Detaljerad beskrivning
In this study, 68 nursing students were randomly assigned to the acupressure and placebo (sham) acupressure groups. In the acupressure group (n=34), compression was applied to the 7th point of the heart meridian (HT7), the 4th point of the large intestine meridian (LI4), the 36th point of the stomach meridian (ST36), and the 6th point of the spleen meridian (SP6). Depending on the preparation and compression time at each point, the session duration of each student lasted an average of 20 minutes. In the sham group (n=34), pressure was applied approximately 1-1.5 cm away from the HT7, LI4, ST36, SP6 points. In the sham group, the acupressure application time lasted for an average of 20 minutes. At the end of the application, after the data collection process was completed, the sham group was taught the correct acupuncture points. Students applied acupressure three times a week for a total of 12 sessions for four weeks. Data were collected before and four weeks after the application in the acupressure and sham acupressure groups.

Fatigue evaluated using the Fatigue Severity Scale
Tidsram: Change from before implementation and 4th week of practice
|
It is a Likert-type scale consisting of a total of nine items, each item being evaluated between 1 and 7 (1=I totally disagree, 7=I totally agree). The fatigue score is obtained by dividing the total score obtained from the scale by the number of scale items. The score that can be obtained from the scale varies between 9 and 63. A high score indicates an increased level of fatigue. |
