Brief Summary

In this study, the researcher will examine the effects of preoperative mobilization training (video viewing with VR glasses and brochure methods) given to patients undergoing surgery in the lumbar region on pain, anxiety, fear of movement, fear of falling, and mobility levels in the postoperative period, using specific scales.

Conditions

Lumbar Disease; Lumbar Surgery

Keywords

Lumbar region; kinesiophobia; mobilization; nursing care and education; perioperative period

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale (TKS)

  The TSK is a 17-question scale developed to determine the level of injury/re-injury and fear-avoidance processes associated with activities. The scale is scored using a four-point Likert scale: "1 = Strongly Disagree," "2 = Disagree," "3 = Agree," and "4 = Strongly Agree." The minimum score on the scale is 17, while the maximum score is 68.

  eight months

• Patient Mobility Scale-HHO

  The Patient Mobility Scale consists of eight items and four subscales: turning from side to side in bed, sitting at the edge of the bed, standing at the edge of the bed, and walking in the patient's room. The level of pain and difficulty experienced is assessed using a 15-cm visual analog with verbal statements listed below the scale. The numerical value of the degree of pain and difficulty is determined by measuring the distance between the patient's mark on the scale and "0" using a calibrated ruler (no pain, some pain, moderate pain, a lot of pain, the worst pain I can imagine/very easy, easy, a little difficult, difficult, very difficult). The lowest and highest scores for each item range from 0 to 15, and the total scale score ranges from 0 to 120.
