Clinical Trial Summary

Hysterosalpingography (HSG) is the radiological evaluation of the uterine cavity and tubules by giving radiopaque material from the cervical canal to the uterine cavity. HSG is an invasive procedure and is often described by women as "uncomfortable, anxiety-inducing and painful", which indicates impaired comfort .Physical, emotional, sociocultural and environmental factors contribute to the formation of this condition. Comfort Theory is a nursing model that makes it easier for the caregivers to see their problems more systematically and to plan more easily. In the literature review, no studies have been found to determine the effect of Nursing Care Based on Kolcaba's Comfort Theory in Reducing Pain and Comfort on Women Undergoing Hysterosalpingography. It was aimed to determine the effect of Nursing Care Based on Kolcaba Comfort Theory on Pain and Comfort Level in Women Undergoing Hysterosalpingography Procedure.

Method. The universe of the research will form women applying for hysterosalpingography procedure in Turkey's northern province of the Health Research and Application Center between. The sample size to be taken from the universe was determined by power analysis based on the reference values of a similar study in the literature. According to the Power analysis, it was decided to include a total of 126 women, including 42 women, in each group (Control group, Intervention 1: Mobile-assisted education and counseling group, Intervention 2: Virtual reality glasses group). In this study, standard nursing care will be applied to the control group, and nursing care based on Kolcaba's Comfort Theory will be applied to the intervention groups.The data will be collected with the Visual Analog Scale(VAS) and General Comfort Questionnaire (GCQ)

Description:

In this study, Nursing care based on Kolcaba's Comfort Theory will be applied for women undergoing HSG. Before the HSG , the women will be met at the appointment time and the women will be given care during the procedure.Up to 15 minutes after the procedure will be with women. There will be 2 intervention groups and one control group. In the first intervention group, virtual reality glasses will be applied during the procedure, Mobile-assisted education and consultancy will be provided in the 2nd intervention group. This mobile assisted education and consultancy starts 48 hours before HSG shooting.The hsg capture will continue until it ends. Hospital care standards will be applied to the control group, the third group.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Visual Analog Scale(VAS)	After completing the HSG procedure, participants were asked to evaluate their pain in order to characterize pain intensity using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Patients indicated the maximum pain intensity experienced during the HSG by making a vertical line on the VAS.; A standard ten-point visual analogue scale (VAS) of 0 to 10 was designed and used to assess the patients' perceptions of discomfort during the procedure. A high score on the scale indicated a high level of discomfort and a score of 0 denoted no discomfort at all. Patients indicate the degree of pain they feel between 0-10.	10 minutes
Primary	General Comfort Questionaire (GCQ)	The scale, which was developed by Katharine Kolcaba in 1992 in order to determine the comfort needs of individuals, to evaluate the nursing initiatives that can provide comfort and the increase in comfort, was adapted to Turkish society by Kuguoglu and Karabacak in 2004.The scale, which is a four-point Likert-type scale with 48 items, was created by guiding the taxonomic structure consisting of the theoretical components of comfort, including 3 levels and 4 dimensions. Level; While the dimension is evaluated as relief (16 items), relief (17 items) and overcoming the problems (15 items); It is evaluated in three parts: physical (12 items), psychospritual (13 items) and socio-cultural (10 items). Negative expressions in the scale are calculated by reverse coding during the evaluation phase. While the lowest total score that can be obtained from the scale is 48, the highest total score is 192.	30 minutes
