Clinical Trial Summary

One of the most common problems in patients in the postoperative period is pain and the associated deterioration in sleep quality. Deterioration in sleep quality can cause pain to be perceived more severely. It is recommended to use non-pharmacological approaches as well as pharmacological interventions in the management of these problems. This study was planned to determine the effect of hot foot bath and lavender essential oil foot bath application on postoperative sleep quality and pain in patients undergoing abdominal surgery.


Clinical Trial Description

It was planned as a randomized controlled trial. The population of the study consisted of patients who underwent abdominal surgery in the General Surgery Service of a private health group hospital in Istanbul. Patients who met the inclusion criteria constituted the sample. "Visual Comparison Scale-VAS" and "Richard-Campbell Sleep Scale" were used during data collection. Visual Comparison Scale-VAS: It is a scale that starts with no pain and ends with unbearable. The VAS scale consists of a 10 cm long line. At one end of the line, "no pain" signals what may be at the other end of the "unbearable pain." The patient is asked to point to a point that indicates the current level of pain. Richard-Campbell Sleep Scale: This scale consists of 6 items that evaluate the depth of night sleep, the time to fall asleep, the frequency of awakening, the time to stay awake when awakened, the quality of sleep and the noise level of the environment. Each item is evaluated on a chart between 0 and 100 using the visual analog scale technique. According to the scale, the score in the range of "0-25" indicates very bad sleep, and the score in the range of "76-100" indicates very good sleep. Foot bath was started as of the 24th hour after the operation. During the 3 days they were hospitalized, they had a foot bath evening before going to sleep (experimental group). Routine service applications were performed in the control group. In order to ensure the comfort of the experimental and control group patients and to minimize their exposure to the external environment, the patient rooms were kept clean, at a suitable temperature (23-25 degrees) and quiet. ;
