Abstract
Purpose: to study the effect of a pain management program using a Rice-berry pillow cold compress in patients with gastrointestinal disease post-abdominal surgery.
Design: Experimental research
Methods: The sample was 40 patients undergoing abdominal surgery at Rayong Hospital, Rayong, Thailand. Forty abdominal surgery participants were studied with matched pairs and random assignment into the experimental and control group. (experimental group 20 patients, control group 20 patients). Patients in the experimental group received a pain management program using Rice- a berry pillow cold compress on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd day after abdominal surgery. Two times a day before early ambulation for 15 minutes. At the same time, patients in the control group received conventional nursing care. The research instrument was pain management using a Rice-berry pillow cold compress. The instrument for collecting data was the Numerical Rating Scale, and was tested for reliability with Pearson’s Correlation of .801. Statistical techniques used in data analysis were independent t-tests and Repeated Measured ANOVA.
Results: The participants in the experimental group had lower mean pain scores than the control group on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd days after abdominal surgery. Statistically significant .05 (p <.05)
