详细描述
The study will be conducted as a randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of postoperative abdominal massage on bowel movements in patients who underwent surgery after subarachnoid hemorrhage and are hospitalized in the neurosurgery intensive care unit. The sample of the study will consist of a total of 64 patients, 32 in the experimental group and 32 in the control group, hospitalized in the tertiary neurosurgery intensive care unit. Data collection tools are the "Descriptive Characteristics Form" and the "Patient Follow-up Form".The statistician will determine whether the patients who meet the sampling criteria will be assigned to the experimental or control group through randomization. The stratified randomization method will be used in the study. In this context, patients who meet the inclusion criteria from the start date of the study in the Neurosurgery Intensive Care Unit will be randomized by assigning them to the control group and abdominal massage groups, respectively. Patients will be assigned to the control and abdominal massage groups in this order until the sample size is reached. The CONSORT diagram will be used in the randomization of patients.

研究组 & 干预措施
Abdominal Massage Application Group
After explaining the purpose of the study to the relatives of patients in the abdominal massage group, the "Introductory Characteristics Form" will be filled out. Abdominal massage will be performed according to the Checklist at the 6th hour after surgery and at the same times in the morning and evening for the first 3 days post-surgery. Before and 15 minutes after the abdominal massage application, bowel sounds will be auscultated, abdominal circumference will be measured with a measuring tape, and abdominal tension will be observed and recorded in the patient follow-up form.
干预措施: Abdominal Massage Application (Other)
Control Group
After explaining the purpose of the study to the relatives of patients in the control group, the "Introductory Characteristics Form" will be filled out. At the same times as the experimental group, bowel sounds will be auscultated in the control group without any intervention, abdominal circumference will be measured with a measuring tape, and abdominal tension will be observed
