Acute Coronary Syndrome & Acupressure

Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to examine the effect of acupressure on physiological parameters and anxiety levels in individuals diagnosed with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). H1-1: Acupressure applied to individuals diagnosed with ACS has an effect on the level of anxiety. H1-2: Acupressure applied to individuals diagnosed with ACS has an effect on blood pressure. H1-3: Acupressure applied to individuals diagnosed with ACS has an effect on heart rate. H1-4: Acupressure applied to individuals diagnosed with ACS has an effect on respiratory rate. H1-5: Acupressure applied to individuals diagnosed with ACS has an effect on the pain level. H1-6: Acupressure applied to individuals diagnosed with ACS has an effect on cortisol levels.

Clinical Trial Description

Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) affects millions of people every year; It refers to three types of coronary artery disease: unstable angina pectoris, non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTE MI) and ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). It is known that 19 million people in the world and 161 thousand people in our country lost their lives due to Cardiovascular Disease (CVD). Approximately 3 million people worldwide die due to STEMI.Individuals experiencing ACS generally; It is observed that he/she experiences burning, stinging and compressive chest pain, tachycardia, sweating, fatigue, dizziness, dyspnea, nausea, anxiety and depression.Management of the disease is combined with pharmacological applications; It is tried to be provided with non-pharmacological applications such as education, acupuncture and acupressure. When the literature is examined, acupressure application; in the physiological parameters of individuals with myocardial infarction; It brings blood pressure, heart rate and respiratory rate to normal limits, and increases oxygen saturation and sleep quality; It appears to reduce anxiety and pain.For all these reasons, this study aims to examine the effect of acupressure on physiological parameters (blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, pain and cortisol) and anxiety levels in individuals diagnosed with ACS. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
