funded by the industry did not change the direction of results.
Participation bias is possible, as all but three studies excluded critical or chronically sick children.
High level of heterogeneity, possibly due to the differences between usual care as comparison.
Level of evidence: GRADE
Pain, as measured by self-rated outcome measurement, from NRP, is reduced by 0.36 SMD (GRADE level LOW)
Pain, as measured by observer-rated outcome measurement, from NRP, is reduced by 0.34 SMD (GRADE level LOW)
Anxiety, measured by observers using scales, from NRP is reduced by 0.74 SMD (GRADE level LOW)
Sensitivity analyses (excluding small studies; excluding studies with short follow-up; excluding low quality studies; relevant subgroup-analyses);
When topical anesthesia was used during the intervention as well as during the control, no vibratory stimulation was deemed statistically significant in reducing pain score.
A sub-analysis differentiating between controlgroups with no device and controlgroups with the device turned off, showed that vibrations did not significantly reduce pain score:
Self-rated painscore Device vs. No device Pooled effect (random effects model): -0.94 (95% CI -1.54 to -0.35) favoring intervention Heterogeneity (I2): 90% P-value = 0.002
Device vs. Device turned off Pooled effect (random effects model): -0.07 (95% CI -0.43 to 0.28) favoring intervention Heterogeneity (I2): 81% P-value = 0.68
Observer-rated painscore Device vs. No device Pooled effect (random effects model): -0.72 (95% CI -1.31 to -0.14) favoring intervention Heterogeneity (I2): 91% P-value = 0.02
Device vs. Device turned off Pooled effect (random effects model): -0.16 (95% CI -0.40 to 0.07) favoring intervention Heterogeneity (I2): 59% P-value = 0.17
Heterogeneity: clinical and statistical heterogeneity; The difference in usual care as control group might have contributed to the high heterogeneity. Only topical anaesthesia could be stratified, as there was not enough data on the rest. |

Ik ben van 2020-2025 als onderzoekspartner betrokken bij een Europees onderzoeksconsortium dat onderzoek doet naar een nieuwe Virtual reality tool voor procedurele pijnreductie bij kinderen. Het betreft een onderzoek dat gefinancierd wordt met een grant afkomstig van de EITHealth (European Institute of Innovation and Technology). De totale grootte van die grant bedraagt ongeveer 1,5 miljoen euro, waarvan ongeveer 350000 euro naar mijn eigen onderzoeksgroep gaat. Binnen Nederland en Europa word ik in het algemeen beschouwd als een van de experten op het vlak van PSA bij kinderen. Ook voor patiëntenorganisaties ben ik een boegbeeld geworden wanneer het gaat om pijn- en angstreductie bij kinderen ihkv medische verrichtingen. Dit komt ook omdat ik duidelijke standpunten inneem en daarover ook regelmatig communiceer, ook via social media. Ik meen dat mijn standpunten steeds gebaseerd zijn op een zorgvuldige lezing van de evidence en dat ze in lijn zijn met alle recent gepubliceerde richtlijnen op het vlak van PSA |

Inbreng patiëntenperspectief
Er werd aandacht besteed aan het patiëntperspectief door afgevaardigde patiëntenvereniging Stichting Kind & Ziekenhuis in de klankbordgroep. Het verslag hiervan (zie aanverwante producten) is besproken in de werkgroep. De verkregen input is meegenomen bij het opstellen van de uitgangsvragen, de keuze voor de uitkomstmaten en bij het opstellen van de overwegingen. De conceptrichtlijn is tevens voor commentaar voorgelegd aan Stichting Kind en Ziekenhuis en de eventueel aangeleverde commentaren zijn bekeken en verwerkt.
Wkkgz & Kwalitatieve raming van mogelijke substantiële financiële gevolgen
Kwalitatieve raming van mogelijke financiële gevolgen in het kader van de Wkkgz
Bij de richtlijn is conform de Wet kwaliteit, klachten en geschillen zorg (Wkkgz) een kwalitatieve raming uitgevoerd of de aanbevelingen mogelijk leiden tot substantiële financiële gevolgen. Bij het uitvoeren van deze beoordeling zijn richtlijnmodules op verschillende domeinen getoetst (zie het https://richtlijnendatabase.nl/over_deze_site/richtlijnontwikkeling/wkkgz.html
Uit de kwalitatieve raming blijkt dat er waarschijnlijk geen substantiële financiële gevolgen zijn conform het stroomschema, zie onderstaande tabel. In opdracht van de NVZ en de NVA is overigens in 2014 een onderzoek uitgevoerd door SEO Economisch Onderzoek om een schatting te maken van de effecten op kosten van de invoering van de vorige richtlijn procedurele sedatie en analgesie buiten de OK. Hieruit bleek dat de impact op kosten en de baten afhankelijk is van de procedure en de mate van centralisatie van deze procedures.

