Brief Summary

Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) guided prostate biopsy is a gold standard method widely used in the diagnosis of prostate cancer. This procedure can be very painful and anxious for men. Various pharmacological methods can be used to relieve patients' pain and discomfort during TRUS-guided prostate biopsy. Although there is still no consensus on the solution suggestions for pain and anxiety due to biopsy, it is known that music, which is a non-pharmacological method, is effective in this regard. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of music with structured verbal training on patients' pain, anxiety and satisfaction levels during transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • change on pain intensity as measured by Visual Analog Scale

    The average score change on pain intensity as measured by Visual Analog Scale. This scale is an unidimensional measure commonly used to measure pain intensity. The scale is a measuring tool with length of 0-10 cm (0-100 mm). High scores on the scale indicate that pain intensity is high.

    "just before procedure", "during procedure" and "5 minutes after procedure"

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • score change on anxiety level as measured by State-Trait Anxiety Inventory

    "just before procedure" and "5 minutes after procedure"

Study Arms (2)

Music Group with Structured Verbal Training

EXPERIMENTAL

Music with structured verbal training was applied during transrectal ultrasound guided prostate biopsy.

Other: Music with Structured Verbal Training

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

The control group did not listen to music during the procedure, and they received routine training.

Interventions

Structured verbal training on prostate biopsy was given to the intervention group before the procedure, and then patients in this group listened to the music they preferred during the procedure with headphones.
