Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This randomized controlled study was planned to determine the effect of hot application, which is one of the non-pharmacological methods that can be applied to reduce pain during the Rigid Cystoscopy procedure, on pain, anxiety and comfort levels on 62 persons.As a result, it was found that there was a statistically significant difference between the visual comparison scale scores during and after the procedure according to the participants' groups.

- Experimental : Heat application was not applied routinely to the intervention group, and unlike the intervention group, heat application was not applied only with thermophor to the control group. However, the scales and forms were evaluated and blood pressure and pulse rate were measured during the same period. Incollecting data; 'Individual Introduction Form', 'Information Form Regarding the Cystoscopy Procedure', 'Visual Comparison Scale (VAS)', 'Data Recording Form', 'State Anxiety Scale' and 'General Comfort Scale Short Form' were used. Thermophor Prosedure Before the cystoscopy procedure, the temperature of the water was measured as 40-45°C. Approximately two-thirds of the bag was filled with hot water and the air in the bag was removed. The bag was dried and checked for leakage, then wrapped with the bag's cover and placed on the patient's lower abdomen body area 5 minutes before the cystoscopy procedure.
