Effect of Fan Application in Preventing Ticagrelor-Associated Dyspnea
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
STANDART CARE: Routine ward care including semi-Fowler position and breathing exercises. Standard institutional care will be applied. Presence, number, and severity of dyspnea attacks will be recorded during the first 2 hours after ticagrelor administration.
STANDART CARE & FAN THERAPY: In addition to standard care, patients will undergo hand fanning for 5 minutes at 30, 60, and 120 minutes after ticagrelor administration. The fan will be directed toward the patient's face from a distance of \~15 cm. Dyspnea severity and number of episodes will be recorded during this period.
