These few studies in the literature have focused especially on the effects of thyme oil on Covid-19 symptoms. This work; It will be done to evaluate the effect of aromatherapy with thyme oil on Covid-19 symptoms, vital signs and hemodynamic parameters in Covid-19 patients.

This work; It will be done to evaluate the effect of aromatherapy with thyme oil on Covid-19 symptoms, vital signs and hemodynamic parameters in Covid-19 patients. There is no study in the literature investigating the effects of all these variables. The study will be carried out as a randomized controlled experimental study. It will be carried out in Batman Training and Research Hospital Covid-19 service between January 2022 and December 2022. The sample of the study will consist of a total of 140 patients (experimental group = 70 control group = 70) randomized to the experimental and control groups.
In data collection, "Demographic Characteristics Form", "Covid-19 Symptom Form", "Hemodynamic parameters and vital signs follow-up form" and "Visual Comparison Scale (VAS)" will be used. Kolmogorov Smirnov normality test will be used for normal distribution in the analysis of the data. Using ANOVA, ANCOVA, student t test and paired t test in the analysis of normally distributed data; Fridman test, Kruskal Wallis and Man Withney U test are planned to be used in the analysis of data that is not normally distributed.
