Summary

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of stress ball application on the anxiety level during the endometrial biopsy procedure.

This research is planned as a randomised controlled study. Place and time of the research: The research is planned with patients who will undergo endometrial biopsy procedure in Zonguldak Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital affiliated to the Ministry of Health.

While there are various experimental studies in the literature on the effect of stress ball on anxiety during many painful procedures, there is no study in the literature on the effect of stress ball on anxiety level during endometrial biopsy procedure (Akarsu, Kuş \& Akarsu 2021, Genç 2021Nurdina, Anggraini \& Novyanda 2022, Srivarsan, Sridevi \& Preetha 2021, Yanks et al. 2018,) In this study, it was aimed to evaluate the effect of stress ball application on anxiety level during endometrial biopsy procedure

Conditions

  • Biopsy Wound
  • Endometrial Hyperplasia
  • Endometrial Neoplasms

Interventions

OTHER

stress ball

In the study, the experimental group was given a round, compressible ball for stress ball application and it was planned to squeeze this ball in their hands as often as they wanted during anaesthesia and endometrial biopsy application. The endometrial biopsy procedure is a procedure that usually takes between 8-10 minutes. The results will be evaluated considering these average times. As it is foreseen that individuals may experience the most intense anxiety and stress during anaesthesia and biopsy, it was preferred to cover this time period.

OTHER

control

In the study, the no intervention group ( control group) will receive no intervention and blood pressure and stress measurements will be made with routine care and nursing interventions.
