NCT05127577 | Completed | Intraabdominal Pressure

Effect of Abdominal Massage on Excretory Activity and Pulmonary Function Tests in Patients After Surgery
Sponsor:

Mersin University

Information provided by (Responsible Party):

Canan KANAT

Brief Summary:

This study is aimed to determine the effect of abdominal massage on excretory activity and pulmonary function tests (PFT) in patients undergoing PKP.

Condition or disease

Intraabdominal Pressure

Intervention/treatment

Abdominal massage

Phase

Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

Methods: The research will be carried out with 78 patients who underwent partial hip replacement. Patients were assigned to study (abdominal massage) and control groups by randomization. Abdominal massage will be applied to the patients at least 30 minutes after the morning and evening meals (08:30 in the morning, 20:30 in the evening) for 15 minutes, similar to the literature. Patients' data will be collected 15 minutes before and after the application of abdominal massage. Within the scope of the patient's data, information on pulmonary function test values, intra-abdominal pressure value and excretory activities will be collected. Abdominal massage will start in the evening of the day the patient is transferred to the clinic (20:30), and will be terminated when the patient defecates. No treatment will be applied to the patients in the control group. The data recorded before and after the abdominal massage in the study group will be recorded in the Excretory Activity Form and the Pulmonary Function Test Form as a result of the measurements made at the same time in the control group.}}

Study Type : Interventional
Estimated Enrollment : 78 participants
Masking : Single
Masking Description : According to the randomization table, the information showing the patients included in the research sample is assigned to the A and B groups will be put in an opaque envelope. This envelope will be kept by the coordinator researcher (GAU) and when the researcher (CK) goes to the patient for application, after filling out the "Informed Voluntary Consent Form", he will open the envelope and learn which group is in which group. Due to the nature of the study, patients and the researcher (CK) will not be blinded, since abdominal massage will be applied only to the patients included in the study. When the research is completed, the data will be transferred to the computer environment by a statistician who does not know the A and B groups, and the data will be analyzed by a statistician independent of the research and the findings will be reported. Thus, the data analysis and statistics phase will be blind to group assignment.
