Overview

Brief Summary

This study is planned as a randomized controlled experimental study to determine the effect of progressive relaxation exercises applied before mobilization on pain, anxiety and physiological parameters in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

Detailed Description

This study was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study to determine the effect of progressive relaxation exercises on pain, anxiety and physiological parameters before mobilization in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Ethics committee and institutional approval were obtained before starting the study. Patients were informed about the study and their verbal and written informed consent was obtained. The study will be conducted in a public hospital in Istanbul with 68 patients (experimental group = 34, control group = 34) who met the research criteria and underwent CABG surgery. The patients in the experimental group will be given progressive relaxation exercises twice at 6-hour intervals on postoperative day 1 and day 2. Patients in the control group will receive routine treatment and care. Physiological parameters, pain, and anxiety levels will be evaluated twice daily on postoperative days 1 and 2 in both groups.It was also stated that a smart wristband should be worn on the arms of the patients on postoperative days 1 and 2 to monitor the frequency of mobilization in both the experimental and control groups. In addition, the frequency of analgesic use will be monitored.

  • Ability to read and write in Turkish,
  • Analgesics given ≥4h before assessment,
  • Conscious and communicative,
  • Elective coronary artery bypass graft surgery planned,
  • Patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery for the first time were included in the study.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Diagnosed with a psychiatric or neurological disorder,

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Descriptive Characteristics Form

Time Frame: Preoperative

The first part includes questions about demographic characteristics such as gender, age, body mass index (height-weight), marital status, education level, income level and occupation, and the second part includes questions about other chronic diseases, previous surgery, previous stay in the intensive care unit, smoking and alcohol use.

Trait Anxiety Inventory

Time Frame: Preoperative

The Trait Anxiety Inventory is used to determine how the individual "usually" feels and the items of the scale are scored between 1-4 points (1=almost never, 2=sometimes, 3=very often, 4=almost always). There are 7 reversed statements in the trait anxiety subscale (items 21, 26, 27, 30, 33, 36 and 39).

Physiological parameters monitoring

Time Frame: Postoperative Day 1:(measured twice, 6-hour apart): Control: Pre-test, 30 min later, 15 min post-mobilization Experimental: Pre-test, 5 min post-PGE, 15 min post-mobilization. Postoperative Day 2: Both groups:Same measurements at 6-hour intervals, twice

Physiological parameters will be monitored.

State Anxiety Inventory

Time Frame: Postop Day 1:(measured twice, 6-hour apart): Control: Pre-test,30 minutes after,15 min post-mobilization.Experimental: Pre-test, 5 minutes after PGE, 15 min post-mobilization.Postoperative Day 2: Both groups:Same measurements at 6-hour intervals, twice

It is used to determine how the individual feels "right now" and the items of the scale are scored between 1-4 points (1=not at all, 2=somewhat, 3=very much, 4=completely).

Short Form McGill Pain Questionnaire

Time Frame: Postop1:Measured twice at 6h:Control:Pre-test, 30 min later, post-mobilization vas, 15 min post-mobilization. Experimental: Pre-test, 5 min post-PGE, post-mobilization vas, 15 min post-mobilization.Postop2: Both groups:Measured twice at 6-hour intervals

The scale consists of three parts in which the nature of pain, intensity of pain and overall pain intensity are evaluated.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Mobilization Schedule(Postoperative day 1 and 2)
  • Analgesia monitoring form(Postoperative day 1 and 2)
