Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Design: It will be conducted as a randomized controlled experimental study. Method: It is a randomized controlled experimental study: This randomized controlled clinical trial will be conducted between May and December 2024 in accordance with the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials. A total of 60 women will be randomly assigned to the intervention group (n=30) or the control group (n=30). Participants in the intervention group will receive 100 mg caffeine in coffee at 6 and 12 hours after surgery in addition to routine postoperative care. The control group will receive only routine postoperative care. Pain will be assessed using Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and bowel activity will be monitored by time to first defecation, gas passage and bowel sounds.
