Summary

TThis randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of sensory isolation on anxiety and physiological parameters in patients undergoing fiberoptic bronchoscopy. The intervention involves the use of an eye mask and earplugs to reduce environmental stimuli. The study will comparatively assess the effects of sensory isolation on anxiety levels and physiological parameters, including blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen saturation.

Conditions

  • Anxiety Physiological Stress Responses ,Fiberoptic Bronchoscopy, Sensory Isolation

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Sensory Isolation (Eye Mask and Earplugs)

Participants assigned to the intervention group will receive sensory isolation using an eye mask and earplugs applied approximately 10 minutes before and during the fiberoptic bronchoscopy procedure. This is a non-pharmacological behavioral nursing intervention intended to minimize exposure to visual and auditory stimuli. Anxiety levels and physiological parameters will be assessed at predefined time points before, during, and after the procedure.