Geen financiële gevolgen |
Hoewel uit de toetsing volgt dat de aanbeveling(en) breed toepasbaar zijn (>40.000 patiënten), volgt ook uit de toetsing dat het overgrote deel (±90%) van de zorgaanbieders en zorgverleners al aan de norm voldoet en het geen nieuwe manier van zorgverlening of andere organisatie van zorgverlening betreft, het geen toename in het aantal in te zetten voltijdsequivalenten aan zorgverleners betreft en het geen wijziging in het opleidingsniveau van zorgpersoneel betreft. |
Werkwijze
AGREE
Deze richtlijnmodule is opgesteld conform de eisen vermeld in het rapport Medisch Specialistische Richtlijnen 2.0 van de adviescommissie Richtlijnen van de Raad Kwaliteit. Dit rapport is gebaseerd op het AGREE II instrument (Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation II; Brouwers, 2010).
Knelpuntenanalyse en uitgangsvragen
Tijdens de voorbereidende fase inventariseerde de werkgroep de knelpunten in de zorg voor patiënten die procedurele sedatie en/of analgesie ondergaan. Tevens zijn er knelpunten aangedragen door de Nederlandse Vereniging voor Anesthesiologie, de Nederlandse Vereniging voor Kindergeneeskunde, de Koninklijke Nederlandse Maatschappij tot bevordering der Tandheelkunde, de Nederlandse Vereniging van Anesthesiemedewerkers, de Vakgroep Medisch Pedagogische Zorg Nederland, de Nederlandse Vereniging van Spoedeisende Hulp Artsen, de Nederlandse Vereniging voor Heelkunde, de Nederlandse Vereniging voor Radiologie, Verpleegkundigen en Verzorgenden Nederland, Stichting Kind en Ziekenhuis, en de Inspectie Gezondheidszorg en Jeugd.
De werkgroep beoordeelde de aanbeveling(en) uit de eerdere richtlijn (Nederlandse Vereniging voor Anesthesiologie, 2012) op noodzaak tot revisie. Tevens zijn er via een enquête knelpunten aangedragen door stakeholders. Een verslag hiervan is opgenomen onder aanverwante producten.
Op basis van de uitkomsten van de knelpuntenanalyse zijn door de werkgroep concept-uitgangsvragen opgesteld en definitief vastgesteld.
Uitkomstmaten
Na het opstellen van de zoekvraag behorende bij de uitgangsvraag inventariseerde de werkgroep welke uitkomstmaten voor de patiënt relevant zijn, waarbij zowel naar gewenste als ongewenste effecten werd gekeken. Hierbij werd een maximum van acht uitkomstmaten gehanteerd. De werkgroep waardeerde deze uitkomstmaten volgens hun relatieve belang bij de besluitvorming rondom aanbevelingen, als cruciaal (kritiek voor de besluitvorming), belangrijk (maar niet cruciaal) en onbelangrijk. Tevens definieerde de werkgroep tenminste voor de cruciale uitkomstmaten welke verschillen zij klinisch (patiënt) relevant vonden.
Methode literatuursamenvatting
Een uitgebreide beschrijving van de strategie voor zoeken en selecteren van literatuur is te vinden onder ‘Zoeken en selecteren’ onder Onderbouwing. Indien mogelijk werd de data uit verschillende studies gepoold in een random-effects model. Review Manager 5.4 werd gebruikt voor de statistische analyses. De beoordeling van de kracht van het wetenschappelijke bewijs wordt hieronder toegelicht.
Beoordelen van de kracht van het wetenschappelijke bewijs
De kracht van het wetenschappelijke bewijs werd bepaald volgens de GRADE-methode. GRADE staat voor ‘Grading Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation’ (zie http://www.gradeworkinggroup.org/). De basisprincipes van de GRADE-methodiek zijn: het benoemen en prioriteren van de klinisch (patiënt) relevante uitkomstmaten, een systematische review per uitkomstmaat, en een beoordeling van de bewijskracht per uitkomstmaat op basis van de acht GRADE-domeinen (domeinen voor downgraden: risk of bias, inconsistentie, indirectheid, imprecisie, en publicatiebias; domeinen voor upgraden: dosis-effect relatie, groot effect, en residuele plausibele confounding).
GRADE onderscheidt vier gradaties voor de kwaliteit van het wetenschappelijk bewijs: hoog, redelijk, laag en zeer laag. Deze gradaties verwijzen naar de mate van zekerheid die er bestaat over de literatuurconclusie, in het bijzonder de mate van zekerheid dat de literatuurconclusie de aanbeveling adequaat ondersteunt (Schünemann, 2013; Hultcrantz, 2017).

|
Bij het beoordelen (graderen) van de kracht van het wetenschappelijk bewijs in richtlijnen volgens de GRADE-methodiek spelen grenzen voor klinische besluitvorming een belangrijke rol (Hultcrantz, 2017). Dit zijn de grenzen die bij overschrijding aanleiding zouden geven tot een aanpassing van de aanbeveling. Om de grenzen voor klinische besluitvorming te bepalen moeten alle relevante uitkomstmaten en overwegingen worden meegewogen. De grenzen voor klinische besluitvorming zijn daarmee niet één op één vergelijkbaar met het minimaal klinisch relevant verschil (Minimal Clinically Important Difference, MCID). Met name in situaties waarin een interventie geen belangrijke nadelen heeft en de kosten relatief laag zijn, kan de grens voor klinische besluitvorming met betrekking tot de effectiviteit van de interventie bij een lagere waarde (dichter bij het nuleffect) liggen dan de MCID (Hultcrantz, 2017).
