Clinical Trial Description

Cesarean section surgery is an attempt to become mandatory and applied in cases where vaginal delivery is dangerous for the mother and fetus. One of the most common problems that women experience in the process after cesarean section is pain. This pain experienced for various reasons such as incision site pain, headache and pain caused by uterine contractions negatively affects the comfort of the woman in the postpartum period. In addition to pain, especially after cesarean section, the woman cannot be mobilized, the presence of a urinary catheter, the negative effects caused by anesthesia cause the mother to be unable to meet her own self-care needs and perform life activities, which disrupts the comfort of the woman As a result of the study in which Çankaya evaluated the comfort of mothers who gave birth by cesarean section, it was found that 78% of mothers have pain at the incision site and this negatively affects maternal comfort The pain that cannot be controlled causes a limitation in activities, respiratory, circulatory and digestive system problems in the postoperative period and prolongs the recovery period. Therefore, the woman's pain should be managed and aimed at minimizing it. In this context, when looking at the literature, it is noticeable that there are various methods of dealing with pain after cesarean section. Pharmacological treatment options are preferred in the management of pain after cesarean section due to their ability to reduce and treat pain in a shorter period of time. After cesarean section, more often non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or paracetamol-derived drugs are used. Non-pharmacological methods should also be used in pain management to support pharmacological methods and minimize the use of analgesics Some non-pharmacological methods used can be listed as follows; aromatherapy, massage hand/foot massage, listening to music, progressive relaxation exercises, acupuncture, hot and cold applications. A limited number of studies on hot application have been found in the literature. Based on these results, this study is planned to examine the effects of hot water application on pain comfort and life signs. ;
