An innovative device to distract and soothe hospitalized children

During medical treatment, anxiety and pain can be particularly difficult for a child to manage. To improve their care, the Caen Normandy University Hospital Foundation aims to equip all pediatric departments with hypno-analgesic and circadian ceiling panels .

These colorful ceiling tiles incorporate interactive games. During treatment, a caregiver or parent can interact with the child through these devices, helping to distract them from the medical procedure.

A real impact on the well-being of young patients

Stress and pain reduction : These slabs have a hypno-analgesic , helping to reduce the perception of pain.

A more calming environment : By making hospital rooms and treatment rooms more playful and interactive, these facilities meet the needs of children.

Circadian skylight panels are designed to follow biological rhythm by adapting the light according to day/night cycles. This modulated light has a positive impact on infants' sleep and mood, while creating a soothing and natural atmosphere.
