NCT02725281

Brief Summary

Investigators observed that during the Extracorporeal Shock Wave Lithotripsy (ESWL) non-pharmacological methods used for reducing the level of the pain and anxiety among the patients with the urinary stones are not sufficient and the effectiveness of these methods is controversial. There are very few studies, which investigated the effects of music on the pain and anxiety during ESWL. In addition, any randomized clinical trial related to the use of stress ball for relaxation and distraction on the reduction of pain and anxiety during lithotripsy has not been found in the relevant literature. Investigators also evaluated that further evidence-based studies are necessary. Thus, investigators aimed to investigate the effectiveness of stress ball and music for reducing the pain and anxiety of the patients during ESWL in this study.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • A change on pain severity in VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) pain scale reported by the patients at the end of lithotripsy procedure compared with the baseline

    Pain

    5 min before and 5 min after the ESWL process

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • A change on anxiety level in STAI-SA (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-State Anxiety) at the end of procedure compared with the baseline

    5 min before and 5 min after the ESWL process

Study Arms (3)

Control group

NO INTERVENTION

The patients in "Group 1" didn't receive any intervention during ESWL.

Stress ball

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The patients in "Group 2" were given stress ball into both their palms 5 minutes before ESWL. Participants were instructed to "squeeze the balls twice after counting up to ten" and "repeat it until the end of the procedure". This ball was medium hard and it was made of high quality silicon.

Other: Stress ball

Music

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The patients in "Group 3" were listened to the music chosen by them with a headset as a nonpharmacological method during lithotripsy.

Other: Music

Interventions

The patients in this group were given stress ball into both their palms 5 minutes before ESWL. Participants were instructed to "squeeze the balls twice after counting up to ten" and "repeat it until the end of the procedure". This ball was medium hard and has been made of high quality silicon.

Stress ball
MusicOTHER

The patients in this group were also listened to the music chosen by them with a headset from 5 min before until the end of lithotripsy. Types of music played for the patients were Turkish folk music, Turkish art music, Turkish arabesque music, Turkish pop music, foreign pop music, rock music, and classical music.

Music
