“…In our study, there was no significant difference in the post-intervention period concerning peripheral oxygen saturation between the four groups, since 10 s was not sufficient for appearance of changes in the peripheral oxygen saturation. In addition, the other physiological response variable, pulse rate, did not show a significant difference, as in a previous study [7,9,30]. These results show that an insignificant physiological response may be insufficient to indicate pain.…”

Purpose: Venipuncture is an invasive procedure for diagnosis and treatment, which is often attributed to pain and anxiety. In this study, a thermoelectric element (TEE) band was developed to apply heat therapy (40~45 C), cold therapy (0~10 C), or thermal grill illusion (TGI) therapy (40~45 C, 0~10 C) to cause an illusion of pain by simultaneously applying heat and cold. This band was subsequently used to investigate its effect on patient pain, anxiety, and satisfaction. Methods: This was a randomized controlled study. Participants, who were to undergo venipuncture, were randomly assigned to the heat therapy, cold therapy, TGI therapy, or control groups. Each group had 30 participants. The interventions were employed for 10 seconds during venipuncture, and the pain, anxiety, and satisfaction were measured before and after the procedure. Results: Subjective pain, anxiety, and physiological responses after TEE band intervention were not significantly different between the four groups. However, there was a significant difference in satisfaction (F ¼ 4.21, p ¼ .007) between the four groups, and the cold therapy group showed the highest satisfaction. Conclusion: In this study, when heat, cold, and TGI therapy were applied with a TEE band, pain and anxiety relief effects were not confirmed, but satisfaction was high. TEE band is a newly developed product that can easily apply hot and cold treatments without using ice packs or hot water packs. Further studies with various individual characteristics of chronic pain or repeated venipuncture are warranted to evaluate the effect of TEE.

“…Huang et al (2020) found that acupressure reduced anxiety levels in patients undergoing CAG. Similarly, Yıldırım and Yıldız (2021) found that anxiety levels decreased during intravenous interventions using LI 4 and two other acupressure points. The findings of this study are in line with the literature regarding the effectiveness of VR and acupressure interventions in reducing anxiety.…”

BackgroundPain and anxiety management in patients undergoing medical and surgical procedures is an important competence area for nurses.AimThis study aimed to determine and compare the effects of virtual reality and acupressure interventions on pain, anxiety, vital signs and comfort levels in the process of femoral catheter extraction for patients undergoing coronary angiography.MethodsThe study was a single‐blind, three‐group, randomized controlled trial conducted in the cardiology clinics of a university hospital in 2021. A total of 153 patients (51 virtual reality, 51 acupressure, 51 control) participated in the study. Data were collected using a Visual Analogue Scale, the State–Trait Anxiety Inventory, a vital signs follow‐up form and the Perianesthesia Comfort Scale.ResultsBoth intervention groups had significantly lower pain and anxiety scores, as well as higher comfort scores, compared to the control group (p < 0.001). The virtual reality group had lower systolic blood pressure, respiratory rate and pulse rate than the control group (p < 0.05). The acupressure group had lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure and respiratory rate than the control group (p < 0.05).ConclusionsWhile neither intervention group was found to be superior to the other, both interventions improved vital signs and comfort levels by reducing pain and anxiety.

“…Sementara itu, jenis kelamin mayoritas terkena pre hipertensi adalah perempuan (37,5%) dibandimgkan dengan laki-laki (29,2%). Hasil penelitian ini sejalan dengan penelitian Yildirim & Yildiz (2021) bahwa jenis kelamin laki-laki mengalami tekanan darah lebih rendah dibandingkan anak perempuan hal ini disebabkan oleh faktor eksternal dan internal anak, dimana anak perempuan rasa takut terhadap sesuatu yang menyakitkan lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan anak laki-laki yang sudah disegestikan oleh orang tua jika anak laki-laki harus pemberani dan kuat. Menurut Hu et al, (2020) indeks masa tubuh anak perempuan dengan anak laki-laki berbeda hal ini dikarenakan distribusi sel darah merah yang lebih tinggi pada anak yang sehat dibandingkan anak yang sakit, oleh karena itu sel darah merah pada anak yang sakit akan mempengaruhi tekanan darahnya dan anak yang menderita obesitas memiliki asupan air harian yang kurang dan meningkatkan sel darah merah pada anak.…”

“…Usia anak berhubungan dengan kejadian hipertensi pada anak hal ini terjadi karena adanya perubahan pada tekanan darah, semakin besar usia anak maka semakin mempengaruhi tekanan darah pada anak saat melakukan pengambilan darah vena (Goodman & Kitchen, 2021). Jenis kelamin laki-laki biasanya mengalami tekanan darah lebih rendah dan tidak banyak berubah dibandingkan dengan jenis kelamin anak perempuan hal ini di penaruhi oleh faktor eksternal dan internal anak (Yildirim & Yildiz, 2021).…”

This study aims to describe the characteristics of respondents during venous blood sampling on blood pressure in children. This type of research is observational research with a descriptive approach. The study results showed that the respondents who had normal blood pressure were school-age children, female, and the companion education was primary education (SD-SMP). Meanwhile, the pre-hypertension blood pressure of most school-age children of male and female gender with accompanying education is primary education. In conclusion, the description of respondents' characteristics during venous blood sampling on blood pressure in children is the majority of normal blood pressure with school-age children of male sex and companion education is primary education (SD-SMP).
