Official title
The Effectiveness of Animal Assisted Therapy for Children Hospitalized in a Pediatric Setting
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The primary purpose for this study is to determine if children who receive Occupational Therapy while they are an inpatient in the hospital will be more motivated to participate in therapy as well as increase the amount of time they will work during that particular session when a therapy dog is present during their sessions. The investigators will also be collecting data regarding a child's heart rate and blood pressure prior to the session starting and ending to determine if having a therapy dog present also helps relax a child.
