dc.description.abstractObjective: This study was conducted as an experimental trial to compare the effects of local cold application and autogenic relaxation exercise on pain in intramuscular (IM) injection application. Material and Methods: The research was carried out in Sivas Kılavuz Toki Family Health Center between 15 July and 15 November 2018. The population and sample of the study consisted of 150 individuals who received IM antibiotic (ceftriaxone) injection treatment between the specified dates and who met the inclusion criteria. The individuals in the sample group constituted both the control and intervention groups of the study. Approaches to reduce pain were performed by the investigator, and all injections were performed by the same clinical nurse in line with the injection administration protocol. “Personal Information Form” and “Visual Analogue Scale” were used for data collection. The data obtained from our study were evaluated in SPSS 22.0 for Windows program. All results were considered significant at p<0.05 and 95% confidence intervals. Friedman test was used to evaluate the data. Results: In the study, the mean pain score of the individuals after IM injection administered with the local cold application was 1.00 (0.00, 9.00) whereas their mean pain score following a standard injection administered based on the injection application protocol was 4.00 (1.00, 10.00). Also, individuals’ mean post-IM injection pain score was determined to be 3.00 (0.00, 9.00). Accordingly, a statistically significant difference was found between these mean scores (p=0.001). Conclusion: In conclusion, the local cold application was found to be a more effective method in relieving IM injection-related pain compared to the autogenic relaxation exercises and the standard application administered in accordance with the injection application protocol. Besides, the autogenic relaxation exercise was determined to relieve IM injection pain considerably more than the standard method. The local cold application, alternatively autogenic relaxation exercises are recommended to relieve pain occurring due to IM injection.
