Effect of Heat Aplication to Patients During Cystoscopy Procedure on Pain, Anxiety and Comfort Level A: Randomized Controlled Trial

This randomized controlled study was planned to determine the effect of hot application, which is one of the non-pharmacological methods that can be applied to reduce pain during the Rigid Cystoscopy procedure, on pain, anxiety and comfort levels on 62 persons.As a result, it was found that there was a statistically significant difference between the visual comparison scale scores during and after the procedure according to the participants' groups.

Detailed Description

This study was planned to determine the effect of hot application, which is one of the non-pharmacological methods that can be applied to reduce pain during the Rigid Cystoscopy procedure, on pain, anxiety and comfort levels.

This study is a randomized controlled experimental study to determine the effect of heat application on patients' pain, anxiety and comfort levels during the cystoscopy procedure. The population of the research consisted of individuals who were hospitalized in the Cystoscopy unit of Manisa Provincial Health Directorate Merkez Efendi State Hospital between November 2023 - June 2024, and the sample consisted of individuals who met the inclusion criteriaan dagreed to participate in the research. Participants (n=62) were randomized into two groups: intervention (n=31) and control group (n=31) in a 1:1 ratio, using random numbers generated by the simple randomization method on the computer. The intervention group consisted of 5 women and 26 men, the control group consisted of 8 women and 23 men, a total of 13 women and 49 men who is over over 18 years The sample group was presented according to the CONSORT diagram. Heat application was not applied routinely to the intervention group, and unlike the intervention group, heat application was not applied only with thermophor to the control group. However, the scales and forms were evaluated and blood pressure and pulse rate were measured during the same period. Incollecting data; 'Individual Introduction Form', 'Information Form Regarding the Cystoscopy Procedure', 'Visual Comparison Scale (VAS)', 'Data Recording Form', 'State Anxiety Scale' and 'General Comfort Scale Short Form' were used.

Experimental: İntervention Group

Experimental :

Heat application was not applied routinely to the intervention group, and unlike the intervention group, heat application was not applied only with thermophor to the control group. However, the scales and forms were evaluated and blood pressure and pulse rate were measured during the same period. Incollecting data; 'Individual Introduction Form', 'Information Form Regarding the Cystoscopy Procedure', 'Visual Comparison Scale (VAS)', 'Data Recording Form', 'State Anxiety Scale' and 'General Comfort Scale Short Form' were used.

Thermophor Prosedure

Before the cystoscopy procedure, the temperature of the water was measured as 40-45°C. Approximately two-thirds of the bag was filled with hot water and the air in the bag was removed. The bag was dried and checked for leakage, then wrapped with the bag's cover and placed on the patient's lower abdomen body area 5 minutes before the cystoscopy procedure.
