Before the injection, the heart rate and blood pressure values of the patient were measured and recorded. The patient was placed in a prone position. The determined injection site was cleaned with a cotton pad with alcohol, with circular movements of 5 cm diameter from inside to outside, and the alcohol was allowed to dry. The protruding surface of the Shotblocker was placed in the area just before the injection, so that the needle entry point would not be contaminated. It was lightly pressed into the shotblocker with fingertips and the injection was performed. ShotBlocker has been removed after removing the needle. Visual comparison scale and injection satisfaction evaluation scale were applied to the patient in the first minute after the intramuscular injection. The obtained scores were recorded in the patient identification form. Pulse and blood pressure values were measured and recorded again. Finally, the patient introduction form was filled.

Before the injection, the heart rate and blood pressure values of the patient were measured and recorded. The patient was placed in a prone position and the appropriate left or right ventrogluteal region was determined. Pressure was applied to the determined injection area with the thumb of the active hand for 10 seconds. Immediately after the application of pressure was terminated, the injection site was cleaned with an alcohol cotton pad with circular movements of 5 cm diameter from inside to outside and the alcohol was allowed to dry. With a single movement at a 90 ° angle, the compression area was entered quickly and the injection was performed. Visual comparison scale and injection satisfaction evaluation scale were applied to the patient in the first minute after the intramuscular injection. The obtained scores were recorded in the patient identification form. Pulse and blood pressure values were measured and recorded again. Finally, the patient introduction form was filled.

Shotblocker is a small, flat, horseshoe-shaped plastic tool that can be used to reduce pain due to intramuscular injection, suitable for all age groups, without drug properties. It is used by keeping it on the skin surface during injection and has no side effects. Shotblocker has short, non-pointed blunt protrusions on one side that connect with the skin, there is a hole in the middle of the vehicle to expose the injection site. The protruding surface of the vehicle is placed in the area to be applied just before injection. The protrusions on the surface of the Shotblocker do not pierce the skin and provide a warning for the Door Control Theory, which is thought to exist regarding pain

It is a one-dimensional scale used in the measurement of pain. It was found that the sensitivity of the visual comparison scale was higher than other methods in the assessment of pain severity. The scale consists of a 100 mm long line. On one end there are the words "No Pain" and "Unbearable Pain" on the other. The patient is instructed to mark a point on the line that accurately reflects his or her pain. Between the onset of no pain and this point marked by the patient, it is measured and recorded.

The satisfaction level of the patients after injection was evaluated using a scale consisting of a 100 mm vertical line with "Very Satisfied" on one end and "Not Satisfied" on the other.
