Effect of Distraction Technique on Pain and Anxiety During Mammography

One of the non-medical interventions aimed at reducing sensitization is the cognitive-behavioral approach, in which the individual's attention is shifted from a painful stimulus to an external stimulus. This non-pharmacological approach can be adopted to alleviate stress and reduce cortisol concentrations in response to stress. There are a limited number of studies in the literature using distraction techniques during mammography. This study will examine the effects of distraction techniques on pain and anxiety during mammography.
