Study Design

• Study Type: interventional
• Phase: not applicable
• Allocation: RANDOMIZED
• Masking: SINGLE
• Who Masked: OUTCOMES ASSESSOR
• Masking Details: To ensure that the recording of the data process was unbiased in this study, patients' anxiety and pain levels were assessed by asking patients questions and having them mark their responses on paper under the supervision of the nurse researcher, while the obtained anxiety and pain scores and the stress levels measured using a smartwatch were recorded on the forms by the independent ward nurse. The results of the study findings were analyzed by an independent statistician.
