Pediatric Radiation Oncology With Movie Induced Sedation Effect (PROMISE)

Pediatric Radiation Oncology With Movie Induced Sedation Effect (PROMISE): A Phase II Clinical Trial to Safely Reduce Anesthesia Use

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 2 Mar 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

PROMISE (Pediatric Radiation Oncology with Movie Induced Sedation Effect) is an interactive incentive-based movie system that integrates with a video surveillance gating module (VisionRT) as an alternative sedation solution for pediatric patients undergoing radiation treatment (RT). This single-arm, open label, single-center phase II clinical trial is to implement PROMISE for all children ages 3-11 who are planned to undergo RT at the institution. The primary goal is to decrease the total number of pediatric patients who require general anesthesia through the use of PROMISE, with secondary goals being to assess the impact that PROMISE has on patient/family anxiety and quality of life, treatment time and clinical efficiency, and overall cost. The investigators hypothesize that PROMISE will lead to a reduction in the percentage of patients ages 3-7 who require general anesthesia use from 70% (historical control) to 30%.
