This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This pilot study is testing whether inhalation aromatherapy — breathing in scents from aromatic plant extracts — can help reduce anxiety and pain during a wound debridement procedure for venous leg ulcers. Researchers will compare patients who receive this treatment alongside their standard care to patients who receive standard care alone. The study will also examine whether this treatment is practical and acceptable to use in a real clinic setting.
Wound debridement procedures can cause significant anxiety and pain for patients. Researchers want to see if inhalation aromatherapy might be a simple, non-drug way to help patients feel calmer and more comfortable during these procedures.

If you are selected for this study, you will either receive inhalation aromatherapy or standard care during your regular wound debridement appointment. If assigned to the aromatherapy group, you will inhale a personal inhalation stick infused with plant extracts for 5 minutes before the procedure and continue using it during the debridement. Before and after your procedure, you will answer questions about your anxiety levels and rate your pain using simple scales. You will also provide feedback on how acceptable and satisfying the treatment was.
