Description

The main aim of the review is to identify potentially effective distraction techniques for the 4 to 10 age range whilst reducing the need for sedation. Objectives also included assessment of the applicability of distraction for the 4–10 age range and, where appropriate, to identify potential cost implications and assess the interventions' impact on image quality.
