the Roles of Nurse and Patients About the First Intramuscular
Injection to a Person: An Empirical Research
AB  - Objective: This study was conducted to determine the
feelings and thoughts of nursing students in the roles of nurse and patient
about the first intramuscular injection (IMI) to a person. Material
and Methods: Pretest-posttest trial model was used in the study. The
sample of the study consisted of 80 volunteers from the students who
took the nursing fundamentals course. The sample group students performed
the IMI application according to the scenario prepared by the researchers
in the laboratory in which the students were in the roles of
both nurse and patient under the supervision of instructors. The data of
the study were collected before and after the procedure using a questionnaire
form. Descriptive statistical analyses and paired sample t-test
were used in the analysis of the data. Results: While in the patient role,
students’ mean scores of feelings such as anxiety, irritation, nervousness,
panicking, distress, scare, and embarrassment decreased after the
IMI compared to pretest values (p<0.05), students’ mean scores of feelings
such as being relieved, happiness, courage and calmness increased
compared to pretest values (p<0.05). In nurse role, students’ mean
scores of feelings such as irritation, distress, anxiety, and fear of complications
decreased after the IMI compared to pretest values (p<0.05),
while mean scores of feelings such as happiness, calmness, being relieved,
courage, excitement and self-confidence increased (p<0.05).
Conclusion: In both roles, the negative feelings and thoughts of the
students before the IMI decreased after the application, and their positive
feelings and thoughts increased. In line with the findings, it can be
said that the study made significant contributions to the perspectives of
the students as a professional member.
