Summary

The study was planned to be conducted and completed within 6 months after ethics committee approval was obtained. The research is a prospective, quasi-experimental study.

The population of the study will consist of children hospitalized in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit of SBU, Izmir Dr. Behçet Uz Pediatric Diseases and Surgery Training and Research Hospital. Randomization of children will be done to determine which children's data will be followed on the relevant visit day.

Physiologic parameters including respiratory rate, pulse rate, oxygen saturation, body temperature, blood pressure and comfort levels of the children will be evaluated just before, during and after the parental visit (1st minute and 5th minute) and compared with those before the parental visit. All observations will be made by the same nurse to avoid bias in the study.
