Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Intravenous catheter placement is one of the most common invasive procedures, which performs by nurses. The presence of pain during vein puncturing may cause a series of mental, psychological and corporal adverse effects on children. Therefore, prevention and relieving of this discomfort in children is so important. The main purpose of this study is to compare the effects of EMLA cream and acupressure on pain reduction of venipuncture in 6-12 years old children who were hospitalized in educational centers of Rafsanjan University of Medical Sciences.
Methods: The present study is a clinical trial which is carried out with patricianly of 120 children in educational medical centers of Rafsanjan University of Medical Sciences during 2014.The samples were randomly categorized into three groups of EMLA cream, acupressure and control groups. In EMLA group, the EMLA cream was applied prior to venipuncture, in acupressure group also acupressure intervention was performed by nurses and the control group received only routine care. The pain intensity of venipuncture in all groups were measured after venipuncture using a pain analog scale. The data were introduced to SPSS software, version 18, and analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistics (Kruskal-Wallis, and the Mann-Whitney tests).
Result: according to the results, differences of pain intensity during venipuncture, among the groups were statistically significant, (P<0/0001).The mean and standard deviation of pain intensity, in EMLA cream group, acupressure group and control were (3/45 ± 1/69),(3/35 ± 1/8) and (8/65 ± 1/8) respectively. The severity of pain in two groups of EMLA cream and acupressure comparing to control group were decreased significantly (P<0.0001). However, the pain intensity between the groups of acupressure and EMLA cream were not statistically significant (P =0/99).
Conclusion: according to the finding, the non-drug methods of pain relief in terms of cost and availability is preferred to medical treatment methods and Acupressure can be used as an alternative method for pain Reduction.

Abstract
Introduction: The death of an important person in every person's life is the hardest event that can experience. In the meantime, the bereaved children of a vulnerable population are at risk of social and psychological harm.
The aim of this study was to investigate how children understand the concept of death and its components in cognitive-evolutionary periods based on Piaget's theory and Nagy' theory.
Method: This is a review study using a qualitative Content research method, the concepts of death in the Piaget and Nagy evolutionary theories are investigated and, with regard to open, axial, and selective coding, are partially conceptualized according to age and developmental stages and psychological features have been extracted.
Results: According to the studies, Nagy and Piaget's theories on the concept of death have had a great deal of commonality and complementarity.
Finally, from the implementation of these two theories, four axes or selected codes of the components of death are extracted: stability, generality, non-functionality and causation. The components of stability and causality are fully understood at the age of 7-11 and the rest of the components at the age of 11-16.
Conclusion: The results of this research can be useful in improving the study of the evolution of the concept of death in children and the profound understanding of existing theories around this concept. Also, using the results can help raise the awareness of parents, educators, counselors and pediatricians in the treatment of subsequent symptoms of mourning.

Abstract
Introduction: Physical activity and having a decent level of physical fitness for all ages are recommended. However, it is not clear which exercise program has more favorable effects during childhood. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a rope and elastic training course on physical fitness in elementary school student’s girls.
Method: In this semi-experimental study, 30 girl’s students were selected from elementary school In norabad city and randomly divided into three include rope training (n=10), Elastic training (n=10) and control groups (n=10). The rope and elastic training were performed 30 minutes, 3 days a week for 8 weeks. The control group only had their daily activities during this period. Before the beginning of the study and the end of the study, factors related to physical fitness and fitness were measured. For analysis of the research findings, analysis of variance, t-test and tukey post hoc test were used at the significant level P<0.05.
Results: The results showed that eight weeks of rope and elastic training significantly improved open-static balance with open eyes, static balance with closed eyes, power, agility, speed, cardiovascular endurance, and maximal limb strength in girl’s students (P=0.001). Also, there was no significant difference between the effect of rope training than the elastic group on physical fitness and motor fitness in girl’s students (p> 0.05).
Conclusion: It can be concluded that rope and elastic training can improve physical fitness and motor fitness, and there is no significant difference between the effects of two types of exercises.
