Despite the important role of parents during wound care, an essential factor in adapting to this disease, studies focusing on the parent\u2013child relationship during wound care are scarce. The current study is aimed at addressing this gap.\n<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>A quantitative study among 31 children (n\u2009=\u200921\u2009\u2264\u200917\u00a0years; n\u2009=\u200910 17\u201325\u00a0years) and 34 parents (including 27 parent\u2013child dyads) was conducted to examine the relationship between pain, itch, anxiety, positive and negative feelings, and coping strategies assessed with the newly developed Epidermolysis Bullosa Wound Care List. The majority of the analyses were descriptive and the results were interpreted qualitatively because of the small sample size.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Children and parents both showed significantly more positive (i.e. \u2018protected\u2019, \u2018proud\u2019, \u2018calm\u2019, \u2018connected to each other\u2019 and \u2018courageous\u2019) than negative feelings (i.e. \u2018helpless\u2019, \u2018angry\u2019, \u2018insecure\u2019, \u2018guilty\u2019, \u2018gloomy\u2019 and \u2018sad\u2019) during wound care, with parents reporting both feelings more than children. The more children experienced pain, the more they were anxious, had negative feelings, were inclined to use distraction, to postpone wound care and to cry. The more parents experienced feelings (either positive or negative), the more likely they sought distraction. With regard to child-parent dyads the results showed that the more children expressed anxiety, the more parents experienced negative feelings. Furthermore, those who reported more negative feelings were more likely to hide their feelings, while those who reported more positive feelings were more inclined to show their feelings. Pain, itch and anxiety in the child were associated with more distraction or postponement of wound care by the parent.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>This study underlines the importance of paying attention to the relationship between feelings and coping strategies in child-parent dyads in the management of pain and anxiety during wound care. Further research could provide more insight how these feelings and coping strategies are related to the psychological well-being of both the child and the parent in the short term as well as in the long term.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s13023-022-02462-y","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,13]],"date-time":"2022-08-13T07:15:54Z","timestamp":1660374954000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Patients\u2019 and parents\u2019 experiences during wound care of epidermolysis bullosa from a dyadic perspective: a survey study"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2752-3616","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Petra J.","family":"Mauritz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marieke","family":"Bolling","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jos\u00e9 C.","family":"Duipmans","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mari\u00ebt","family":"Hagedoorn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,13]]},"reference":[{"issue":"6","key":"2462_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"607","DOI":"10.2340\/00015555-0947","volume":"90","author":"S Tabolli","year":"2010","unstructured":"Tabolli S, Pagliarello C, Uras C, Di Pietro C, Zambruno G, Castiglia D, et al.
