| Abstract: | AimThe aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the Buzzy application on pain and satisfaction during injections.BackgroundIntramuscular injections usually cause some degree of pain at the injection site. Patients are often afraid of receiving injections because they perceive that it will be painful.DesignThe study was a single-blind, randomized controlled trial.MethodPatients (n = 65) who receive diclofenac sodium intramuscularly at a state hospital in a city in the western region of Turkey were included in the study. The study data were collected by The Patient Information Form and Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Pain intensity and injection satisfaction scores were evaluated using the VAS.ResultsAccording to the findings of this research, the post-injection pain intensity and injection satisfaction scores of patients in the application group were found to be higher than in the control group.ConclusionIn conclusion, the Buzzy device has the potential to reduce injection related pain in adult patients who may be fearful of receiving such injections. |
