About this trial
Burn injuries are traumatic conditions that seriously affect individuals' quality of life, both physically and psychologically. Second-degree burns, in particular, affect the superficial and/or deep layers of the dermis, causing intense pain and extensive tissue damage. Pain in burn patients is not only physical; it combines with emotional stress, fear, and uncertainty to increase anxiety levels.
This study is a parallel group-randomised controlled trial designed to evaluate the effects of the Laughie exercise, administered prior to dressing changes in individuals diagnosed with second-degree burns, on post-dressing pain anxiety levels and pain intensity.
