Brief Summary
Objective The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of ShotBlocker administration during measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccination on infants' pain level and mothers' satisfaction.
Method. The study was conducted in a Family Health Center affiliated to the Public Health Directorate of a province in eastern Turkey between August and October 2024 using a randomized controlled experimental design.
