H2. Relaxing breathing exercise applied to the patients before the bone marrow biopsy procedure reduces the pain level of the patients compared to the control group.

H3. Relaxing breathing exercise applied to the patients before the bone marrow biopsy procedure is effective on the respiratory rate of the patients compared to the control group.

H4. Relaxing breathing exercise applied to the patients before the bone marrow biopsy procedure is effective on the pulse rate of the patients compared to the control group.

H5. Relaxing breathing exercise applied to the patients before the bone marrow biopsy procedure is effective on the blood pressure of the patients compared to the control group.
