Investigation of the Effect of Progressive Relaxation Exercises on Pain and Bowel Movements in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare in health conditions. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does progressive relaxation exercises reduce pain in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy? Does progressive relaxation exercises increase bowel movements in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy?

The purpose of our experimentally randomized controlled study, which researchers conducted in order to study the effect of progressive relaxation exercises on pain and bowel movements in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy, is to reduce pain by intermittent application of progressive relaxation exercises to patients after surgery and to study the effect of exercise on bowel movements at an early stage. after the necessary permissions have been obtained july- september dates, Van Yüzüncü yıl university Dursun Odabaş medical center, in the general surgery clinic , patients who agree to participate in the study and meet the sample selection criteria will be included in the study. Patient presentation form, bowel movement monitoring form and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Pain Form will be used in the collection of research data.

the cholecystectomy group will be given exercise sessions and the result evaluations will be performed by a researcher who is blind to the group allocation

patients' postoperative pain and bowel movements will be evaluated by applying relaxation exercise intermittently

applying progressive relaxation exercise to the experimental group after postoperative cholecystectomy and observing the experimental-control groups

it is a scale with two ends named differently on the vertical or horizontal line with a length of 10 cm (0=no pain, 10=the most severe pain). Marking the point corresponding to the intensity of pain felt by the patient on this line

It is the form in which the intestinal sounds, gas extraction and defecation sounds of the patients are monitored by the researcher.

Inclusion Criteria: Who experienced laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery as planned for the first time Who volunteered to participate in the research 18 years and over Whose mental state is healthy Without vision, hearing and speech problems Patients who know Turkish were included in the study. Exclusion Criteria: Who have previously practiced progressive relaxation exercises Someone with communication problems Health problems that prevent the practice of progressive relaxation exercises (Epilepsy, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, fever, infection, etc. ) is Patients who were not willing to participate in the study were not included in the study.
