Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
No Intervention
In the preoperative period, patients in the control group completed the Patient Demographic Information Form and the Trait Anxiety Inventory. Patients were preoperatively informed about wearing a smart bracelet on postoperative days 1 and 2 to track step count and walking distance. Physiological parameters, state anxiety, and pain levels (Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire) were evaluated at pre-test, 30 minutes later, and 15 minutes after mobilization. Additionally, pain intensity was assessed immediately after mobilization. On postoperative days 1 and 2, all assessments were conducted twice daily. The frequency of analgesic administration was also monitored.
No interventions assigned to this group
Experimental
In the preoperative period, patients completed the Patient Demographic Information Form and the Trait Anxiety Inventory. Patients were preoperatively informed about wearing a smart bracelet on postoperative days 1 and 2 to track step count and walking distance. Furthermore, patients in the intervention group received video-assisted training on diaphragmatic breathing and progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) exercises.
In the intervention group, PMR was performed twice a day on postoperative days 1 and 2. Physiological parameters, state anxiety, and pain levels (Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire) were measured at pre-test, 5 minutes after each PMR session, and 15 minutes after mobilization. Additionally, pain intensity was assessed immediately after mobilization. The frequency of analgesic administration was also monitored.
Progressive relaxation exercises
The aim of relaxation exercises is to help individuals recognize the difference between tension and relaxation and to enable them to relax in situations of stress. These exercises are performed with light background music and verbal instructions, allowing patients to mentally focus on the process. The progressive relaxation technique involves the voluntary contraction and subsequent relaxation of muscle groups, typically starting from the hands and progressing to the feet, with each muscle group activated in sequence. During the exercise, the instructions and steps from the 'Relaxation Exercises' CD published by the Turkish Psychologists Association will be followed.
