Duration of Intramuscular Injections

This study was a single-group crossover clinical trial, where each participant acted as their own control. Two intramuscular injections into the right and left Dorsal Gluteal Region (DRG) were recorded for each participant. One was administered by a nurse, according to the unit's routine, and took 5 seconds to complete. A day after, the same nurse gave the other injection in the opposite DGR, taking 40 seconds to administer. The five-second injections were considered the control group, while the 40 seconds injections were the intervention group. The order of interventions was randomized. The pain level was determined and recorded immediately after each injection.
