Sponsor's own description
Environmental stressors, pain and sleep disorders are common in intensive care patients and non-pharmacological approaches can be effective in the management of these factors. This study will be conducted to investigate the effect of stress ball use on pain, sleep quality and physiologic parameters in critically ill patients. The study is a randomised controlled study. In this study, Patient Information Form, Glasgow Coma Scale and Ramsey Sedation Scale, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Richard-Campbell Sleep Scale (RCS) will be used to collect data. Patients who were admitted to the intensive care unit and met the research criteria will be assigned to the experimental or control group and their verbal and written consents were obtained. Intensive care nurses can contribute to improving the sleep quality of patients, reducing pain and improving some physiological parameters with stress ball application.
