1. To evaluate the effect of shotblocker on pain during venipuncture in adult blood donors. 2. To evaluate the effect of cold spray on pain during venipuncture in adult blood donors. 3. To Compare between shotblocker and cold spray effect on pain during venipuncture in adult blood donors. 4. To find out the association between demographics and level of pain in both shot blocker and cold spray on pain during venipuncture in adult blood donors.
Design
Randomized control trial (one control group and two study groups) design study
Settings and conduct
This study was conducted at the main blood bank in Baquba Teaching Hospital in Diyala Governorate in Iraq.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Subjects eligible for inclusion whom male and female adult blood donors (18 years and above), Volunteering to participate in the study and giving a written consent form, Read and write, and had no sign of (pain, hematoma, necrosis, scar, incision or infection) on the skin around the venipuncture site, and had no analgesic drug for the last six hours. They were excluded if they refused participation, significantly impaired vision, altered mental state, suffered from skin disease associated with cold intolerance (e.g. Raynaud’s disease), had vision and hearing problems, sensory-motor deficit, diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, or neuropathy, Wound, burn, scar tissue, etc. on the skin around the venipuncture site.
Intervention groups
Interventional group: Before administration, participants will be given the questionnaire to fill out in order to assess their pain. Then, each participant in intervention groups will be applied a shotblocker and cold spray. Immediately after administering instruments (shotblocker and cold spray ), the questionnaire will be given again to mark points in a visual analog scale to assess their venipuncture pain.

Health conditions studied

Description of health condition studied
Blood donation required venipuncture performed by inserting a large bore needle (16G or 18G) into a peripheral vein, usually within the antecubital fossa (Myers & Collins ,2022), also Blood donation is one of the most frequent reasons for venipuncture, which is also one of the most frequent invasive medical procedures in general (Simundic et al.,2015) .Venepuncture-related complications can include the pain, development of haematomas, nerve damage, arterial puncture, petechiae, allergies, phobia, infections, fainting , haemorrhaging, and thromboembolism (Buowari,2013). Tee, (2015) stated that venipuncture often performed by nurses, which cause pain to patients. also, other study reported blood donors who undergo venipuncture frequently feel stress and extreme pain (Ialongo & Bernardini, 2016). Pain is an uncomfortable emotion and a physical sensation that might indicate either real or potential tissue injury and Pain not only results from disease itself but may also be derived from invasive diagnosis and treatment interventions (Aydede ,2019). Pain caused by venipuncture become problematic (Shafii et al.,2019), causing high levels of anxiety (McMurtry et al.,2015) and emotional consequences including needle-related phobia (Sokolowski et al.,2010). Therefore, it is essential to control pain throughout medical procedure (Marcy et al., 2017), and it is the primary responsibility of nurses to use the most effective methods to manage pain (Blinderman,2016).
