Intramuscular injection pain can create a negative experience for both patients and nurses performing the application. It has been recently become more important to reduce the pain and anxiety caused by injection in nursing care due to the prominence of the concept of quality in health services. This study was conducted to investigate the effect of manual pressure applied before injection and ShotBlocker on pain and injection satisfaction associated with intramuscular injection. This research is a randomized controlled experimental clinical trial. The sample of the study was composed of a total of 120 people over 18 years of age who applied to the emergency department of a university hospital. The participants were assigned to the ShotBlocker (40), the manual pressure (40) and the control group (40) with a randomization list generated using a computer. Visual Analog Scale and Injection Satisfaction Form were applied to the patients in the first minute after the injection. The ShotBlocker and the manual pressure groups had lower pain levels and higher injection satisfaction levels compared to the control group. Therefore, manual pressure and ShotBlocker are recommended to reduce pain associated with intramuscular injection and increase injection satisfaction.

İNTRAMÜSKÜLER ENJEKSİYONDA AĞRI VE MEMNUNİYET ÜZERİNDE MANUEL BASINÇ VE SHOTBLOCKER'IN KARŞILAŞTIRILMASI: RANDOMİZE KONTROLLÜ BİR DENEME

Öz

İntramüsküler enjeksiyon uygulamasına bağlı yaşanan ağrı hem hastalar hem de uygulamayı yapan hemşireler için olumsuz bir deneyim oluşturabilir. Sağlık hizmetlerinde kalite kavramının öne çıkması nedeniyle hemşirelik bakımında enjeksiyonun neden olduğu ağrı ve kaygıyı azaltmak son zamanlarda daha önemli hale gelmiştir. Bu çalışma, enjeksiyon öncesi uygulanan manuel basıncın ve ShotBlocker'ın intramüsküler enjeksiyonla ilişkili ağrı ve enjeksiyon memnuniyeti üzerindeki etkisini araştırmak için yapılmıştır. Bu araştırma, randomize kontrollü deneysel bir klinik araştırmadır. Araştırmanın örneklemini bir üniversite hastanesinin acil servisine başvuran 18 yaş üstü toplam 120 kişi oluşturmuştur. Katılımcılar bilgisayar kullanılarak oluşturulan bir randomizasyon listesi ile ShotBlocker (40), manuel basınç (40) ve kontrol grubuna (40) atanmıştır. Hastalara enjeksiyondan sonraki ilk dakika içinde Görsel Analog Skalası ve Enjeksiyon Memnuniyet Ölçeği uygulanmıştır. ShotBlocker ve manuel basınç grupları, kontrol grubuna kıyasla daha düşük ağrı seviyelerine ve daha yüksek enjeksiyon memnuniyet seviyelerine sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bu nedenle, intramüsküler enjeksiyonla ilişkili ağrıyı azaltmak ve enjeksiyon memnuniyetini artırmak için manuel basınç ve ShotBlocker önerilir.
