简要总结
Investigators observed that during the Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) non-pharmacological methods used for reducing the level of the pain and anxiety among the patients with the urinary stones are not sufficient and the effectiveness of these methods is controversial. There are very few studies, which investigated the effects of music on the pain and anxiety during ESWL. In addition, any randomized clinical trial related to the use of stress ball for relaxation and distraction on the reduction of pain and anxiety during lithotripsy has not been found in the relevant literature. Investigators also evaluated that further evidence-based studies are necessary. Thus, investigators aimed to investigate the effectiveness of stress ball and music for reducing the pain and anxiety of the patients during ESWL in this study.
详细描述
Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL), used commonly in urinary stone treatment, can cause pain and anxiety for patients. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of use of music and stress ball to reduce pain and anxiety during lithotripsy. This was a single center parallel-randomized controlled trial. The study sample consisted of a total of 120 patients who applied to lithotripsy unit of urology clinic in a training and research hospital in Turkey between April and September 2014. The patients were randomly divided into three groups. The patients in group-I (control group) were not interfered, while group-II was given stress ball into their palms in order to squeeze and group-III was listened to the music chosen by themselves with a headset during the lithotripsy procedure. Data were collected using the Patient Information Form, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-SA).

研究组 & 干预措施
Control group
The patients in "Group 1" didn't receive any intervention during ESWL.
Stress ball
The patients in "Group 2" were given stress ball into both their palms 5 minutes before ESWL. Participants were instructed to "squeeze the balls twice after counting up to ten" and "repeat it until the end of the procedure". This ball was medium hard and it was made of high quality silicon.
干预措施: Stress ball (Other)
Music
The patients in "Group 3" were listened to the music chosen by them with a headset as a nonpharmacological method during lithotripsy.
干预措施: Music (Other)
