Trial summary

In the routine treatment procedure after coronary angiography (CAG), the patients remain in the supine position for a long time, which leads to decreased venous return and back pain. In addition, lying in the same position for 2 hours or more in the back area causes an increase in pressure. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of Back Support on Vital Signs and Comfort After Transfemoral Angiography

In the routine treatment procedure after coronary angiography (CAG), the patients remain in the supine position for a long time, which leads to decreased venous return and back pain. In addition, lying in the same position for 2 hours or more in the back area causes an increase in pressure. Increased pressure disrupts cell and tissue blood supply. The resulting pain may increase sympathetic stimulation. Therefore, sympathetic stimulation increases heart rate, blood pressure, myocardial oxygen consumption and cardiac workload. After the transfemoral coronary angiography (CAG) procedure, which is frequently applied to adults for both diagnosis and treatment, the back support to be applied to ensure that the vital signs (pulse, blood pressure, respiratory rate and blood oxygen saturation) of the patients remain stable and to increase their comfort level can prevent the deviation of the vital signs of the patients from normal and contribute to the treatment process with patient satisfaction.

After the transfemoral coronary angiography (CAG) procedure, which is frequently applied to adults for both diagnosis and treatment, the back support to be applied to ensure that the vital signs (pulse, blood pressure, respiratory rate and blood oxygen saturation) of the patients remain stable and to increase their comfort level can prevent the deviation of the vital signs of the patients from normal and contribute to the treatment process with patient satisfaction.

This study will be conducted to evaluate the effect of back support on patients undergoing transfemoral angiography on the patients' vital signs, which are defined as pulse, blood pressure, respiratory rate and blood oxygen saturation (SPO2), as well as comfort levels indicating satisfaction levels.

The study is planned to be completed between September 1, 2024 and April 1, 2025. The universe of the study, which was conducted as a randomized controlled trial model, consisted of patients who underwent angiography in the cardiovascular surgery intensive care units of Tunceli State Hospital. Randomization of the participants was planned to be assigned to the experimental and control groups via random.org (Back support group=40, Control group=40). "Patient Information Form", "Visual Analog Scale (VAS)" and "Immobilization Comfort Scale (IMC)" will be used in data collection. General linear model and mixed ANOVA analysis will be performed according to the characteristics of the data.

Patient Participation

What participants receive

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

  • Back SupportOther

    When the sandbag is to be left by the researcher together with the nurse caring for the patient, the patient will be placed in the left lateral position for a short time, a gel-filled orthopedic non-sweating viscose pillow will be placed in the patient's lumbar region and the patient will be placed in a supine position with the head supported.

Study groups in NCT06643182
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Back Gupport GroupExperimentalAfter the transfemoral angiography procedure, the patient will be taken to bed and monitored. Approximately 2 hours after the procedure, under the control of the doctor and nurse, the sheath in the patient's groin area will be pulled and a 3 kg sandbag will be left. A 36x33x10 cm gel-containing visco pillow will be placed in the patient's lumbar cavity by the research nurse and primary nurse to fill the anatomical space. The patient will be monitored in a supine position with the head elevated (30 degrees) and blood pressure, pulse, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation and comfort and pain level will be recorded at 0, 3 and 6 hours.
Receives: Other: Back Support
Control GroupNo interventionThe patients in this group will be monitored in the supine position with the head elevated (30 degrees) without pillow support and blood pressure, pulse, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation and comfort and pain level will be recorded at 0, 3 and 6 hours.

What is being measured

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

  1. Effect of back support use on pulse

    Patients will be monitored for 6 hours in a supported supine position and Pulse will be recorded at 3-hour intervals.

    Measured: 6 hour (Data collection time for each patient)

  2. Effect of back support use on blood pressure

    Patients will be monitored for 6 hours in a supported supine position and blood pressure will be recorded at 3-hour intervals.m

    Measured: 6 hour (Data collection time for each patient)

  3. Effect of back support use on respiratory rate

    Patients will be monitored for 6 hours in a supported supine position and respiratory rate will be recorded at 3-hour intervals.m

    Measured: 6 hour (Data collection time for each patient)

  4. Effect of back support use on partial oxygen saturation

    Patients will be monitored for 6 hours in a supported supine position and partial oxygen saturation will be recorded at 3-hour intervals.m

    Measured: 6 hour (Data collection time for each patient)

  5. Effect of back support use on comfort

    The immobilization comfort scale consists of 20 items and 6 statements. The total score is between 20 and 120. Scoring was done before and after back support.

    Measured: 6 hour

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Effect of back support use on pain

    The numbers on the pain scale (VAS) are ranked from 0 to 10 at equal intervals, with pain intensity of 1-3 indicating mild pain; 4-6 indicating moderate pain; and 7-10 indicating severe pain. Scoring was done at 0th hour (before back support), 3rd hour (during back support) and 6th hour (after back support).

    Measured: 6 hour
