No_intervention: Control group
Patients in this group will be subjected to routine monitoring, which is included in the hospital procedure, every 30 minutes. Routine monitoring includes ensuring physical well-being, taking pulse, feeding, giving water, and meeting toilet needs. Records are kept by the nurse regarding these practices. During monitoring every 30 minutes, the patient's peripheral capillary refill time, skin integrity, skin color, skin temperature, and pain will be evaluated and recorded on the Patient Information and Restriction Monitoring Form.
Experimental: Experimental group
* Before applying hand massage, the individual/patient's hand or arm will be evaluated for thrombus, phlebitis, ecchymosis, hematoma, deterioration in skin integrity and change in skin color in order to determine whether there is a risk.~* Hand massage application is a massage performed with western technique that includes five basic classical massage manipulations including efflorescence, petrissage, friction, tapotment and vibration.~* Massage should be performed in a way that creates light pressure on the individual, then the applied pressure should be gradually increased.
