简要总结
The purpose of the current study was to investigate the effect of the I COUGH care program following major abdominal surgery dyspnea, oxygen saturation, pulmonary function, mobility, and pain after major abdominal surgery (MAS), participants were subjected to the "I COUGH" care program designed to support their health condition and reduce complications. The study aimed to investigate a simple and inexpensive pulmonary care program that can be easily understood and remembered by patients, their families, and medical staff.
Ho: The I COUGH care program after MAS does not improves pulmonary functions, oxygen saturation, mobility and decrease dyspnea and pain after MAS.
H1: The I COUGH care program improves pulmonary functions, oxygen saturation mobility and decrease dyspnea and pain after MAS.
详细描述
A total of 60 adult individuals aged between 30 and 60 years (mean age of 39.9±8.82) comprising 13 males and 47 females underwent major abdominal surgery requiring general anesthesia and hospitalization were invited to study. Patients were randomly assigned to either the Control Group (CG, n=30) or the Experimental Group (EG, n=30) using the block randomization method. Patients in the EG participated in the I COUGH care program included flow-incentive spirometer, oral care, coughing and breathing exercises, patient, and family education, getting out of bed, and elevating the head of the bed by more than 30 degrees for 3 days post-surgery. The patients in the CG did not undergo any interventions. All participants were assessed in terms of vital signs as heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation. Moreover, dyspnea was assessed using the Modified Borg dyspnea Scale, pulmonary functions were evaluated using spirometry, mobility was assessed by Activity and Mobility Promotion scale and pain assessed Visual Analog Scale. Data were collected from all patients at baseline 10 h after the first day of surgery and on the day of discharge from the hospitals. The findings of the present study revealed that the I COUGH care program effectively improved pulmonary function and blood oxygenation, reduced the incidence of dyspnea, increased mobility, and decreased postoperative pain, with a statistically significant difference between the experimental and control groups (p<0.05).

入选标准
- •Volunteering to participate in the study.
- •Eligible patients are adults of both sexes between 30-60 years (Through the study, we are trying to reduce the variance and confounding factors that may arise from including patients who are less than 30 years old due to different stages of growth, physical abilities, hormonal levels, etc., or over 60 years old due to the prevalence of chronic diseases or diseases associated with aging).
- •Patients underwent elective abdominal surgery that required general anaesthesia and hospital stay e.g., Hernia repair, gall bladder removal, exploratory laparotomy, morbid obesity, ovarian cyst, Sigmoid diverticulitis, appendicitis, or other abdominal cavity procedures performed by laparoscopy and conventional laparotomy with a 5 cm or less incision above or extending above the umbilicus. (Incisions > 5cm may affect on possible results might be impacted in terms of: Increased risk of infection, risk of bleeding, pain, and discomfort during ambulation).

结局指标
主要结局
Systolic Blood pressure (SBP)
时间窗: 3 days of postoperatively
The minimum pressure recorded just prior to the next contraction.
Heart Rate (HR)
时间窗: 3 days of postoperatively
The number of heart beats per minute.
Pulmonary Function Test FEV
时间窗: 3 days of postoperatively
Noninvasive tests that show how well the lungs are working, measuring of FEV
Pulmonary Function Test FEV1/FVC
时间窗: 3 days of postoperatively
Noninvasive tests that show how well the lungs are working, measuring of FEV1/FVC
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
时间窗: 3 days of postoperatively
This measure is based on self-reported symptoms and is recorded with a single mark placed along a 10-cm line, which represents a continuum between "no pain" on the left end (0 cm) and "worst pain" on the right end. to determine the intensity of pain and its enhancement when coughing in the postoperative area.
Modified Borg Dyspnea Scale (MBDS)
时间窗: 3 days of postoperatively
A valid and reliable tool to measure the intensity of dyspnea. It is a categorical scale with ratio properties, rating from 0 to 10, 0 being not dyspneic at all and 10 being maximally dyspneic.
Pulmonary Function Test FVC
时间窗: 3 days of postoperatively
Noninvasive test that show how well the lungs are working, measuring of FVC
Pulmonary Function Test PEFR
时间窗: 3 days of postoperatively
Noninvasive tests that show how well the lungs are working, measuring of PEFR.
Diastolic Blood pressure (DBP)
时间窗: 3 days of postoperatively
The maximum blood pressure during contraction of the ventricles.
Respiratory Rate (RR)
时间窗: 3 days of postoperatively
The number of breaths they take per minute.
Oxygen Saturation (SPO2)
时间窗: 3 days of postoperatively
A pulse oximeter reading that indicates what percentage of your blood is saturated.
Activity and Mobility Promotion (AMP)
时间窗: 3 days of postoperatively
AMP is based on measuring increasing patient mobility during hospital stay. The initial goals of this program included mobilization of each patient 3 times per day, documentation of patient mobility levels on the AMP scale.
