About

This study aims to determine the effects of shotblocker and manual pressure applied during peripheral venous catheter placement on pain and satisfaction. 81 patients hospitalized in the Urology clinic will be included in the study. Patients will be assigned to three groups as shotblocker (n=27), manual pressure (n=27) and control group (n=27) by block randomization method.

Research Hypotheses

  • H1-1: The mean pain scores of the intervention group to which shotblocker was applied during peripheral intravenous catheterization are different from the control group.
  • H1-2: The mean pain scores of the intervention group to which manual pressure was applied during peripheral intravenous catheterization are different from the control group.
  • H1-3: The mean satisfaction scores of the intervention group to which shotblocker was applied during peripheral intravenous catheterization are different from the control group.
  • H1-4: The mean satisfaction scores of the intervention group to which manual pressure was applied during peripheral intravenous catheterization are different from the control group.

81 participants in 3 patient groups

Manual pressure
Experimental group
Description:
Before placing a peripheral intravenous catheter in the manual pressure group, the vein entry area will be pressed with the right thumb for 10 seconds. The pressure will be applied until the nail bed turns white.
Treatment:
Other: Manual pressure
Shotblocker
Experimental group
Description:
In the Shotblocker group, the shotblocker will be placed 2 cm above the vein entry point and will remain throughout the procedure.
Treatment:
Other: Shotblocker
Control
No Intervention group
Description:
The control group will undergo standard peripheral catheter placement without any intervention.
