简要总结
This study was needed to relieve the pain associated with subcutaneous injection, which is an application performed by nurses, to increase patient satisfaction, to increase patient compliance with treatment, and to strengthen positive patient-nurse communication.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of vibration stimulation application on subcutan injection induced pain and patient satisfaction. The study will be carried out in the internal medicine service of a university hospital. Vibration will be applied during subcutaneous injection of anticoagulant to one group, but not to the other group. It was planned to include 85 patients in the study.
详细描述
This study was needed to relieve the pain associated with subcutaneous injection, which is an application performed by nurses, to increase patient satisfaction, to increase patient compliance with treatment, and to strengthen positive patient-nurse communication.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of vibration stimulation application on subcutan injection induced pain and patient satisfaction.
The study will be conducted between September 2022 and January 2023 in the internal medicine ward of a university hospital in Istanbul/Turkey in a prospective, randomized, single-blind, crossover design.Two groups will be formed according to the crossover order. Volunteers will be informed about the study and their written consent will be obtained. Patient evaluation form, visual pain form and satisfaction scale will be applied to all patients before injection. The height, weight and body mass index of the patients will be measured by the specialist nurse. An anticoagulant will be administered subcutaneously over the abdominal region. The areas to be injected will be determined in the same way for each patient. Low molecular weight heparin will be administered subcutaneously to the umbilical region with and without vibration, with an interval of 24 hours. All patients will be injected with the same investigative nurse, following the standard procedure. 5 minutes after the application, the pain and satisfaction level of all patients will be evaluated using scales. Vibration application will be applied by the researchers for 5 minutes before the injection application.

结局指标
主要结局
Patient Information Form
时间窗: day 1
It includes some socio-demographic characteristics of the individual (age, gender, place of residence, marital status, educational status, employment status).
Visual Patient Satisfaction Scale
时间窗: day 2
The visual patient satisfaction scale combines with the features of the well-known VAS (Visual Analogue Scale). It consists of a 100 mm horizontal line without numbers. At one end of the line is the phrase "I am not satisfied at all" and at the other end is the statement "Very satisfied". The patient must synthesize all the components that affect him in relation to the medical care given, determine the state of satisfaction he is in and find the point on the line that corresponds to his situation.
Visual Analog Scale
时间窗: day 2
Scale, 10 cm long, horizontal or vertical; It consists of a line starting with "No Pain" and ending with "Unbearable Pain". The use of VAS should be explained to the patient very well. The patient is asked to indicate the severity of the pain with a sign on this line where he deems appropriate. The distance between the onset of no pain and this point is measured in cm and recorded. Values range from 0 to 10, and patients' pain levels are evaluated over 10 points as 0 = no pain, 10 = unbearable pain.
