Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Severity of pain using numerical pain scale | Three observations after the end arterial puncture procedure | The patient is asked to rate their pain on a 0-10 scale, where: 0 = No pain 1-3 = Mild pain (nagging, annoying, but doesn't interfere much with daily activities) 4-6 = Moderate pain (noticeable, bothersome, may interfere with concentration or some activities) 7-10 = Severe pain (very intense, disabling, interferes with most activities or rest) |
| Level of anxiety using the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale | Two observations before and after arterial puncture procedure | Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale consisted of 14 items measuring psychic anxiety (mental agitation) and somatic anxiety (physical complaints) Each item scored from 0 (not present) to 4 (severe) Total score ranges from 0-56, with higher scores indicating more severe |
