The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the "love glove" intervention, combined with the voices of family members and nurses, on vital signs in unconscious patients in the intensive care unit. The following items will be used to collect research data: Patient Information Form (Appendix I), Data Recording Form (Appendix II), MP3 player, external headphones and voice recorder, latex gloves, and thermometer.

Data Collection Tools:

Patient Identification Form : A form containing patients' sociodemographic characteristics and their Glasgow Coma Scale score prior to the start of the study Data Recording Form: A form used to record patients' level of consciousness and hemodynamic parameters before and after the auditory stimulation procedure.

Methods This study is a randomized controlled trial designed to determine the effect of applying a family member's voice, a nurse's voice, and the "love glove" on vital signs in unconscious patients admitted to the intensive care unit. Following approval from the ethics committee, the study is planned to be conducted with comatose patients admitted to the hospital's intensive care unit.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients in a coma who have been hospitalized in the intensive care unit for at least 48 hours, have a Glasgow Coma Scale score of 8 or lower,
• have no hearing problems,
• are hemodynamically stable,
• are either on mechanical ventilation or breathing spontaneously, have no history of head trauma,
• have received informed consent from their legal representative

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients with open wounds,
• those diagnosed with brain death,
• those whose sedative or analgesic doses were adjusted during the study,
• those with severe hemodynamic instability,
• patients with latex allergies

Although blinding of the investigators could not be achieved due to the nature of the interventions, the person assessing vital signs and the person conducting the statistical analysis will be blinded to the groups.
