Pain Clinical Trial

Official title: The Effect of Local Dry Heat Applıcatıon and Half Shower on The Development of Postoperative Urinary Retentıon and Paın ın Patıents Applıed With Spınal Anesthesıa

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Urinary retention is defined as the inability to empty the bladder spontaneously even though the bladder is full. Although urinary retention is seen in two forms as acute and chronic, acute urinary retention is defined by the International Continence Society (ICS) as the situation where the patient is unable to urinate, the bladder is felt when palpated by hand, and the bladder content contains at least 150 ml of urine with pain. Chronic bladder retention is defined by ICS as a painless condition that can be felt when the bladder is palpated manually after urinating, with at least 150 ml of urine in the bladder content.

aim:The aim of this study is to determine the Effect of Postoperative Local Dry Hot Application and Half Shower Application on the Development of Bladder Retention and Pain in Patients undergoing Spinal Anesthesia.

methot : The study was planned as a single-blind randomized controlled experimental study with a parallel group design. In the study, half shower and dry hot application will be applied to the patients in the experimental group. On the other hand, the control group patients will not receive any intervention other than general treatment and care. Dry hot application and half shower application method used in the study is a method used routinely in nursing care. In this study, the effectiveness of this method, which is used routinely, will be tried to be demonstrated. Randomization will be done by block randomization method. Patients meeting the inclusion criteria will be assigned to the groups after obtaining their informed consent to accept the study. Assignment to groups will be made at randomizer.org.

In the analysis made in the G* power 3.1.9.7 program, it was determined that a total of 60 people should be reached. After the calculated sample size, 20% more of the sample will be included in the study in order to avoid the attrition bias. Therefore, it is aimed to complete the study with 72 patients.

There will be two groups as control and experimental groups in the research. Warm half shower + dry hot application will be applied to the experimental group in the early postoperative period, and the other group will be the control group, whose routine care will be performed. ;
