NCT06201143

Brief Summary

No study has been found in which kinesiology taping, mobilization and breathing exercises were used regarding postoperative pain and postpartum comfort after cesarean section. This study aims to determine the effects of kinesiology taping, mobilization and breathing exercise on post-cesarean section pain and postpartum comfort. The study will be conducted with three groups, two intervention groups and one control group. It has been calculated that a minimum of 33 people in each group and 99 people in total will be sufficient. Anticipating the possibility of data loss in the study, it was planned to include 15% more patients (n = 114). Research Questions Is there a difference in terms of pain between the groups that received kinesiology taping, mobilization training and breathing exercises after cesarean section and those that did not? Is there a difference in postpartum comfort level between the groups that received kinesiology taping, mobilization training and breathing exercises after cesarean section and those that did not? Is there a difference in terms of pain between groups with and without post-cesarean mobilization training and breathing exercise? Is there a difference in postpartum comfort level between groups with and without post-cesarean mobilization training and breathing exercise?

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Visual Analog Skala

    "Participants obtained a response when they rated 0 or 10 performance states on a scale ranging from 0 (best outcome) to 10 (worst outcome).

    It will be filled in at the 10th, 24th, 48th and 72nd postoperative hours.

Study Arms (3)

BREATHING EXERCISE AND MOBILIZATION TRAINING GROUP

EXPERIMENTAL

Breathing exercise and mobilization training will be given in the patient\'s room during the preoperative period. Each training is planned to last approximately 20 minutes. Respiratory and mobilization training for patients during training techniques will be taught in practice, they will be shown how to mark the breathing exercise and mobilization tracking chart, and their questions will be answered. Individuals in this group will be given breathing exercise and mobilization training. VAS form will be filled in at the 10th, 24th, 48th and 72nd hours of postpartum. The patient\'s total mobilization time and the number of breathing exercises will be recorded. The postpartum comfort scale will be filled in at the 10th and 72nd hours.

Other: BREATHING EXERCISE AND MOBILIZATION TRAINING

KINESIOLOGICAL TAPING + BREATHING EXERCISE AND MOBILIZATION TRAINING GROUP

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in this group will be given kinesiology taping, breathing exercise and mobilization training. Kinesiological taping will be done at the 10th hour postoperatively. The VAS form will be filled out at the 10th, 24th, 48th and 72nd postoperative hour. The patient\'s total mobilization time and the number of breathing exercises will be recorded. The postpartum comfort scale will be filled in at the 10th and 72nd hours.

Other: BREATHING EXERCISE AND MOBILIZATION TRAININGOther: KINESIOLOGICAL TAPING + BREATHING EXERCISE AND MOBILIZATION TRAINING

CONTROL GROUP

NO INTERVENTION

No intervention will be made to individuals participating in this group. The VAS form will be filled out at the 10th, 24th, 48th and 72nd postoperative hour. The patient\'s total mobilization time and the number of breathing exercises will be recorded. The postpartum comfort scale will be filled in at the 10th and 72nd hours.

Interventions

After cesarean mobilization and breathing exercise training, the number of breathing exercises performed and the duration of mobilization will be recorded. Thus, the effectiveness of the training will be examined in detail.

BREATHING EXERCISE AND MOBILIZATION TRAINING GROUPKINESIOLOGICAL TAPING + BREATHING EXERCISE AND MOBILIZATION TRAINING GROUP

It will be the first study to use kinesiotaping, breathing exercise and mobilization training together.
