To construct a therapeutic play program for children undergoing preparation for kidney biopsy under local anesthesia and explore the feasibility of the program from stakeholders' perspectives.The program was constructed by a multidisciplinary team and the feasibility and acceptability of the program were explored by a descriptive qualitative study.Based on LazarusFolkman's stress-coping model and Piaget's theory of play, and using on-site participatory field observation, a multidisciplinary team constructed a therapeutic play program for children undergoing kidney biopsy under local anesthesia. The feasibility and acceptability of the program were evaluated by interviewing children, their caregivers, and physicians.The main tools constructed for the intervention were a 15-page picture book titled Kidney Biopsy Treasure Hunt and a homemade kidney biopsy play package. The therapeutic play intervention for kidney biopsy under local anesthesia was led by nurses and followed the steps of kidney biopsy, using the picture book, and group play simulation. Through informed in-depth interviews with 10 children and their caregivers, we showed that the therapeutic play program materials were accessible, clinically feasible, and necessary for kidney biopsy under local anesthesia in children. The children and their caregivers had high acceptance of the content of the picture book, the format of the play, and high satisfaction with the overall program.The therapeutic play program we constructed for children undergoing kidney biopsy with local anesthesia was simple, feasible, and well accepted in the clinical setting.
