Summary

Pregnancy termination is a difficult and painful procedure can be done by medically or uterine curettage. Studies have been conducted to reduce the anxiety of women undergoing pregnancy termination, but there are no publications on topics such as anxiety, pain perception, and pain catastrophizing.

Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) has been called "the art and science of personal excellence", "the study of subjective experience". NLP helps us understand the difference between our actions that produce mediocre results or failure and those that require success or excellence.

NLP: "How do I do something I do well?", "How can I do it better?", "How can I gain skills that I admire in others? It addresses questions like ". It is important to note that NLP is not limited to observable behavior. Our way of thinking, that is, all experience and it also includes the mental processes that control our actions. By dealing with the entire structure of a person's experience (in fact, their motivation), it tries to shape the thought processes, emotions and beliefs that result in a behavior. It is especially about our communication with ourselves as well as with others.

No study was planned on pain and pain perception during pregnancy termination by uterine curettage by teaching the NLP technique to the patients.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Neurolinguistic programming

In the NLP application protocol, the visual, auditory and/or tactile representation system that the woman uses most frequently will be determined. Then, using the anchoring technique, the internal reactions and external reactions created by the woman's current symptoms and emotions and thoughts regarding the urination process will be combined using the anchoring technique. Existing negative emotions will be reduced and positive emotions will be reinforced. Then, with the swish technique, the intensity of the woman's existing negative emotions will be erased from the most frequently used visual, auditory or tactile representation system. Then, taking into account the representation system that the woman uses most frequently, the belief change model will be used in her negative thoughts about the current symptom, and her negative feelings and thoughts will be replaced by positive feelings and thoughts and reinforced.
