Clinical Trial Summary

It is known that maintaining and maintaining normal body temperature in women after cesarean section facilitates the mother's adaptation to the postpartum period. One of the important problems after cesarean section is hypothermia. Therefore, various methods are used to maintain normal body temperature. One of these methods is the use of electric blankets. This study will investigate the effect of using electric blankets after cesarean section on postpartum comfort, pain, milk quantity and breastfeeding success.


Clinical Trial Description

After cesarean section, mothers face more problems than mothers who give birth normally. Post-cesarean pain, breastfeeding problems, anesthesia-related side effects, and postpartum complications are important reasons affecting maternal comfort. After a cesarean section, mothers may experience hypothermia due to the low temperature in the operating room, the incision, and the effects of spinal/general anesthesia. In mothers who develop hypothermia after cesarean section, undesirable results may occur in physiological parameters such as fever, pulse, blood pressure, pain, and intestinal motility. Therefore, body temperature, blood pressure, pulse, saturation, pain, time to first flatus and defecation are the main factors that determine patient comfort after surgery. In the postoperative period, both pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment methods are used to reduce pain, increase the amount of milk, and increase intestinal motility. It is stated in the literature that non-pharmacological methods such as early mobilization, chewing gum, early oral hydration (consumption of water, warm water, tea, coffee), and hot application are effective in increasing intestinal motility. Using active and passive heating methods to prevent hypothermia after cesarean section are practices that affect postpartum comfort. With this study, it is expected that heating with an electric blanket will prevent hypothermia, increase postpartum comfort, reduce pain, and increase breastfeeding success by affecting the amount of milk. ;
