| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Systolic Blood Pressure Value (mmHg) | Only on day 1, 2 times a day (same day). | The effect of the intervention on systolic blood pressure is examined. |
| Diastolic Blood Pressure Value (mmHg) | It will be measured 3 times a day (same day) on day 1 only. | The effect of the intervention on diastolic blood pressure is examined. |
| Distress Thermometer | Only on day 1, 2 times a day (same day). | It is a scale that measures the patient's stress level. The scale is scored between 0 and 10 points. A score of 0 indicates no stress, and a score of 10 indicates extreme stress. |
