Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Prevention
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Stress ball
Data were collected by the investigator 25-30 minutes before coronary angiography and the first measurement of vital signs was made. After the stress ball application, State Anxiety Inventory data were collected for the second time and the second measurement of vital signs was made. Vital signs were measured and noted for the third time after coronary angiography.
Other: Stress ball
Stress ball squeeze
No Intervention: Control
25-30 minutes before the coronary angiography procedure, data were collected from the patients by the investigator and the first measurements of their vital signs were recorded. Vital signs were measured a second time just before coronary angiography without any intervention. Vital signs were measured and recorded for the third time after coronary angiography ischemia.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
State Anxiety Score
Time Frame: Change in state anxiety score within one day
Scale measuring patients' anxiety. The scores obtained from the scale vary between 20 and 80. A large score indicates high anxiety, and a small score indicates low anxiety.
Change in state anxiety score within one day

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Distress Thermometer
Time Frame: Only on day 1, 2 times a day (same day).
It is a scale that measures the patient's stress level. The scale is scored between 0 and 10 points. A score of 0 indicates no stress, and a score of 10 indicates extreme stress.
Only on day 1, 2 times a day (same day).
Systolic Blood Pressure Value (mmHg)
Time Frame: Only on day 1, 2 times a day (same day).
The effect of the intervention on systolic blood pressure is examined.
Only on day 1, 2 times a day (same day).
Diastolic Blood Pressure Value (mmHg)
Time Frame: It will be measured 3 times a day (same day) on day 1 only.
The effect of the intervention on diastolic blood pressure is examined.
It will be measured 3 times a day (same day) on day 1 only.
Heart Rate/Minute Value
Time Frame: It will be measured 3 times a day (same day) on day 1 only.
The effect of the intervention on the heart rate is examined.
It will be measured 3 times a day (same day) on day 1 only.
Respiratory Rate/Minute Value
Time Frame: It will be measured 3 times a day (same day) on day 1 only.
The effect of the intervention on the respiratory rate is examined.
It will be measured 3 times a day (same day) on day 1 only.
Peripheral Oxygen Saturation (SpO2) Value
Time Frame: It will be measured 3 times a day (same day) on day 1 only.
The effect of the intervention on peripheral oxygen saturation is examined.
It will be measured 3 times a day (same day) on day 1 only.
