About this study

Official title: The Effect of Pressurized Cold Application on Pain Level in Patients Wıth Total Knee Prosthesis Surgery

This study was conducted to examine the effects of pressurized cold applicatıon for patients total knee prosthesis surgery.

Read the detailed description

The study was conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study in order to determine the effect of pressurized cold application applied after total knee replacement surgery on the level of pain and satisfaction.This study was conducted in 52 patients who applied to Pamukkale University Hospitals Orthopedics and Traumatology Clinic between July 2019 and February 2020, who met the inclusion criteria and accepted to participate in the study. The patients were divided into 26 in the control group (cold gel) and 26 in the study group (compressed cold therapy bandage) using a simple randomization method. The patients in the control group received 9 cold applications, in the form of 20 minutes of application and 40 minutes of rest after surgery. The patients in the study group were applied 9 cold applications with 30 mmHg pressure for 20 minutes and 40 minutes of rest.

Control GroupNo interventionThe patients in the control group were applied 9 times of cold gel in the form of 20 minutes of application and 40 minutes of rest after surgery.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The change in pain level of total knee prothesis patients at 9 cold applicatiıon with Visual Analog Scale.

    This scale was used horizontally before and after 9 cold applications to measure the pain level of the patients.

    Measured: According to the fast track protocol, a total of 9 cold applications were applied to the patients who stayed in the service for an average of 1 day after the operation, except during sleep and physical therapy times.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The level of satisfaction of patients with the type of cold application applied

    Satisfaction of the patients with the type of cold application applied was evaluated with a 4-point Likert question before discharge. (Very Satisfied, Satisfied, Neutral, Dissatisfied)

    Measured: ,The patient was asked once before discharge (about 1 day after surgery), the level of satisfaction with the type of cold application.
