Arm Description

Meditation will be applied to the patients in the meditation group for 10 minutes in the evening and morning of the operation in the preoperative period, and at the 2nd and 12th hours in the postoperative period. In the preoperative period, the patients were evaluated by using the Descriptive Characteristics Form, the Surgery-Specific Anxiety Scale, the Surgical Fear Scale, the Richard Campbell Sleep Scale, and the Recovery Quality-15 Scale and in the postoperative period, the patients were evaluated by using the Richard Campbell Sleep Scale, Nausea Numerical Scale, Numerical Rating Scale, Recovery Quality-15 Scale and Watson Caritas Patient Score. In addition, data will be collected using the Patient Follow-up Form (Experimental Group) both before and after the interventions.

Virtual reality will be applied to the patients in the virtual reality group for 10 minutes in the evening and morning of the operation in the preoperative period, and at the 2nd and 12th hours in the postoperative period. In the preoperative period, the patients were evaluated by using the Descriptive Characteristics Form, the Surgery-Specific Anxiety Scale, the Surgical Fear Scale, the Richard Campbell Sleep Scale, and the Recovery Quality-15 Scale and in the postoperative period, the patients were evaluated by using the Richard Campbell Sleep Scale, Nausea Numerical Scale, Numerical Rating Scale, and Recovery Quality-15 Scale. In addition, data will be collected using the Patient Follow-up Form (Experimental Group) both before and after the interventions.

The patients in the control group will not undergo any intervention in the pre- and postoperative period and will receive the routine nursing care of the clinic. In the preoperative period, the patients were evaluated by using the Descriptive Characteristics Form, the Surgery-Specific Anxiety Scale, the Surgical Fear Scale, the Richard Campbell Sleep Scale, and the Recovery Quality-15 Scale and in the postoperative period, the patients were evaluated by using the Richard Campbell Sleep Scale, Nausea Numerical Scale, Numerical Rating Scale, and Recovery Quality-15 Scale. In addition, data will be collected by using the Patient Follow-up Form (Control Group) in the determined periods after the surgery in parallel with the experimental groups.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
In this study, it is aimed to compare the effects of short-term mindfulness meditation based on Human Caring Theory and virtual reality on patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Detailed Description
Anxiety, fear and sleep disorders are frequently encountered conditions in preoperative patient evaluation. Common postoperative problems include pain, sleep disturbances, nausea and vomiting. When these problems are not dealt with effectively, patient comfort and satisfaction are adversely affected, recovery time after surgery and total hospital stay are prolonged, and the time allocated to nursing care increases. Today, it has gained great importance to try to manage these problems with pharmacological and non-pharmacological evidence-based approaches. In particular, nurses need to identify possible problems in both preoperative patient evaluation and postoperative patient follow-up and produce solutions for them. Although it is stated in studies that using easy, effective and safe non-invasive methods such as meditation and virtual reality can reduce the possibility of complications, increase the comfort level of patients, improve the quality of post-surgical recovery, and thus make the surgical process successful, there is no evidence to defend its effectiveness more clearly. more based studies are needed. In this study, it is aimed to compare the effects of short-term mindfulness meditation based on Human Caring Theory and virtual reality on patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
