This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of ShotBlocker on the intramuscular injection pain and satisfaction in emergency adult patients. This research was designed as a randomized controlled, double-blind, experimental study. The study was conducted with 74 patients who applied to the adult emergency department. Patients were randomized to ShotBlocker and control groups. Patient Assessment Form, Visual Analog Scale, and Visual Analog Patient Satisfaction Scale were used. The mean scores of postinjection pain and satisfaction level were analyzed between the groups; it was determined that while postinjection pain mean score of the experimental group was statistically significantly lower than that of the control group (p = 0.0001), satisfaction scores were statistically significantly higher in the experimental group than in the control group (p = 0.004). When the correlation between the intragroup Pain Scores (VAS) and the Satisfaction Scores (VAS) of the groups after injection was examined, a statistically significant and inverse correlation was found (p < 0.05). It was determined that ShotBlocker was effective in reducing intramuscular injection pain and increasing satisfaction levels.
本研究旨在评估 ShotBlocker 对急诊成年患者肌内注射疼痛和满意度的影响。本研究设计为随机对照、双盲、实验研究。研究对象为 74 名就诊于成人急诊科的患者。患者被随机分为 ShotBlocker 组和对照组。使用患者评估表、视觉模拟评分和视觉模拟患者满意度评分。对两组间注射后疼痛评分和满意度评分进行分析；结果表明，实验组注射后疼痛评分均值显著低于对照组（p = 0.0001），实验组的满意度评分显著高于对照组（p = 0.004）。当检查注射后两组的组内疼痛评分（VAS）和满意度评分（VAS）之间的相关性时，发现存在统计学显著的负相关（p < 0.05）。结果表明 ShotBlocker 可有效减轻肌内注射疼痛并提高满意度。
