Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

It is important for healthcare professionals to provide care for gynecologic surgery patients using current evidence-based approaches. In this context, this study was planned to determine the effect of intraoral cold water spray application on thirst and thirst comfort in the postoperative period in patients undergoing gynecological surgery.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Hypotheses of the Research H01: Application of cold water spray into the mouth has no effect on thirst in patients undergoing gynecological surgery.

H02: Application of cold water spray into the mouth has no effect on thirst comfort in patients undergoing gynecological surgery.

H11: Application of cold water spray into the mouth has an effect on thirst in patients undergoing gynecological surgery.

H12: Application of cold water spray into the mouth has an effect on thirst comfort in patients undergoing gynecological surgery.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Experiment

In cold water applications, 50 cc bottles with plastic spray heads will be used. New materials will be used for each patient. Interventions will be carried out by the researcher and. Cold water kept in the refrigerator at +4 degrees will be placed in 50 cc spray bottles for the experimental group and will be sprayed orally to the patients 3 times an hour in the postoperative period. The spray will be applied to the patient's mouth, upper palate, top of the tongue, right inner cheek, and left inner cheek.

Patients will be given approximately 0.5 mL of water via spray in each application.
