Two protocol-identified licensed nursing aides (LNA) will provide an unstructured simple touch intervention that requires no special training other than being oriented to rub patient's feet during the procedure. Data will be collected through patient-reported outcomes to determine if untrained touch has therapeutic results in managing a patient's pain and anxiety during a bone marrow biopsy procedure.
This study is analyzing the benefit of untrained touch provided during a bone marrow biopsy procedure as compared to performing the procedure without providing it.
