The prospective, parallel-group and randomized controlled study was conducted in a university hospital between October 2019 and January 2021 with 57 children aged 8–18 years who were treated with chemotherapy and their mothers. In this study, a mobile application called “5inD” was developed, which includes five distraction methods to reduce CINV. Data were collected about CINV through the Adapted Rhodes Index for Nausea & Vomiting child version (ARINVc), and parent version (ARINVp).
