Testing Different Methods of Intramuscular Injection

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in different injection techniques. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are:

* Is there a difference between the pain levels due to needle insertion in the injection made with the HST Technique, the ShotBlocker technique and the standard technique?
* Is there a difference between the hematoma levels of the injection made with the HST Technique, the ShotBlocker technique and the standard technique?
* Is there a difference between the comfort levels of the injection made with the HST Technique, ShotBlocker technique and standard technique?
* Is there a difference between the satisfaction levels of the patients with the injection made with the HST Technique, ShotBlocker technique and standard technique?
* Is there a difference between the injection fear levels of patients with HST Technique, ShotBlocker technique and standard technique?

Conditions

• Injection Fear
• Injection Site Bruising
• Pain, Acute
• Satisfaction, Patient

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Helfer Skin Tap Technique

In a single-group design, 3 technique injections will be administered to the patients, to be randomized. The HST technique will be applied to patients in any one of 1days in a randomized fashion.

PROCEDURE

ShotBlocker Technique

In a single-group design, 3 technique injections will be administered to the patients, 1 technique per week, to be randomized. The ShotBlocker technique will be applied to patients in any one of 1 weeks(3 days) in a randomized manner.

PROCEDURE

Standard Technique

Standard Technique In a single-group design, 3 technique injections will be administered to the patients, 1 technique per days, to be randomized. The standard technique will be applied to patients in any one of 1 weeks in a randomized fashion.
