Filter by:The goal is to evaluate the glycemic and hemodynamic stability in patients undergoing caesarean section in patients treated with maltodextrins two hours before the cesarean section
Cesarean Section (CS) is a common obstetric surgery that can be performed by both general or regional anaesthetic techniques. Hypotension is the most common complication of spinal anaesthesia, its incidence varying from 70% to 80 %, if severe, it can result in serious perinatal adverse outcomes, such as maternal nausea and vomiting, fetal acidosis and may be an important contributory factor for maternal death related to regional anaesthesia.
Aim:To examine the effect of "Paula Method Exercises" after cesarean section on the prevention of postoperative distention and pain due to distension. Method: The study was planned as a double-blind, randomized controlled experimental study. The study was carried out between November 2021 and February 2022 with women who had undergone cesarean section at Akdeniz University Hospital Gynecology and Obstetrics Clinic and agreed to participate in the study. The number of individuals to be sampled from the population was determined by the G Power analysis and 80 women were included in the sample. The data of the study were collected using the Introductory Information Form, the Postoperative Follow-up Form, and the McGill Pain Scale Form. The women in the intervention group were given training on how to do the Paula Method Exercises in the postoperative period in line with the "Paula Method Exercises Training Plan" by the researcher. Conclusion: It is predicted that the findings obtained from the data of the study will guide nursing care practices and new researches for the relief of gas and distension after cesarean section.
The purpose of this research is to study serious clinical problems from surgical pain and the use of oxycodone or other opioids in women having a Cesarean Delivery to improve the safety and efficacy of surgical pain relief. This research will ultimately improve the safety and efficacy of surgical pain relief with opioids by preoperative risk predictions and personalized care with the right dose of the right analgesic for each patient.
During the cesarean section; Hypothermia can be seen due to reasons such as anesthesia, premedication drugs, cold operating room environment, exposure of tissues and organs, and use of cold intravenous fluids. Hypothermia associated with cesarean may affect maternal and fetal health negatively. As a result of hypothermia, coagulopathy, infection, undesirable cardiac events that cause an increase in oxygen consumption, delay in postoperative recovery and wound healing, postoperative nausea and vomiting, chills and relief may be observed in the mother. Newborns born from hypothermic mothers have lower body temperature, pH and Apgar scores. It is important to evaluate all women in terms of risk factors in the preoperative period in the prevention of hypothermia and complications related to hypothermia. Prevention of hypothermia, which has negative effects on maternal and newborn health, is one of the risks that the nurse can address independently. Therefore, this research; In order to determine the effect of heating different body areas using compressed air heating technique during cesarean section on hypothermia, tremor, thermal comfort, postpartum comfort and maternal satisfaction, a parallel group was planned as a randomized controlled trial. The study is planned to be conducted in Hacettepe University Adult Hospital Gynecology and Obstetrics Department delivery room and obstetrics service. Research data, Introductory Information Form (Appendix 1), Obstetric and Postpartum Features Form (Appendix 2), Patient Monitoring Form (Appendix 3), Termal Comfort Perception Scale (Appendix 4), Shivering Level Diagnostic Form (Appendix 5), LATCH Breastfeeding The Diagnostic and Measurement Tool (Appendix 6) will be collected using the Visual Analogue Scale (Appendix 7) and the Thermal Comfort Scale that will be developed by the researchers. Pregnant women who meet the inclusion criteria will be included in the research. Women will be divided into 4 groups as the lower extremities are heated, the upper extremities are heated, the whole body is heated, and the control group. According to the group of women; It will be heated 30 minutes before surgery and 30 minutes after surgery with lower limb, upper limb or whole body. Women in the control group will not be heated.
We propose to explore the effects of Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) therapy in the pain management of postpartum women. A. Objectives - To determine if the addition of TENS therapy to the pain management of women post-cesarean section leads to less opioid medication use. - To evaluate the efficacy of TENS therapy as a means of alternative pain relief for women post-cesarean section with a history of opioid use. B. Hypotheses / Research Question(s) We hypothesize that patients that receive TENS therapy will report lower pain scores and request less opioid medication than the control group. We anticipate improved control in particular in the group of women with a history of opioid use. Additionally, we believe that the TENS therapy will show benefits in other postpartum outcomes including time to bowel movement, level of sedation, and time to out of bed. Overall, we anticipate that this pilot study will support the application of TENS therapy in postpartum pain management.
