Обзор

Endoscopy is one of the most frequently performed procedures for the early diagnosis and treatment of many diseases and plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and treatment of upper gastrointestinal disorders. Sometimes, endoscopy may be the only option for detecting certain diseases of the stomach and larynx. However, for many patients, endoscopy is considered an invasive, highly painful, and extremely uncomfortable procedure. Furthermore, anxiety and fear felt before the procedure can cause physical and emotional discomfort, disrupt patient comfort, and cause pain.

Подробное описание

Endoscopy is one of the most frequently performed procedures for the early diagnosis and treatment of various gastrointestinal disorders and plays a critical role, particularly in the evaluation of upper gastrointestinal system pathologies. In certain clinical situations, endoscopy may be the only reliable method for identifying diseases occurring in the stomach, esophagus, and larynx. Despite its diagnostic and therapeutic value, endoscopy is commonly perceived by patients as an invasive, uncomfortable, and often painful procedure. In addition, the anxiety and fear experienced before the procedure can lead to both physical and emotional distress, negatively affecting overall patient comfort and potentially intensifying the perception of pain.

Moderate to severe anxiety during endoscopy has been shown to increase the likelihood of procedural difficulties, prolong the duration of the examination, reduce patient satisfaction, and elevate the risk of complications. These adverse effects highlight the importance of implementing non-pharmacological strategies aimed at reducing anxiety and improving patient comfort. One such approach-guided visualization or visualized meditation-has gained attention as a simple, cost-effective, and patient-friendly method that promotes relaxation, reduces emotional tension, and supports pain management.

Considering the potential of guided visualization to enhance tolerance to the procedure and improve patient experiences, researchers were motivated to explore its effectiveness in this specific population. Therefore, this study was designed to determine the effect of visualized meditation applied to patients undergoing endoscopy on their levels of anxiety, pain, and comfort.

Вмешательства

    In the study, the experimental group will listen to visualized meditation sessions daily, morning and evening, for three days before the endoscopy. On the morning of the endoscopy, patients will be administered a personal information form, STAI1-2, pain scale, and comfort scale. After the procedure, the patients will be taken to the recovery area and will be administered the STAI1-2, pain scale, and comfort scale again.
