Brief Summary

This study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study to determine the effect of progressive muscle relaxation exercises on pain and disability in patients undergoing spinal surgery.

Conditions

Spinal Stenosis Lumbar

Keywords

Lumbar Surgery; Progressive muscle relaxation; Pain

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Progressive Muscle Relaxation Exercises

  Visual Analogue Scale scores will decrease after progressive muscle relaxation exercises. The highest score that can be obtained from the visual analog scale is 10 and the lowest 0. As the higher score is obtained, the patient's pain will increase, and the result is evaluated as bad.

  12 months

• Progressive Muscle Relaxation Exercises

  Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire will decrease after progressive muscle relaxation exercises.There will be a total score between 0-24. A high score indicates severe disability.

  12 months

Study Arms (2)

Exercises Group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients will be taught Progressive Muscle Relaxation Exercises before the surgery and will be applied twice a week for 2 months after the surgery.

Other: Progressive Muscle Relaxation Exercises

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

Patients in the control group will receive standard care that includes all medical and non-medical treatments in the hospital.

Interventions

Progressive Muscle Relaxation Exercises OTHER

It is among the relaxation techniques that require the active participation of the individual.
