This article will discuss the philosophical study of non-pharmacological pain management by looking at perspectives in ontology, epistemology and axiology. Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with tissue damage. The impact of pain can generate tension that can stimulate the central nerve to release catecholamines that cause arterial and tachycardial constriction. This can increase the afterload and decrease the cardiac output. Pain is influenced by biological, psychological, and social factors at varying degrees. Pain is a subjective experience of the patient so in the provision of nursing care to pain patients, it is necessary to pay attention to the factors that affect pain among other cultures. Understanding and knowledge of transcultural nursing theory, one of which is the Theory of Diversity-Based Diversity and Cultural Universality by Madeleine M. Leinenger with the sunrise model, must be owned by the nurse in conducting the assessment, making the diagnosis and arrange nursing intervention. Non-pharmacological pain management also needs to be done by nurses in overcoming pain problems in patients.

“…In addition, results of a survey on the use of distraction as a pain management technique among nurses showed that 159 (97.5%) of 163 participants used distraction to manage pain in their practice. 29 Patients undergoing a procedure with LA may experience anxiety based on what they see or hear. Results of a study on perceptions of patients during awake procedures showed that 41 (44%) of the 93 participants believed that additional preventive precautions were necessary to ensure patients do not see the surgical field.…”

In this randomized controlled trial, we assessed the effects of using a virtual reality (VR) and communication intervention on pain and anxiety in patients undergoing lipoma excision under local anesthesia. We conducted the study at a large hospital in Turkey between March 15 and September 15, 2019, with 100 participants. We used a pretest and posttest design to collect data with a personal information form, the Numeric Pain Rating Scale, and the State‐Trait Anxiety Inventory. The intervention group participants watched a video using a VR headset during the procedure and communicated with an investigator; the control group participants only received routine surgical treatment. The intervention had a significant effect on pain during the procedure (P < .001) and a moderate effect on anxiety 60 minutes after the procedure (P = .01). Use of VR and active communication may help reduce pain and anxiety for patients undergoing procedures performed with local anesthesia.

“…This mechanism decreases the activation of a set of brain regions, such as the thalamus, that contributes a consistent and significant role in pain perception. The gate control theory also explained this situation (Ibitoye et al, 2019). Some examples of distraction method that serves a pleasant stimulation are music, imagination, watching TV, hypnosis, massage, hydrotherapy, singing, rhythmic breathing, and playing a video game (Ibitoye et al, 2019;Sheykhasadi et al, 2019).…”

Pain is a devastating outcome following cardiac surgery due to routine procedures, including chest tube removal, deep breathing, and coughing exercise. Pharmacological treatment requires complementary interventions in addressing the post-acute pain phase. This study aimed to identify the application of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) to reduce postoperative pain after cardiac surgery. A literature search was conducted by exploring original studies on the Google Scholar, PubMed NCBI, ProQuest, and ScienceDirect database that published in the last five years (2016-2021), enrolled adult participants who were undergoing cardiac surgery, and evaluated the outcome of CAM therapy on the postoperative pain after the cardiac surgery. Eighteen original studies were analyzed and synthesized. Thirteen studies employed randomized controlled trial, four studies applied quasi-experimental, and one study used one group pre-post-test design. Among these studies, ten studies focused on the manipulative and body-based practices domain (cryotherapy and massage). The application of relaxation exercise, music therapy, and distraction technique from the mind-body intervention domain was discussed in six studies. Only three studies reported the utilization of therapy from the alternative medical system, biologically-based therapy, and energy therapy domain. The majority of the CAM interventions provided significant effects in postoperative pain relief after cardiac surgery. Nurses should be able to assign appropriate CAM therapies for each patient, although all domains of CAM consider as an effective modality for postoperative pain relief after cardiac surgery. Hence, the CAM therapy would be a proper complement for the pharmacological therapies, effective in reducing the pain, and provides a chance for the patient to manage their pain independently.
