This study was conducted to investigate the effects of watching excerpts from classical Turkish comedy films on pain and comfort levels in liver transplant recipients during the postoperative period.
H1-0: Watching classical Turkish comedy films has no effect on postoperative pain in liver transplant recipients.
H1-1: Watching classical Turkish comedy films reduces postoperative pain in liver transplant recipients.
H2-0: Watching classical Turkish comedy films has no effect on postoperative comfort levels in liver transplant recipients.
H2-1: Watching classical Turkish comedy films increases postoperative comfort levels in liver transplant recipients.
Intervention Group A patient introduction form, numerical rating scale and general comfort scale were applied as a pre-test after transplantation surgery. After patients came to the clinic after transplantation surgery and their condition was stable, 10-minute Turkish comedy films prepared by the researchers were shown. After the intervention, a numerical rating scale and general comfort scale were applied as a post-test. While patients watched the comedy films, a quiet and calm environment was provided in the patient room.
Control Group A patient introduction form, numerical rating scale and general comfort scale were applied as a pre-test after transplantation surgery. No intervention was made to the control group patients outside of the clinical protocol. After patients came to the clinic after liver transplantation and their condition was stable, the numerical rating scale and general comfort scale were applied again.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| pain level | Patients' pain level will be measured with a "numerical rating scale". In the form, 0 points are evaluated as "no pain", 1-3 points as "mild pain", 4-6 points as "moderate pain", 7 and above points as "severe pain". | It will take approximately 5 minutes |
| comfort level | General Comfort Scale: The general comfort scale was created by taking as a guide the taxonomic structure that includes three levels and four dimensions that constitute the theoretical components of comfort and is used to determine comfort requirements and to evaluate the situation of reaching the expected increase in comfort with nursing interventions that provide comfort. The scale is a four-point/six-point Likert type and contains a total of 48 items. The four-point Likert type was preferred in the study due to its ease of use. The lowest score that can be obtained from the scale is 48, the highest score is 192. High scores indicate a high level of comfort. | It will take approximately 30 minutes |
