What this trial studies

This observational study aims to enhance the experience of children undergoing conventional X-ray examinations by mapping the procedure and assessing child-centered approaches. It will investigate how many images need to be retaken, the reasons for retakes, the time required for examinations, and the experiences of those involved. Additionally, the study will measure variations in heart rate to observe the physical impact of the procedure on children. Participants, including children and their parents, will complete questionnaires to provide insights into their experiences.
