Material and Methods: This blinded- randomized- controlled clinical trial was carried out on 90 patients divided into two groups of intervention and control. the patients of intervention group were asked to inhale two drops of lavender essential oil and those of control group two drops of distilled water poured on a gauze , for 20 minutes. In addition to measuring patients’ anxiety level by Spielberger questionnaire, we recorded their vital signs. Using SPSS 16 software, the data was described via mean, standard deviation and percent, and analyzed by using independent t-test, paired t-test, Chi Square and Covariance (0.05).
Results: The mean age of intervention group was 50.49 ± 10.92 and control group was 50.13 ± 9.20. Anxiety score in intervention group was significantly decreased from 56.37±5.6 to 54.73±5.42 and in control group meaningfully reduced from 55.18±7.35 to 54.0±7.22 (p<0.05). The mean anxiety score in the intervention group was significantly higher than that of control group (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Because anxiety reduction in aromatherapy group was more than control group it can be concluded that aromatherapy with lavender essential oil have significant effect in reducing anxiety and therefore can be used in clinical situations.

Abstract
Background and Objective: Coma due to brain injury is an important complication resulting in unconsciousness and reducing the capacity of responding to the environment. This study aimed at examining the effect of organized voice auditory stimulation, which was performed by a nurse, on the length of coma in the patients suffering from head injury.
Material and Methods: This clinical-trial study was applied on 40 patients in the critical care unit of Panje Azar Hospital. The patients were randomly recruited to one of the two groups (each group 20 patients). The intervention group was stimulated by the voice of a male nurse. Hearing stimulation was conducted in the morning and night shift about 15 minutes each time for 10 days. The patient consciousness was measured by GCS scale and analyzed by ANOVA and t-test (P<0.05), using SPSS Soft ware.
Results: The average age of intervention and control group was 28.20 ± 11.49 and 27.8 ± 13.22, respectively. Before stimulation in the first day, there is no significant difference between the GCS of intervention group (5.95 ±0.68) and that of control (5.95 ± 0.64). The results indicate that the intervention group has become consciousness from the 5th day (GCS of 8.25 ± 1.19) and control group (GCS of 7.80 ± 1.96) from the 10th day.
Conclusion: The study show that the auditory stimulation in the intervention group compared to control group gives rise to the improvement of the level of consciousness in comatose patients .

Abstract
Background: Hearing loss is a common condition during the aging process. Improving hearing loss through hearing aids may impact satisfaction and the quality of life of elderly individuals. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the association between Hearing Aid Use Satisfaction (HAUS) and the quality of life among the elderly with hearing loss in Gorgan, Iran.
Methods: This study is a cross-sectional investigation conducted in 2019 at the health insurance office in Gorgan, Iran. The study included elderly individuals aged over 60 who were fitted with hearing aids. Sixty subjects meeting the inclusion criteria were conveniently selected. The assessment tools included a demographics checklist, the Satisfaction with Amplification in Daily Life (SADL) scale, and the Short Form Health Survey (SF-12). Data analysis was performed using SPSS-18 and involved the Chi-squared test, independent t-test, Mann-Whitney U, and Spearman correlation coefficient. A significance level of P < 0.05 was considered.
Results: The participants' mean age was 76.85±8.16, falling within the age range of 75-89. The average satisfaction score for the use of the HAUS was 63.90±11.07. A significant statistical association was observed between HAUS and economic status (P=0.03), the type of hearing aid used (P=0.024), and the level of daily hearing aid usage (P=0.0001). With an increase in the number of hours of hearing aid use, the mean satisfaction score also showed an increase. The mean score for the quality of life among the elderly individuals was 32.77±2.02, and no correlation was observed between satisfaction with HA use and quality of life (r=0.068, P=0.511).
Conclusion: The findings suggest that hearing aid devices can enhance the satisfaction and quality of life of elderly individuals, thereby increasing their engagement in daily activities.
