Brief Summary

postoperative pain; It is acute pain that begins with surgical trauma and decreases during tissue healing. Although it is predictable and treatable, it still seems to be an important problem today. Many researchers in the literature have reported that approximately 50-70% of patients receive inadequate pain treatment after surgery, and many patients complain of moderate or severe pain. Poor control of postoperative pain may cause deep venous thrombosis and delayed wound healing, increased hospital stay, and delayed return to daily life activities. This may negatively affect the quality of life and recovery of patients Therefore, there is a need for methods that increase pain control, such as non-pharmacological methods, to accelerate postoperative recovery. Nurses in postoperative pain management; they help control pain with non-pharmacological methods such as breathing exercises, positioning, relaxation techniques, massage, listening to music, hot application, cold application, and distraction.
