“…Preoperative strategies include patient education and psychological interventions, such as cognitive behavioural therapy. Distraction techniques, including music, aromatherapy, canine therapy and virtual reality have been used during and after operation, and have shown greatest benefit in patients with anxiety.

Background Acute postoperative pain is common. Nearly 20 per cent of patients experience severe pain in the first 24 h after surgery, a figure that has remained largely unchanged in the past 30 years. This review aims to present key considerations for postoperative pain management. Methods A narrative review of postoperative pain strategies was undertaken. Searches of the Cochrane Library, PubMed and Google Scholar databases were performed using the terms postoperative care, psychological factor, pain management, acute pain service, analgesia, acute pain and pain assessment. Results Information on service provision, preoperative planning, pain assessment, and pharmacological and non‐pharmacological strategies relevant to acute postoperative pain management in adults is presented, with a focus on enhanced recovery after surgery pathways. Conclusion Adequate perioperative pain management is integral to patient care and outcomes. Each of the biological, psychological and social dimensions of the pain experience should be considered and understood in order to provide optimum pain management in the postoperative setting.

Sezaryen ile doğum doğal doğumun mümkün olmadığı durumlarda hayat kurtarıcı bir girişimdir. Bununla beraber diğer cerrahi operasyonlara benzer olarak birçok riskli durumu, girişim sonrası yaşanabilecek birçok sorunu ve komplikasyonu da beraberinde getirebilmektedir. Sezaryen operasyonu sonrası yaşanabilecek sorunlardan biri olan ağrı postpartum dönemde anneyi sıkıntıya sokmaktadır. Anne günlük yaşam aktivitelerini gerçekleştirememe, kendisinin ve bebeğinin bakımında zorlanma, anne bebek etkileşiminde gecikme gibi birçok sorun yaşayabilmektedir. Bu noktada bireylerle uzun süre birlikte olan hemşirelerin rolü büyüktür. Hemşirelerin ağrı yönetiminde bakım sürecini etkin bir şekilde kullanarak tanılama, farmakolojik ve farmakolojik olmayan ağrı giderme yöntemlerini de hemşirelik girişimlerine dahil ederek uygulamalarda bulunma ve sonuçları değerlendirmeleri önemlidir. Bu derlemede sezaryen sonrası ağrı yönetimin önemi ve ağrı yönetimine yönelik hemşirelik bakım sürecine değinilmiştir.

However, these effects are not precisely proven and only a few studies have been conducted, especially in the elderly population (Dimitriou et al 2017;Hur et al 2014;Marofi & Siros Fard 2015;Ndao et al 2010;Stea Beraudi & De Pasquale 2014;Tang & Tse 2014).

Background: Acute postoperative pain is anticipated as a common problem in orthopedic surgeries especially arthroplasty which can cause harmful effects to the body and the psyche of the person. Currently, non-pharmacological approaches such as aromatherapy are taken into account pain relief along with pharmaceutical methods. The aim of the current study was to determine the effect of the aromatherapy with the Damask Rose on pain of elderly patients after knee arthroplasty surgery. Methods: This study is a non-randomized clinical trial, 80 elderly patients underwent knee arthroplasty surgery were selected from two hospitals (Moheb and Shafa) according to inclusion criteria and enrolled into the study by simple random sampling. Patients were divided into control and experimental groups. Interventions with Damask Rose were perfomred 24 hours after surgery and there were 4 sessions within 2 hours with 30 minutes interval. Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was used to measure pain and daya was analyzed using SPSS version 16. Results: In the experimental group, the pain intensity was significantly different before and after the intervention (P < 0.001). However, there was no significant difference in the pain intensity of the control group before and after the intervention (P = 0.66). Comparing the difference in pain scores before and after the intervention, there was a significant decrease in this score after the intervention in the experimental group compared to the control group and before intervention (P < 0.001). Conclusion: The study demonstrate that aromatherapy has a positive effect on reducing the postoperative pain of the elderly, and it can be used as a complementary medicine which is cost effective, safe, and easy to perform.
