Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | VISUAL ANALOGUE SCALE (VAS) | VAS is used to convert some values that cannot be measured numerically. This scale is a safe, easily applicable test that has proven itself for a very long time and has been accepted in all the world literature. The test has no language and its ease of implementation is an important advantage. It was used in this study to determine how much hot flashes complaints experienced by women affect their lives. It was explained to the women that one end of the scale did not affect their life at all (0), and that it affected their life too much as they approached the other end (10). The women were asked to mark the number on a divided line with numbers from 0 to 10, and how much they thought their hot flashes had affected their lives. | Baseline, 1 day | |
Primary | Introductory Information Form | women's socio-demographic characteristics , physical characteristics , pregnancy and birth information (pregnancy). number of people living together, spousal support, menstrual pattern, last menstrual period, age of mother's menopause, chronic diseases, smoking and alcohol use, vasomotor complaints, use of CAM and nursing support are included in a total of 27 questions. | Baseline, 1 day | |
Primary | Hot Flashes Scale Specific to Menopause | The Menopause-Specific Hot Flashes Scale is used to measure the effect of hot flashes on overall quality of life (item 10) and nine specific activities (item 1-item 9). Nine specific activities: work, social activities, leisure activities, sleep, mood, concentration, relationships with others, sexuality, enjoyment of life. How much hot flashes affect the woman's life during the last two weeks is evaluated by numerical rating method from 0 to 10. A value of 0 means "not at all affected" and a value of 10 means "very much affected". The total score is calculated by adding the numerical values of each item. | Baseline, 1 day, the ninetieth day | |
Primary | Menopause-Specific Quality of Life Scale | It is a 29-item Likert-type scale. The scale consists of four domains: vasomotor, psychosocial, physical and sexual. Vasomotor domain (questions 1-3), Psychosocial domain (questions 4-10), Physical space (questions 11-26), Sexual domain (questions 27-29), Each sub-domain score in the scale is ranked from 1 to 8. 1 point indicates that there is no problem with that. A score of 2 indicates that the problem exists, exists, but is not bothersome at all. Scores between 3 and 8 indicate the severity of the existing problem and its increasing degrees. | Baseline, 1 day, the ninetieth day | |
Primary | Aromatherapy Form | The usage time and usage amount of the aromatherapy oil will be filled on the aroma therapy form for 12 weeks. | 12 week |
