Participants were assigned to the DistrACTION Cards group (n=31), Buzzy group (n=30), or control group (n=31). Pain was assessed using the pulse rate, Faces Pain Rating Scale, and Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability scale.Results: Both distraction interventions significantly reduced observed pain (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability scores) compared to that in the control group. The DistrACTION Cards group showed significantly lower pain scores than the control group during the procedure (p&lt;.05) and demonstrated a consistent trend of pain reduction across all phases. Self-reported pain scores (Faces Pain Rating Scale) after the procedure were significantly lower in both intervention groups compared to those in the control group (p &lt;.05); however, no significant differences were found in the extent of change between groups. No significant group differences were observed in pulse rate.Conclusion: Both DistrACTION Cards and Buzzy effectively reduced intravenous infusion-related pain in preschool children. DistrACTION Cards showed greater consistency than Buzzy in pain reduction as measured by the Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability scale, suggesting they may be considered as a preferred option in clinical practice. Further research in diverse clinical settings is needed to confirm these findings.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4094\/chnr.2025.026","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,31]],"date-time":"2025-10-31T03:44:13Z","timestamp":1761882253000},"page":"284-295","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4094\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Comparative
