简要总结
The purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the effect of using motivational cards on pain and step counts in patients who underwent open prostate surgery due to benign prostatic hyperplasia.The main hypotheses are:
H1: Patients who use motivation cards during mobilization after open prostate surgery have lower pain levels than those who do not. H2: Patients who used motivation cards for mobilization after open prostate surgery had a higher number of steps than those who did not use them. After the surgery, patients were asked to walk with a pedometer. A mobilization motivation card was used in the study group.
详细描述
The group distribution of the patients was made using the Random Allocation Software (Version 2.0.0) program and the patients were divided into two groups: the study group and the control group.
The patients were visited by the researcher in their rooms on the morning of the day they were scheduled for surgery, and the purpose of the study was explained to the patients. Verbal and written consent was obtained from those who agreed to participate in the study, and it was explained to the patients that they would be visited again at their bedsides the day after surgery.
The Visual Pain Scale was created to assess the severity of pain. A score of '0' at the left end of the line indicates no pain, and a score of '10' at the right end indicates unbearable pain. In this study, patients were asked to mark the severity of the pain they were experiencing on a scale. The research nurse visited the patient in the service rooms before they were transferred to the operating room to make the first assessment in the study group, and the purpose of the study was explained to the patient. Patient introduction form, pedometer and mobilization motivation card were introduced to the patient. The patient was informed that they would be visited at 10:00 a.m. on the first day after the surgery to mobilize the patient. On the morning of the first day after surgery, the patient's pain status was determined with the Visual Pain Scale. The patient's vital signs were checked and the pedometer was placed on the lumbar region. The patient was mobilized according to the mobilization stage. The number of steps after the first mobilization was recorded on the mobilization motivation card and the card was hung at the bedside. The researcher nurse was informed that he would be visited again in 1 hour and these stages were repeated 3 times.
In the control group, the first evaluation was made by the researcher nurse. Patient introduction form, pedometer were introduced to the patient. On the morning of the first day after surgery, the patient's pain status was determined with the Visual Pain Scale. The patient's vital signs were checked and the pedometer was placed on the lumbar region. The patient was mobilized according to the mobilization stage. The number of steps after the first mobilization was recorded on the mobilization motivation card but was not given to the patient. The researcher nurse informed that he would be visited again in 1 hour and these stages were repeated 3 times.

研究组 & 干预措施
Experimental: Experimental (with Card)
In this procedure, patients used a pedometer and mobilization motivation card during their mobilization on the first postoperative day.
干预措施: Mobilization Motivation Card (Behavioral)
No Intervention: Standard (No Card)
In this procedure, patients used a pedometer during their mobilization on the first postoperative day. They did not use a mobilization motivation card.
结局指标
主要结局
Number of steps after surgery
时间窗: 12 months
Before mobilization, the number of steps taken will be tracked via a pedometer placed on the patient's waist, and after mobilization, the pedometer will be taken back from the patient. The number of steps taken will be recorded by the nurse.
次要结局
- Pain before and after mobilization(12 months)
