DescriptionPurpose of Project: The purpose of this project was to increase the use of video-based distraction by pediatric anesthesia providers. Methodology: Observational data, specifically event sampling, was utilized to obtain a baseline usage rate for video distraction prior to induction by a private, contracted anesthesia group in the operating room. Flyers promoting the use of video distraction that contained a QR code to popular children’s YouTube videos, as well as information regarding the benefits of video-based distraction, were distributed throughout the perioperative area for a total of two months. Post interventional observational data was obtained in the same manner, to determine the change, if any, the flyers had on usage of video distraction prior to induction of anesthesia. Results: Two months after disbursement of the flyer, the usage rate of video-distraction (prior to induction of general anesthesia) increased from a baseline of 40% to approximately 77%. Implications for Practice: These findings suggest that these perioperative reminders may be helpful in promoting the use of video-distraction methods. Future recommendations are geared towards routine device use, designated tablets for the pediatric operating room, and convenient links to popular children’s YouTube videos providing children with options to pick the video of their choice.
