Brief Summary:
The aim of this experimental study is to determine the effect of acupressure applied to intensive care patients on pain and physiological parameters blood pressure heart rate respiration and oxygen saturation
The main questions that the study aims to answer are
Acupressure applied to intensive care patients has no effect on pain Acupressure applied to intensive care patients has an effect on pain Acupressure applied to intensive care patients has no effect on physiological parameters
Acupressure applied to intensive care patients has an effect on physiological parameters
Participants will be included in the study after obtaining consent from patients who were treated in the intensive care unit who scored 9 and above on the glaskow coma scale by evaluating their consciousness status and had pain after evaluating their pain

Participants will be included in the study after obtaining consent from patients who were treated in the intensive care unit who scored 9 and above on the glaskow coma scale by evaluating their consciousness status and had pain after evaluating their pain
Detailed Description:
This study is planned to be conducted as a single-blind randomized placebo-controlled-experimental Patients for randomization will be divided into three groups as experimental control and plesobo without true acupressure
Before the patients in the intensive care unit are included in the study the state of consciousness with the Glasgow coma scale GCS and their pain will be evaluated with the pain scale Patients with a GCS of 9 and above and who have pain will be included in the study
Acu points to be used in the study HT7 P6 P7 Li4 Lv3 points Li4 and Lv3 are often associated with pain HT7 P6 and P7 points are especially related to the heart and pericardium
In the first session of the acupressure intervention to be applied to the experimental group the patients will be informed about how to perform the application In order to ensure the physical comfort of the patient the intervention times will be determined with two application intervals of 4 hours Physiological parameters and pain score of the experimental group will be recorded before the procedure then hands will be washed in line with the preparation for acupressure application and supine or semifowler position will be given according to the patients preference taking into account the privacy of the patient Pressure points will be determined using the patients own finger measurements
Before pressing a relaxing-relaxing patting motion will be applied to these points for 10 seconds Afterwards pressure will be applied to each point twice a day morning and evening with the thumb for 15 minutes with 5 seconds of pressure and 1 second of free pressure on each point It will take 15 minutes to press all points in total At the end of the application and at 15 minutes and 30 minutes after the application the participants physiological parameter data and pain score will be re-evaluated and recorded These data will be recorded 2 times a day morning and evening for 2 days
In the placebo group the preparations and forms applied to the experimental group will be applied in the same way but in accordance with the literature an area 15 cm away from the acupressure point that has no connection with the acupressure point will be selected and the application will be made in the form of light touch
In the control group pain and physiological parameters will be monitored and recorded twice a day morning and evening for 2 days without any application during the study except for the routine treatment given by the physician
