| description | Abstract Background and Aim Venipuncture for blood collection elicits fear and pain in children. We investigated factors that affect satisfaction with health checkups that included blood collection in healthy 7–8‐year‐old children who underwent blood collection with topical anesthesia. Method Two studies, one questionnaire survey, and the other structured interviews were conducted to gather insights and understand the emotions of 492 and 20 children, respectively. Results We found that the following six points can be applied to encourage children to assess their experience of blood collection positively: (1) prior information using a pamphlet; (2) telling the children that the volume of blood drawn will be small; (3) carefully explaining the risk and benefit of topical anesthesia; (4) conducting the blood collection process swiftly; (5) praising and thanking the children's effort and cooperation; and (6) explaining the results of the research to the children if their blood is going to be used for research. Conclusion The findings indicate that with appropriate measures to reduce pain and fear, children's initial negative feelings toward blood collection can be replaced by positive feelings after the procedure. |
