Numeric Rating Scale was used. The scale is composed of 0 (no pain at all) to 10 (worst imaginable pain)
1 minute-10 minutes
Study Arms (3)
control group
NO INTERVENTIONNo attempt was made to reduce pain in the patients in the control group. Standard PIVC insertion procedure was applied.
rose oil group
EXPERIMENTALAfter the patients in the rose aromatherapy group were placed in a sitting position, a face mask with 1-2 drops of rose oil was placed on the nose area. Then, the standard PIVC insertion procedure was applied. After the procedure, the patient's rose-scented mask was replaced with a standard mask.
hand holding group
EXPERIMENTALAfter the patients in the hand-holding group were placed in a sitting position, the patient's family was asked to hold the patient's hand and not let it go until the procedure was over. Standard PIVC insertion procedure was applied.
