The Effect of Sensory Isolation on Anxiety in Magnetic Resonance Imaging

The Effect of Ear Plugs and Eye Patch on Anxiety Level During Magnetic Resonance Imaging

About This Trial

The aim of this study is to determine whether the use of earplugs and eye masks in adults reduces anxiety during Manyetic Resonance Imaging. In addition, in order to evaluate the effect of earplugs and eye masks on the physiological symptoms of anxiety, the pulse rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and saturation value of adults will be measured before and after imaging. H0: Earplugs and eye masks have no effect on state anxiety levels. H1: Earplugs and eye masks have an effect on state anxiety levels. H2: Earplugs and eye masks have an effect on heart rate. H3: Earplugs and eye masks have an effect on respiratory rate. H4: Earplugs and eye masks have an effect on systolic blood pressure. H5: Earplugs and eye masks have an effect on diastolic blood pressure. H6: Earplugs and eye masks have an effect on saturation values.

Treatments Being Tested

DEVICE

Earplugs and eye mask

Participants in the experimental group will use earplugs and eye mask during MRI. The use of these devices aims to decrease anxiety levels caused by noise and the MRI procedure. Physiological parameters and axiety scores will be monitored throughout the study.
