Study Overview

Brief Summary

The primary aim of this study is to examine the effects of in-bed rotation and early mobilization training given before abdominal surgery on mobility, pain and comfort of patients after surgery. The secondary aim of the study is to examine the effect of mobilization training given before abdominal surgery on the sleep of patients after surgery.

Detailed Description

The primary aim of this clinical trial study is to examine the effects of early mobilization training given before abdominal surgery on mobility, pain and comfort of patients after surgery. The secondary aim of the study is to examine the effect of mobilization training given before abdominal surgery on the sleep of patients after surgery. Research Hypotheses are:

H11. There is a difference between the mobility scores of the patients who were given and not given pre-abdominal surgery training.

H12. There is a difference between the comfort scores of patients who were given and not given pre-abdominal surgery training.

H13. There is a difference between the sleep scores of the patients who were given and not given pre-abdominal surgery training.

First, the patient's mobility status in the preoperative period was evaluated with these scales. "Early Mobilization Training" will be given to the patients in the intervention group in the preoperative period. "Early Mobilization Training Material" to be prepared by the researcher will be used as training material. The training content will include information about the techniques and points to be considered about turning from one side to the other in the bed, sitting on the side of the bed, standing on the side of the bed and walking in the patient's room, and the time spent outside the bed on the day of surgery and the first and subsequent days after surgery.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Patient Mobility Scale

Time Frame: Change in Baseline Patient mobility score at two days

he level of pain and difficulty experienced during the 4 post-surgical activities (turning from one side of the bed to the other, sitting by the bed, standing up at the bedside, and walking in the patient's room) is evaluated using a 15 cm visual analog with verbal expressions listed at the bottom along the scale. The numerical value of the degree of pain and difficulty is determined by measuring the distance between the mark on the scale and "0" with a calibrated ruler. An increase in scores indicates an increase in pain and difficulty related to activity. The scores obtained give the patient's mobility score for each activity. The average score value is calculated. Scores for all activities are added together to obtain the global patient mobility score. The total score that can be obtained from the scale varies between 0-120.

Secondary Outcomes

  • pain level(Change in Baseline Patient pain score at two days)
  • comfort level in bed and while sitting(Change in Baseline comfort score at two days)
