Exercise group
No treatment group
Each patient in the experimental group was given in-bed exercises for 15 minutes. An anxiety questionnaire was asked to both the experimental and control groups. It was expected that both the experimental and control group patients would be stable in the postoperative period. The same exercises were applied again for 15 minutes to the patients who were stable after the surgery. Then the patients were made to take steps around the bed. Pain levels were measured.
Apart from clinical protocols, no application was made in patient follow-up. Anxiety scale was filled and pain level was evaluated. Pain and anxiety scales were refilled within the same period without any application.
