About this study

Official title: The Effect of Cold Spray Applied Before Local Anaesthesia on Pain and Anxiety in Coronary Angiography Procedure: a Randomised Controlled Study

Coronary angiography is a reliable and valid method used in the diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). Coronary angiography is defined as the process of obtaining cineangiographic images by administering radio-opaque material to the coronary vessels via arterial route. Coronary angiography is frequently performed from brachial, radial and femoral arteries. The aim of coronary angiography is to determine the presence, localisation and extent of cardiovascular lesions.

Invasive interventions cause anxiety and pain in the patient, increase the level of anxiety and cause a number of negative effects such as increased use of sedative drugs, development of post-procedure complications, prolongation of the recovery process and hospitalisation time. It is stated that there is a positive relationship between reducing the anxiety of the patients and meeting the needs of the patients.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Cold SprayOther

    Cold Spray: Cold sprays, composed of liquefied gases under high pressure, rapidly evaporate from the applied area, causing a sudden drop in skin temperature. This condition leads to the temporary desensitization of pain receptors or the activation of ion channels, resulting in the brief alleviation of pain sensation. Various medical, non-medical, and surgical methods are employed to manage pain. Cold sprays are among non-medical methods, including massage, cold application, and distraction techniques. Therefore, cold sprays cannot be prescribed like medication. They are used for local anesthesia in cases of acute trauma, injections, blood collection, vein puncture, and similar situations.

Study groups in NCT06035237
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Experimental GroupExperimentalPatients in the experimental group were informed that cold spray would be applied to their arm in a supine position to reduce procedure-related pain. For femoral artery angiography, the central part of the inguinal access area was targeted, and for radial angiography, 2 cm above the styloid process of the radial bone was targeted, and cold spray (Chloroethyl spray) was applied for approximately 3 seconds from a height of 10 cm.
Receives: Other: Cold Spray
Control GroupNo interventionPain levels recorded with the VAS were evaluated for patients after the procedure using the state anxiety scale. Pain levels for control group patients were also assessed and recorded within the sheath after intravenous solutions were given. Anxiety levels were recorded after the procedure was completed.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pain levels recorded with the Visual Analog Scale

    VAS was used to evaluate the pain of the patients. The scale consists of emotion adjectives in which each emotion experienced by the person at that moment is marked with a vertical line on a plane. A value of zero is considered as not experiencing pain at all, and a value of ten is considered as experiencing pain completely.

    Measured: 1 minute

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pain levels recorded with the Visual Analog Scale (time frame: 1 minute). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Dec 2024.