Overwegingen (van bewijs naar aanbeveling)
Om te komen tot een aanbeveling zijn naast (de kwaliteit van) het wetenschappelijke bewijs ook andere aspecten belangrijk en worden meegewogen, zoals aanvullende argumenten uit bijvoorbeeld de biomechanica of fysiologie, waarden en voorkeuren van patiënten, kosten (middelenbeslag), aanvaardbaarheid, haalbaarheid en implementatie. Deze aspecten zijn systematisch vermeld en beoordeeld (gewogen) onder het kopje ‘Overwegingen’ en kunnen (mede) gebaseerd zijn op expert opinion. Hierbij is gebruik gemaakt van een gestructureerd format gebaseerd op het evidence-to-decision framework van de internationale GRADE Working Group (Alonso-Coello, 2016a; Alonso-Coello 2016b). Dit evidence-to-decision framework is een integraal onderdeel van de GRADE methodiek.
Formuleren van aanbevelingen
De aanbevelingen geven antwoord op de uitgangsvraag en zijn gebaseerd op het beschikbare wetenschappelijke bewijs en de belangrijkste overwegingen, en een weging van de gunstige en ongunstige effecten van de relevante interventies. De kracht van het wetenschappelijk bewijs en het gewicht dat door de werkgroep wordt toegekend aan de overwegingen, bepalen samen de sterkte van de aanbeveling. Conform de GRADE-methodiek sluit een lage bewijskracht van conclusies in de systematische literatuuranalyse een sterke aanbeveling niet a priori uit, en zijn bij een hoge bewijskracht ook zwakke aanbevelingen mogelijk (Agoritsas, 2017; Neumann, 2016). De sterkte van de aanbeveling wordt altijd bepaald door weging van alle relevante argumenten tezamen. De werkgroep heeft bij elke aanbeveling opgenomen hoe zij tot de richting en sterkte van de aanbeveling zijn gekomen.
In de GRADE-methodiek wordt onderscheid gemaakt tussen sterke en zwakke (of conditionele) aanbevelingen. De sterkte van een aanbeveling verwijst naar de mate van zekerheid dat de voordelen van de interventie opwegen tegen de nadelen (of vice versa), gezien over het hele spectrum van patiënten waarvoor de aanbeveling is bedoeld. De sterkte van een aanbeveling heeft duidelijke implicaties voor patiënten, behandelaars en beleidsmakers (zie onderstaande tabel). Een aanbeveling is geen dictaat, zelfs een sterke aanbeveling gebaseerd op bewijs van hoge kwaliteit (GRADE gradering HOOG) zal niet altijd van toepassing zijn, onder alle mogelijke omstandigheden en voor elke individuele patiënt.
Implicaties van sterke en zwakke aanbevelingen voor verschillende richtlijngebruikers |
||
|
||
|
Sterke aanbeveling |
Zwakke (conditionele) aanbeveling |
Voor patiënten |
De meeste patiënten zouden de aanbevolen interventie of aanpak kiezen en slechts een klein aantal niet. |
Een aanzienlijk deel van de patiënten zouden de aanbevolen interventie of aanpak kiezen, maar veel patiënten ook niet. |
Voor behandelaars |
De meeste patiënten zouden de aanbevolen interventie of aanpak moeten ontvangen. |
Er zijn meerdere geschikte interventies of aanpakken. De patiënt moet worden ondersteund bij de keuze voor de interventie of aanpak die het beste aansluit bij zijn of haar waarden en voorkeuren. |
Voor beleidsmakers |
De aanbevolen interventie of aanpak kan worden gezien als standaardbeleid. |
Beleidsbepaling vereist uitvoerige discussie met betrokkenheid van veel stakeholders. Er is een grotere kans op lokale beleidsverschillen. |
Organisatie van zorg
In de knelpuntenanalyse en bij de ontwikkeling van de richtlijnmodule is expliciet aandacht geweest voor de organisatie van zorg: alle aspecten die randvoorwaardelijk zijn voor het verlenen van zorg (zoals coördinatie, communicatie, (financiële) middelen, mankracht en infrastructuur). Randvoorwaarden die relevant zijn voor het beantwoorden van deze specifieke uitgangsvraag zijn genoemd bij de overwegingen. Meer algemene, overkoepelende, of bijkomende aspecten van de organisatie van zorg worden behandeld in de module Organisatie van zorg.
Commentaar- en autorisatiefase
De conceptrichtlijnmodule werd aan de betrokken (wetenschappelijke) verenigingen en (patiënt) organisaties voorgelegd ter commentaar. De commentaren werden verzameld en besproken met de werkgroep. Naar aanleiding van de commentaren werd de conceptrichtlijnmodule aangepast en definitief vastgesteld door de werkgroep. De definitieve richtlijnmodule werd aan de deelnemende (wetenschappelijke) verenigingen en (patiënt) organisaties voorgelegd voor autorisatie en door hen geautoriseerd dan wel geaccordeerd.
