Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study Clinical TrialChildren's responses to sequential versus simultaneous immunization injections.
The purpose of this study was to compare distress behaviors and perceptions of distress in 4- to 6-year-old children who received two immunization injections simultaneously with those in children who received their immunizations sequentially. ⋯ The simultaneous procedure was not found to be associated with reduced distress behaviors; however, parents preferred the simultaneous method.
