Investigation of the Effects of Pre-Angiography Music Interview and Aromatherapy Application on Pain, Anxiety, Fear, and Comfort Levels in Cardiology Patients

This study was conducted to examine the effects of non-pharmacological interventions applied before coronary angiography in cardiology patients. Specifically, the study focused on the use of music listening and lavender oil inhalation and their potential impact on patients\' psychological and physical states prior to the procedure. The research was designed as a randomized controlled experimental study, in which participants were assigned to intervention and control groups for comparison. Within the scope of the study, pain, anxiety, fear, and comfort levels were evaluated using standardized measurement tools, and data were collected through pre- and post-intervention assessments. The study emphasizes the importance of integrating complementary methods into clinical practice within a holistic nursing care approach. Overall, the study aims to provide scientific evidence regarding the applicability of music therapy and aromatherapy as supportive, non-pharmacological interventions in the pre-angiography care of cardiology patients.
