Cold Application

Created by the researcher; A bandage with 3 pieces of 13x10 cm cold gel and a cold gel container in which they are placed will be used, which can be adjusted according to the head circumference of the patient between 60-80 cm in length. The ability of the cold gel cups of the bandage to be moved on the bandage will allow comfortable cold application to the patient's bilateral frontotemporal and occipital areas at the same time. After waiting for 20 minutes in the freezer part of the refrigerator, the temperature and temperature of the gels applied and the cold application area before and after each application will be measured and recorded. An Infrared Non-Contact Food Thermometer will be used for temperature measurement of cold gel packs, and an Infrared Non-Contact Thermometer device will be used for temperature measurement of the cold application area.
