Brief Summary:
Cancer is a fatal disease characterized by uncontrolled growth and proliferation of tissues and organs in the human body Among cancer treatments chemotherapy is the most commonly used treatment method The drugs used in chemotherapy cause vascular toxic effects during administration frequent blood samples taken from the patient antibiotic treatments applied parenteral nutrition treatments Subcutaneous venous port catheter SCVPK which is a permanent and long-term vascular access route that can be used for medical purposes and in emergency situations is a frequently preferred and safe intravenous access route because it is not visible outside the body is well tolerated by the patient and has a low risk of infection However invasive procedures such as port needle insertion and replacement can also cause pain anxiety and changes in vital signs in patients Nowadays the use of non-pharmacological approaches as well as pharmacological methods is increasing in the management of symptoms such as anxiety before the invasive procedure and pain during application in patients receiving chemotherapy treatment These approaches improve the quality of life of patients and have a positive physiological effect One of these approaches is sujok therapy In Su Jok application The reflection points of the organs are on the hands and feet These points reflect to the body organ in that area and healing occurs By finding the right point energy flow is provided by massaging with appropriate applicators This research will be conducted to examine the effect of Sujok therapy on pain intensity and anxiety level in cancer patients who have undergone port catheter placement
The research will be conducted as a randomized experimental and placebo study with a pretest-posttest control group in the oncology service of Fethi Sekin City Hospital 90 30 experimental 30 control 30 placebo cancer patients who accept the research and meet the sample criteria of the study will be subjected to port catheter application Application areas for pain anxiety and stress before the port catheter to the patients in the experimental group will be determined with the help of a probe diagnostic stick and seeds will be added to these points approximately 45 minutes before the application and fixed with a patch For cancer patients in the placebo group the same procedure will be performed with seeds that have a neutral effect on the body No procedure will be applied to the patients in the control group Patient Information Form General Comfort Scale GAS Visual Analog Scale -Pain VAS-P Visual Analog Scale -Anxiety VAS-A and State-Trait Anxiety Scale were used as data collection tools DSKÖ scale will be used SPPS 210 Statistical Programme for Social Sciences package program will be used to evaluate the data obtained from the research It is thought that if the objectives of the study are achieved it will help reduce the level of pain and anxiety that may occur during and after port catheter application In addition it will contribute to the professional advancement of the project manager which is a career development project The positive results in this study will guide other interventions to increase the comfort level of cancer patients who will undergo port catheterization and reduce the level of pain and anxiety
