Nurse Invention is a Game Changer for Kids Who Need Surgery
Nurse practitioner Abby Hess DPN, APRN, made the cover of USA Today with her novel breathing-controlled video game called EZ Induction. This product reduces anxiety in young children during the anesthesia process. The game uses cartoon animals that children can control by breathing into an anesthesia mask, turning a stressful experience into a calming one. Licensed by LittleSeed Calming Technologies, the app will be available to healthcare facilities nationwide, with Cincinnati Children’s as the first to pilot it.
