Clinical Trial Summary

This study was carried out to determine the effect of breathing exercise performed during peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) application on pain, anxiety and patient satisfaction.

The study was completed as a randomized controlled experimental study with a total of 130 individuals who met the inclusion criteria. The Descriptive Characteristics Questionnaire, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and the Numerical Rating Scale were used to collect the data of the study. In addition, Algometer (66 Lb/30 Kg) device was used to evaluate the pain pressure threshold in determining the individuals to be included in the research sample. The individuals in the intervention group were given diaphragmatic breathing exercise while applying the catheter, and the individuals in the control group were inserted without any application.

Description:

This study was carried out to determine the effect of breathing exercise performed during peripheral intravenous catheter (PIVC) application on pain, anxiety and patient satisfaction.

The study was completed as a randomized controlled experimental study with a total of 130 individuals who met the inclusion criteria, 65 of whom were in the intervention group and 65 in the control group. Ethics committee approval, institutional permission, and written informed consent from individuals were obtained in the study. The Descriptive Characteristics Questionnaire, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and the Numerical Rating Scale were used to collect the data of the study. In addition, Algometer (66 Lb/30 Kg) device was used to evaluate the pain pressure threshold in determining the individuals to be included in the research sample.

Related Conditions & MeSH terms

• Respiratory Aspiration
• Venipuncture

Intervention

Other:
• Breathing exercise
Diaphragmatic breathing exercises were taught to the individuals by the researcher and they were asked to start breathing exercises before starting PIVC. While the PIVC was being placed, the individuals continued the breathing exercise and the breathing exercise was terminated at the end of the application.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Pain level	Pain level measured with Numeric Rating Scale. The number "0" on the scale means that they do not feel any pain and the number "10" refers to the worst pain.	3 minutes after catheter insertion
Primary	Anxiety level	Anxiety level measured with Numeric Rating Scale. The number "0" on the scale means that they do not feel any anxiety and the number "10" refers to the highest level of anxiety.	3 minutes after catheter insertion
Secondary	Satisfaction level	Satisfaction level measured with Numeric Rating Scale. The number "0" in the scale indicates that the participants are not at all satisfied with the application, and the number "10" indicates the highest level of satisfaction.	3 minutes after catheter insertion
