Clinical Trial Summary

In this study, it is aimed to compare the effects of short-term mindfulness meditation based on Human Caring Theory and virtual reality on patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy.


Clinical Trial Description

Anxiety, fear and sleep disorders are frequently encountered conditions in preoperative patient evaluation. Common postoperative problems include pain, sleep disturbances, nausea and vomiting. When these problems are not dealt with effectively, patient comfort and satisfaction are adversely affected, recovery time after surgery and total hospital stay are prolonged, and the time allocated to nursing care increases. Today, it has gained great importance to try to manage these problems with pharmacological and non-pharmacological evidence-based approaches. In particular, nurses need to identify possible problems in both preoperative patient evaluation and postoperative patient follow-up and produce solutions for them. Although it is stated in studies that using easy, effective and safe non-invasive methods such as meditation and virtual reality can reduce the possibility of complications, increase the comfort level of patients, improve the quality of post-surgical recovery, and thus make the surgical process successful, there is no evidence to defend its effectiveness more clearly. more based studies are needed. In this study, it is aimed to compare the effects of short-term mindfulness meditation based on Human Caring Theory and virtual reality on patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy. ;
