Massage is one of the relaxation techniques commonly used in recent years to control pain, stress, and anxiety.
This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of hand massage application on pain, anxiety, and vital signs before venipuncture procedure.
The sample of the study consisted of 97 individuals (48 experimental and 49 controls) who were admitted to a training and research hospital in Turkey between December 2018 and May 2019. Individuals assigned to the experimental group received hand massage. The data were obtained with an individual information form, a visual analog scale (VAS), and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI).
The mean age of the participants was 49.52 ± 12.48 years. There was no significant difference between the pain levels of the experimental and control groups (p > .05), but the anxiety level of the experimental group was significantly less than that of the control group (p < .05). There was also a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in terms of systolic and diastolic blood pressure and heart rate. The blood pressure and heart rate of the experimental group decreased significantly (p < .05).
Hand massage was found to be a simple, non-pharmacologic, inexpensive, and independent nursing practice that could be used to reduce anxiety and positively affect vital signs in patients before venipuncture procedure.
按摩是近年来常用的放松技术之一，用于控制疼痛、压力和焦虑。
本研究旨在评估手部按摩应用于静脉穿刺术前对疼痛、焦虑和生命体征的影响。
该研究的样本由 97 名个体（实验组 48 名，对照组 49 名）组成，他们于 2018 年 12 月至 2019 年 5 月期间入住土耳其的一家培训和研究医院。实验组接受手部按摩。通过个人信息表、视觉模拟量表（VAS）和状态-特质焦虑量表（STAI）获得数据。
参与者的平均年龄为 49.52±12.48 岁。实验组和对照组的疼痛水平无显著差异（p>.05），但实验组的焦虑水平明显低于对照组（p<.05）。实验组和对照组的收缩压、舒张压和心率也存在显著差异。实验组的血压和心率明显下降（p<.05）。
手部按摩是一种简单、非药物、经济且独立的护理实践，可以用于减轻静脉穿刺术前患者的焦虑并对生命体征产生积极影响。
