简要总结
TThis study was designed as a single-group comparative prospective intervention study. The aim of the study was to assess the effectiveness of different pain management interventions during AVF cannulation. The effects of pain management methods such as cooling spray, aloe vera gel, and the standard procedure on pain levels, and which intervention was more effective in reducing pain compared to the standard procedure, were investigated.
The study included patients over 18 and under 65 years old, undergoing hemodialysis, having an AVF, literate, without an aloe vera allergy, and without communication barriers or psychiatric disorders.
The main research questions were defined as follows: Did different pain management methods (cooling spray, aloe vera gel, and standard procedure) affect pain levels during AVF cannulation? Which intervention was more effective in reducing pain levels? The primary hypotheses were defined as The application of cooling spray and aloe vera gel would reduce pain levels more than the standard procedure.
The researchers compared pain levels after each intervention to determine which one was more effective. Three different interventions (cooling spray, aloe vera gel, and standard procedure) were applied to participants in sequence, and pain levels were assessed after each intervention using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Additionally, feedback from participants regarding each intervention was collected.

结局指标
主要结局
Pain Level (VAS - Visual Analog Scale)
时间窗: 3 months
The pain level experienced by patients after AVF cannulation was assessed using the VAS (0-10 scale). Pain scores were recorded and compared across all three interventions. Lower VAS scores indicate greater effectiveness of the intervention in pain reduction. n this scale, patients are asked to describe their pain using numbers, where "0" represents no pain and "10" indicates the highest, unbearable pain.
