Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
With regular practice, relaxation has been found to have many benefits such as reducing sensitivity to pain and fatigue, facilitating the transition to sleep, and improving quality of life. Therefore, this study was planned to examine the effects of progressive muscle relaxation exercises applied to lymphoma patients on sleep, fatigue, and pain.

- timeFrame
- Baseline, pre-intervention (Before progressive muscle relaxation exercises applied)
- description
- The patients were asked to mark their level of pain during relaxation or activities on a 10 cm vertical or horizontal line. In addition, there were forms which were numbered from 1-10 or from 1-100. The number 0 is found at the beginning of the line, and the number 10 is located at the end of the line. A value of 0 shows that there is no pain, and the value 10 expresses unendurable pain. GAS is a common scale in the assessment of pain level. A patient is asked to mark the perceived pain on this line, and the marked point is measured in cm.
