简要总结
This study aims to evaluate whether using a stress ball together with listening to music during a colonoscopy procedure can reduce patients' pain and anxiety and improve their overall experience of the procedure. Colonoscopy is an important method for diagnosing and preventing colorectal diseases, but it can often cause discomfort, pain, and anxiety in patients.
In this randomized controlled study, 100 patients undergoing colonoscopy without sedation are divided into two groups. One group receives the intervention, which includes listening to relaxing music and using a stress ball starting before the procedure and continuing throughout it. The other group receives standard care without any additional intervention.
Pain levels, anxiety levels, and patients' perceptions of the procedure are measured before and after the colonoscopy using validated assessment tools. Patient satisfaction with the intervention is also evaluated.
The study investigates whether simple, low-cost, and non-invasive methods such as music and stress ball use can improve patient comfort and experience during colonoscopy. The findings may help healthcare providers, especially nurses, to enhance patient-centered care practices.

结局指标
主要结局
Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
时间窗: 15 minutes before colonoscopy
Pain intensity was assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), a 10-cm scale ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates "no pain" and 10 indicates "worst imaginable pain." Higher scores indicate greater pain intensity.
State-Trait Anxiety Scale (STAI-S)
时间窗: 15 minutes before colonoscopy
Anxiety levels were assessed using the State Anxiety Scale of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-S), a 20-item self-report instrument with scores ranging from 20 to 80. Higher scores indicate higher levels of situational anxiety.
Perception of Colonoscopy Procedure
时间窗: 15 minutes before colonoscopy
Patients' perceptions of the colonoscopy procedure were evaluated using a structured questionnaire assessing perceived difficulty, duration, tolerability, and emotional responses before and after the procedure.
次要结局
- Visual Analog Scale (VAS)(5 minutes after the colonoscopy)
- State-Trait Anxiety Scale(5 minutes after the colonoscopy)
- Perception of Colonoscopy Procedure(immediately after the colonoscopy)
