Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Anxiety level | 30 minutes after angiography | This inventory, which consists of a total of 40 items, is analyzed in two separate sections: The first part is the State Anxiety Inventory, which consists of 20 items, and the individual answers this section with his/her current feelings. The second part is the Trait Anxiety Inventory, which also consists of 20 items, and the individual answers this section with the feelings they have felt in the last 7 days. |
| Comfort level | 30 minutes after angiography | The scale, which is based on the concept of comfort, consists of a total of 24 items, 12 of which question the comfort status of the individual before and after the surgical intervention, 12 of which question positive and 12 of which question negative experiences. |
| Pain level | 30 minutes after angiography | Pain will be assessed with the Visual Analog Scale. This scale consists of a 10 cm line with values between 0 and 10. The beginning of the line (number 0) indicates no pain, while the end of the line (number 10) indicates the most severe pain. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Blood pressure to be assessed with monitor | 30 minutes after angiography | The patient's blood pressure will be measured from the brachial artery with a bedside monitor and the result will be recorded in mmHg. |
| Pulse to be assessed with monitor | 30 minutes after angiography | Heart rate will be measured with a bedside monitor that can be measured from a finger and recorded as beats/min. |
| Respiratory rate | 30 minutes after angiography | Respiratory rate will be measured by counting the number of inspirations and expiration from the patient's chest movements. |
