Filter by:Low molecular weight heparin is a drug with anticoagulant and antithrombotic effects. This drug is frequently administered subcutaneously to patients by nurses. Complications such as pain, ecchymosis and hematoma may commonly occur at the injection site. This study investigated the effect of Hypericum Perforatum oil in preventing pain and ecchymosis after subcutaneous injection low molecular weight heparin. This quasi-experimental and single blinded study was conducted with 160 patients in a coronary intensive care unit. The researcher nurse applied 5-6 drops of Hypericum Perforatum oil to one arm of the patients 2 hours before the injection. The other arm of the patient was considered as the control arm. A total of 320 injections were administered. The evaluation of the injection sites was performed by two other researchers at 48th hours. The data were analyzed using Wilcoxon and McNemar test.
The proposed study aims to investigate the safety, tolerability, analgesic efficacy, and feasibility of intranasal sufentanil/ketamine (CT001) in pediatric participants attending an acute care (i.e. emergency) setting. The study is a part of the clinical development plan for the development of CT001 nasal spray for treatment of acute pain in children.
It is an experimental study conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of cold application to the LI4 point of the hand to reduce/eliminate pain, nausea and anxiety in postoperative patients. The population of the study consisted of 116 individuals who underwent abdominal surgery with the open surgery method in a state hospital between February 2022 and November 2022 and were followed up in the inpatient ward. The study was completed with 80 individuals constituting the experimental group (n=40) and the control group (n=40). Patient information form, Mcgill Melzack short pain form, Visual Analog Scale, STAI - TX and Cold Application Evaluation Form were used to collect data. Patients in the experimental group underwent cold application with ice cubes for a total of 20 minutes as 2 minutes of cold application and 15 seconds of waiting 4-6 hours after the patient was admitted to the clinic after surgical intervention. Follow-up was performed before cold application, immediately after cold application, 30 minutes after the end of cold application, 1 hour and 2 hours after the end of cold application.
Volunteers are invited to undergo 4 insertions of a peripheral intra-venous 18-gauge catheter (PIVC); 2 insertions at the the start of the study on the plantar side of the hand/vessel at the dorsum manus, 2 insertions after 2-10 hours into the forearm/cubita with and without application of a 10-% lidocaine spray (5 hubs of xylocaine 10%-pump spray; AstraZeneca BV, Zoetermeer, The Netherlands) prior to the insertion of the PIVC.
INTRODUCTION: Currently, there is no scientific evidence about pain in the anesthetic blockage of the first finger according to the application method. However, clinical evidence has valued the use of carpule, due to the low pain it generates in the patient to the application of anesthetic. Most studies on anesthesia and pain, especially with the use of carpule and distracting methods, belong to the field of dentistry. OBJECTIVES: It is intended to determine the pain after an anesthetic block in H of Frost in the first finger with different application methods, such as syringe and carpule. As secondary objectives, it is intended to establish the difference in pain according to the sex and age of the patients. METHODOLOGY: Experimental, transverse and random clinical trial type analytical study, in which a sample of 200 individuals will be selected, 100 per group, which would require digital anesthesia of the first finger and that would fulfill the inclusion criteria. Result: after the completion of the study CONCLUSIONS: After the completion of the study
This experimental study aimed to determine the effect of distracting children with a kaleidoscope during blood sampling on their perception of pain during the procedure and to increase and improve the quality of evidence for the effectiveness of these methods across different populations and cultures. Hypothesis 0 (H0): There is no difference between the pain scores of the kaleidoscope group and the control group during blood sampling. Hypothesis 1 (H1): There is a difference between the pain scores of the kaleidoscope group and the control group during blood sampling.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of baby massage applied to babies with retinopathy of prematurity on the pain and comfort of the newborn. This was randomised-controlled study in the NICU at the Health Sciences University Bursa High Specialization Training and Research Hospital, Bursa, Turkey. The population of the study will consist of preterms hospitalized in the neonatal intensive care unit during the time period of the study. In the calculation of the sample size, the power level was 80% and the significance level was 5%. When the effect size was determined as 0.8 in the examination of the difference between the experimental and control groups in terms of the premature infant pain profile (PIPP) variable, it was determined by the statistical expert that the number of babies to be included in each group was 26 and 52 babies in total should be included in the study. Based on this, the study sample was determined as 60 preterm infants in 30 experimental and 30 control groups. Block randomization method will be applied in the randomization of the groups. Case report form, PIPP=Premature Infant Pain Scale and Premature Infant Comfort Scale (PBIQ) will be used to collect the study data. Patients included in the study will be examined by the same ophthalmologist. The infant massage to be applied before the examination will be applied by a single nurse=researcher. Video recordings will be taken before and during the ROP examination and evaluations will be made by two neonatal nurses other than the researcher. Infants will be massaged by the researcher in accordance with IAIM guidelines and massage techniques. Total massage time will be equal for each infant. The researcher has an IAIM infant massage certificate. Before starting the infant massage, jewelry will be removed and hands will be washed. In the study, leg and face massage will be applied among the massage techniques in the IAIM guidelines.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect on patient's comfort of a virtual reality experience during a procedure of cardiac electronic device implantation under local anesthesia.
This study will be conducted to compare maternal and neonatal outcomes of pregnant women who applied to the delivery room in the early (latent) and late (active) phase. The population of the research will consist of participants who applied to Darıca Farabi Training and Research Hospital for birth. To determine the sample size of the study, first, those who meet the inclusion criteria and are admitted to the delivery room in the latent phase and those who are accepted in the active phase will be numbered and recruited sequentially. When the number of participants in the 100 latent and 100 active acceptance groups is reached, the effect size will be calculated using the STAI score averages and the G*Power program, and the exact sample number will be determined, taking into account possible data losses. If necessary, data collection will continue until the target number is reached. Randomization will not be applied in the study. Data will be collected with the maternal and neonatal information form, State and Trait Anxiety Scale (STAI), Fear of Birth Scale, Neonatal Pain and Stress Assessment Scale (ALPS-Neo) and Visual analog scale for birth satisfaction. Data will be collected by the assistant researcher. Statistical analysis will be performed using IBM SPSS Statistic. Descriptive statistical methods will be used to evaluate socio-demographic data, and parametric/nonparametric tests will be used for comparative analyses.
The conventional method used for dental anesthesia in children is the administration of a local anesthetic solution by injection. Although this process successfully eliminates pain during the procedure, it continues to be a problem for many children in terms of dental anxiety before and during anesthesia administration. The aim of this study is to compare intraosseous anesthesia with SleeperOne® 5, a computer-assisted local anesthesia system, with conventional local anesthesia techniques in terms of pain and anxiety.
