Comfort Level After Transfemoral Coronary Angiography
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
With the increase in the number of cardiovascular diseases, the safety of the angiography method used in diagnosis and treatment becomes important. The transfemoral approach is often preferred during angiography. It is recommended to have bed rest for 6-12 hours after transfemoral angiography (TFA) to prevent possible complications. In order to reduce the complications arising from angiography, it is predicted from the studies that giving the patient a therapeutic position, elevating the head of the bed and gradual early mobilization will reduce the patients' groin pain, prevent urinary retention and increase patient comfort. In this study, the effect of gradual mobilization after transfemoral angiography on the vital signs, complications and comfort level of the patients. It is planned to be done to determine the

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Pulse rate per minute [20 minutes]
Vital signs
- blood pressure rate, mmHg [20 minutes]
Vital signs
- respiratory rate per minute [20 minutes]
Vital signs
- SpO2 value of the patients will be measured. [20 minutes]
Vital signs
Secondary Outcome Measures
- General Comfort Scale [The comfort scale will be filled 2 hours after mobilization.]
It is used to determine the comfort level of patients. The highest score that can be given to the positive items in the scale, four (4), indicates high comfort, and the lowest score, one (1), indicates low comfort. Thus, the lowest score that can be obtained in the GAS is 48 points, while the highest score is 192 points. As the score obtained from the scale increases, the comfort level perceived by the patient increases. The total score obtained is divided by 48, which is the number of scale items, and the average value is found in the range of 1-4. If the patient performing the scale has low comfort, it is expressed as one (1), and if the patient has high comfort, it is expressed as four (4).
