Effects of White Noise Combined with Sensory Stimulation Nursing on Compliance and Stress Response in Young Children Undergoing Rigid Nasopharyngoscopy.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveThis study aimed to evaluate the effects of white noise combined with sensory stimulation nursing on compliance and stress response in young children undergoing rigid nasopharyngoscopy examination.
methodsA retrospective cohort study was conducted on 400 children aged 2-6 years who underwent rigid nasopharyngoscopy at our hospital between June 2023 and June 2024. The patients were stratified into a white noise and sensory stimulation nursing group (n = 200) or standard nursing group (n = 200) in accordance with the nursing care protocol implemented during their examination period. Outcome measures included procedural restraint assessed by the procedural restraint intensity in children (PRIC) scale, salivary cortisol levels, heart rate variability parameters and behavioural distress assessed by the Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC) scale. Parental satisfaction was evaluated using the Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire (PSQ-18).
resultsBaseline characteristics demonstrated intergroup equivalence (P > 0.05). Compared with the standard nursing group, the white noise and sensory stimulation nursing group showed significantly better compliance with lower PRIC scores (P < 0.001), reduced salivary cortisol levels (P < 0.001), improved heart rate variability parameters (P < 0.001), significantly lower behavioural distress scores on the FLACC scale (P < 0.001), shorter examination time (P < 0.001) and higher PSQ-18 satisfaction scores (P < 0.001).
conclusionOur retrospective analysis suggests that white noise combined with sensory stimulation nursing may be associated with reduced procedural restraint and stress response in young children undergoing rigid nasopharyngoscopy, representing a potential non-pharmacological approach for paediatric procedural anxiety management.
