About this trial
In the routine treatment procedure after coronary angiography (CAG), the patients remain in the supine position for a long time, which leads to decreased venous return and back pain. In addition, lying in the same position for 2 hours or more in the back area causes an increase in pressure. Increased pressure disrupts cell and tissue blood supply. The resulting pain may increase sympathetic stimulation. Therefore, sympathetic stimulation increases heart rate, blood pressure, myocardial oxygen consumption and cardiac workload. After the transfemoral coronary angiography (CAG) procedure, which is frequently applied to adults for both diagnosis and treatment, the back support to be applied to ensure that the vital signs (pulse, blood pressure, respiratory rate and blood oxygen saturation) of the patients remain stable and to increase their comfort level can prevent the deviation of the vital signs of the patients from normal and contribute to the treatment process with patient satisfaction.

Treatments tested in this trial
Back Support
Other interventionWhen the sandbag is to be left by the researcher together with the nurse caring for the patient, the patient will be placed in the left lateral position for a short time, a gel-filled orthopedic non-sweating viscose pillow will be placed in the patient's lumbar region and the patient will be placed in a supine position with the head supported.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Effect of back support use on pulse
Patients will be monitored for 6 hours in a supported supine position and Pulse will be recorded at 3-hour intervals.
Effect of back support use on blood pressure
Patients will be monitored for 6 hours in a supported supine position and blood pressure will be recorded at 3-hour intervals.m
Effect of back support use on respiratory rate
Patients will be monitored for 6 hours in a supported supine position and respiratory rate will be recorded at 3-hour intervals.m
Effect of back support use on partial oxygen saturation
Patients will be monitored for 6 hours in a supported supine position and partial oxygen saturation will be recorded at 3-hour intervals.m
Secondary outcomes
Effect of back support use on pain
The numbers on the pain scale (VAS) are ranked from 0 to 10 at equal intervals, with pain intensity of 1-3 indicating mild pain; 4-6 indicating moderate pain; and 7-10 indicating severe pain. Scoring was done at 0th hour (before back support), 3rd hour (during back support) and 6th hour (after back support).
