Filter by:Kinesiotaping is used as a physiotherapy method to reduce muscle pain. In this technique, kinesiotaping tapes are attached to the relevant parts of the body. Patients experience serious pain in rib fractures. Kinesiotaping technique can potentially reduce pain by contributing to external stabilization of the ribs. In this study, patients with isolated rib fractures will be divided into two groups. The first group will be treated with kinesiotaping technique and routine painkillers. The second group will receive routine painkiller treatment. Pain scores between both groups will be compared.
Cardiac surgery patients often undergo anxiousness and pain. Before surgery, anxiety is often caused by the idea of sternotomy, extracorporeal circulation, fear of post-operative pain, and even death. After surgery anxiety and pain can be the consequences of operative and peri-operative procedures. The investigators believe that reducing stress and pain by a relaxation therapy would lead to better stay in hospital and a better recovery after surgery. Music Care® relaxation technique consists into listening to an audio relaxing soundtrack chosen by the patient. This technique has already proven with several clinical studies its efficiency for reducing pain and anxiety in hospital. The research consists of comparing this technique to Peter Hess® sound massage for reducing pain and anxiety. The Peter Hess® sound massage is a holistic relaxation technique that uses sound vibrations generated by therapeutic singing bowls. Patients will be randomized in one of the two groups (Music Care® or Peter Hess®).
