Effects of a back-care bundle for reducing back pain among patients undergoing transfemoral artery coronary angiography: A randomized controlled trial. Appl Nurs Res 2023; 69:151652. [PMID: 36635008 DOI: 10.1016/j.apnr.2022.151652] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2022] [Revised: 10/24/2022] [Accepted: 12/06/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a back-care bundle on back pain in patients undergoing transfemoral coronary angiography (TFA). METHODOLOGY This randomized controlled trial was conducted between March and June 2020. Thirty-four patients undergoing TFA were randomly assigned to either the back-care bundle or comparison group. The back pain score was measured using a visual analogue scale at baseline and at 2, 3, 4, and 6 h after TFA. Haemorrhage and subcutaneous thrombosis were assessed using a soft measuring tape immediately after TFA, hourly until the 6th hour, or after participants changed their positions. Generalised linear estimating equation models were used to estimate the effects of the interventions on back pain scores. RESULTS The back pain scores in the intervention group decreased significantly over time (mean difference: -0.15; 95 % confidence interval [CI] -0.23 to -0.07; p-value <0.001), while the back pain scores in the comparison group increased significantly over time (mean difference: 1.30; 95 % CI 1.15 to 1.44; p-value <0.001). Overall, the mean difference of back pain scores between the two groups was -2.98 (95 % CI -3.32 to -2.64; p-value <0.001). Haemorrhage and subcutaneous thrombosis were not detected in either group of patients. CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS The back-care bundle effectively alleviated back pain in individuals undergoing TFA, with varying levels of bleeding risk. However, the effects of the back-care bundle on vascular complications remain unclear. For patients who do not have prolonged bleeding time, the duration of bed rest and the placement of a sand cushion on the puncture site can be reduced. Future trials are needed to develop and examine the effect of interventions in reducing back pain in patients with extended bleeding time.

Comparison of pain and discomfort in supine and lateral positions after surgery for lumbar degenerative disease: A prospective randomized controlled study. Int J Orthop Trauma Nurs 2022; 47:100959. [PMID: 36055074 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijotn.2022.100959] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2021] [Revised: 03/02/2022] [Accepted: 07/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION To compare postoperative pain and discomfort between supine and lateral positions after lumbar surgery, a prospective randomized controlled study was performed. METHODS Forty-three patients with lumbar degenerative disease, treated by decompression (n = 23) or fusion surgery (n = 20), were randomly assigned to be placed in either the supine (supine group: n = 21) or lateral (lateral group: n = 22) position postoperatively, and asked to maintain their position until a day after the surgery. Postoperative back pain and discomfort (visual analog scale [VAS], 0-100 mm) and the number of patients who could maintain their position were examined. RESULTS The VAS scores for back pain (supine: 64.9 ± 22.0, lateral: 55.7 ± 21.4) showed no significant difference between the positions. However, the supine group showed significantly more severe discomfort (75.6 ± 15.7) than the lateral group (64.9 ± 15.7, p = 0.039). Significantly fewer patients maintained their position in the supine group (28.2%) than in the lateral group (68.2%; p = 0.022). Among patients who underwent fusion surgery, significantly fewer patients maintained their position in the supine group (10.0%) than those in the lateral group (60.0%, p = 0.029). CONCLUSION Postoperative discomfort was significantly reduced in the lateral position than in the supine position; thus, the lateral position is more suitable after lumbar surgery in terms of postoperative discomfort.

Abstract
AIM To identify the effectiveness of a combined intervention of 25° upper body elevation and hand massage in patients undergoing radiofrequency catheter ablation. DESIGN A quasi-experimental study using a non-equivalent control group pre-test-post-test design. METHODS A total of 46 participants were assigned to an intervention group (N = 21) and a control group (N = 25). To test the effectiveness of the combined intervention, the major variables were low back pain and discomfort, including physical, psychological and environmental factors. RESULTS The control group had low back pain, and the physical, psychological and environmental discomfort scores increased over time, whereas the experimental group showed low back pain, and the physical, psychological and environmental discomfort scores were statistically significantly decreased. The combined intervention can be applied in clinical practice not only in patients who have undergone radiofrequency catheter ablation but also in those who require an immobile position due to puncture of a femoral blood vessel.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prolonged immobilization after transfemoral coronary angiography (TFA) may cause pain and vascular complications in patients. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a change in position to decrease pain and vascular complications for patients after TFA. METHODS This randomized clinical trial was conducted in 2020. Purposive sampling of 72 eligible patients undergoing TFA were selected and randomly assigned to either an experimental or control group. Patients in the experimental group (EG) were placed in a supine position for 2 h after angiography, followed by a semi-seated position with the bed angle gradually increased to 45° over 4 h. Patients in the control group (CG) remained in the supine position for 6 h. Vital signs, groin, back and leg pain, hematoma, hemorrhage, and urinary retention were assessed in both groups before, immediately after, and over 6 h after angiography. The Visual Analogue Scale was used to measure pain, the Christensen scale to measure hematoma, counting bloody gases to measure hemorrhage, and patient self-rating to determine urinary retention. RESULTS There was no significant difference between EG and CG on score of groin (2.69 ± 1.00 vs. 2.61 ± 1.00, P = 0.74), back (2.19 ± 0.98 vs. 2.47 ± 0.87, P = 0.21), and leg pain (2.14 ± 0.71 vs. 2.50 ± 1.08, P = 0.27) before the TFA. However, from the second hour to the sixth hour after the TFA, the pain in the EG was significantly less than the CG (P < 0.001). So that pain in the groin (1.36 ± 0.48 vs. 3.28 ± 0.81), back (1.25 ± 0.50 vs. 3.81 ± 1.06), and leg (1.44 ± 0.55 vs. 3.28 ± 0.81) for the EG patients was significantly less than the CG in the sixth hour after TFA (P < 0.001). No patients experienced hematoma. No differences were noted between groups in hemorrhage and urinary retention. CONCLUSIONS Position change to a semi-seated position in patients after TFA is effective and safe for reduction of pain without increasing vascular complications.

Asian Nurs Res (Korean Soc Nurs Sci) 2021; 15:150-156. [PMID: 33609762 DOI: 10.1016/j.anr.2021.02.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2020] [Revised: 01/11/2021] [Accepted: 02/08/2021] [Indexed: 10/22/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE A safe and effective hemostatic care is necessary after bone marrow examination to minimize bleeding, pain, and discomfort. However, a standardized hemostatic care protocol following bone marrow examination has not been established. The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in bleeding, hematoma, pain, and discomfort by the hemostatic method used following bone marrow examination. METHODS This study was carried out with a pre-test/post-test nonequivalent control group design. Sixty-four patients undergoing bone marrow examination at the hemato-oncology ward in a tertiary hospital in South Korea were assigned to an intervention (n = 30) and comparison group (n = 34). The intervention group was treated using a compression dressing alone, while the comparison group received a compression dressing followed by sandbag compression. Both groups received two hours of bedrest. Bleeding, hematoma, pain, and discomfort were measured at one and two hours after the biopsy. RESULTS No significant differences in the occurrence of bleeding between the groups at one and two hours after bone marrow examination were observed, and no participant developed hematoma. The intervention group had significantly lower pain than the comparison group two hours after the bone marrow examination as well as lower discomfort one hour and two hours after the bone marrow examination (p < .05). CONCLUSION Applying only compression dressing after a bone marrow examination is effective in reducing pain and discomfort without measurable differences in bleeding and hematoma, suggesting that compression dressings alone could be effective in lowering pain and discomfort following bone marrow examination.
