Abstract:Introduction: Postoperative pain is common and occurs frequently in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, which can lead to adverse events. Therefore, it is critical that assessment and adequate analgesia are performed to avoid compromising the recovery process. It is recommended that multimodal therapy be used for this purpose, as it promotes better analgesia. Therefore, the aim of this study is to search for studies that address the efficacy of nonpharmacological methods for pain relief in these patients.
