About this study

Randomized control is an experimental study. The purpose of this research; To examine the effects of inhaler lavender, focus and music on women's pain and anxi.ety in intrauterine device application.

In the randomized controlled experimental study, data would be obtained using the Numerical Anxiety Rating Scale and the Numerical Pain Rating Scale. 240 women who underwent IUD procedure at the Family Planning Consultancy Polyclinic of a secondary level public hospital in a city center between October and December 2023 were randomly assigned to receive 4 sets of 1 set of Inhaled lavender (60), 1 set of Focusing (60), 1 set of Music ( 60). 1 control group (60) will participate in the study.

Read the detailed description

The rate of women who want to use Family Planning in the world has reached approximately 1.1 billion in the last twenty years and has shown a significant increase ( WHO, 2020) . In addition, WHO reported that almost half of the pregnancies in developing countries between 2015 and 2019 were unwanted pregnancies (WHO, 2020) , and recommended effective FP counseling and the use of more modern contraceptive methods to prevent this (WHO, 2020) . In Turkey, the Ministry of Health provides individuals with free access to modern FP methods. Despite this, according to the 2018 data of the Turkey Demographic and Health Survey ( Akdemir and Karadeniz 2019), it has been reported that 49% of the FP method uses modern methods and the Intrauterine Device (IUD) is among the most effective modern methods with a rate of 14% (Akdemir and Karadeniz 2019 ). Factors affecting IUD use include; Women's perception of pain during application and the fact that it can be applied in certain centers (Dine et al,2018; Hunter et al, 2020; Hamdamian et al., 2018).

It has been reported in the literature that women perceive pain during IUD application (Akdemir and Karadeniz 2019; Dine et al,2018; Hunter et al, 2020; Hamdamian et al., 2018). Again, studies have reported the use of inhaled lavender, focus, and music to relieve pain and anxiety (Hamdamian et al., 2018; Hathcock et al., 2021; Türkmen et al.,2021) . These results emphasize the need for low-cost and applicable nonpharmacological methods for healthcare professionals during IUD insertion.

No study has been found in the literature examining the effects of inhaler lavender, focus and music on women's pain and anxiety during intrauterine device application. However, in line with the results of the study, it is thought that it will have a positive effect on reducing the pain and anxiety perceived by women during the IUD procedure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Numerical Pain Rating Scale Pain

    Numerical Pain Assessment Scale Pain (NADÖ): Numerical Pain Assessment Scale (NADÖ) is used to evaluate the severity of pain. On the numerical rating scale, pain ranges from 0 (absence of pain) to 10 (unbearable pain).

    Measured: Procedure (Speculum insertion)

  2. Numerical Pain Rating Scale Pain

    Numerical Pain Assessment Scale Pain (NADÖ): Numerical Pain Assessment Scale (NADÖ) is used to evaluate the severity of pain. On the numerical rating scale, pain ranges from 0 (absence of pain) to 10 (unbearable pain).

    Measured: up to 10 minutes (During the Pap smear test)

  3. Numerical Pain Rating Scale Pain

    Numerical Pain Assessment Scale Pain (NADÖ): Numerical Pain Assessment Scale (NADÖ) is used to evaluate the severity of pain. On the numerical rating scale, pain ranges from 0 (absence of pain) to 10 (unbearable pain).

    Measured: 15 minutes after the Pap smear test.

  4. The Verbal Category Scale

    The Verbal Category Scale is also called the Simple Descriptive Scale, and this scale is based on the patient choosing the most appropriate word that describes the pain condition. Pain intensity ranges from mild to unbearable. In this scale, the words "mild", "disturbing", "severe", "very severe", "unbearable" were used to describe the intensity of pain (

    Measured: Procedure (Speculum insertion)

  5. The Verbal Category Scale

Pain intensity ranges from mild to unbearable. In this scale, the words "mild", "disturbing", "severe", "very severe", "unbearable" were used to describe the intensity of pain (

    Measured: up to 10 minutes (During the Pap smear test)

  6. The Verbal Category Scale

    The Verbal Category Scale is also called the Simple Descriptive Scale, and this scale is based on the patient choosing the most appropriate word that describes the pain condition. Pain intensity ranges from mild to unbearable. In this scale, the words "mild", "disturbing", "severe", "very severe", "unbearable" were used to describe the intensity of pain (

    Measured: 15 minutes after the Pap smear test.

  7. Numerical Rating Scale for Anxiety (VASA).

    Numerical Rating Scale for Anxiety (VASA). It is expressed as whether the individual feels anxiety (e.g., I have a lot of anxiety = 10) or does not feel anxiety (e.g., I have no anxiety = 0).

    Measured: 5 minutes

  8. Numerical Rating Scale for Anxiety (VASA).

    Numerical Rating Scale for Anxiety (VASA). It is expressed a Outcome 8s whether the individual feels anxiety (e.g., I have a lot of anxiety = 10) or does not feel anxiety (e.g., I have no anxiety = 0).

    Measured: 2 minutes
