Özet
Objective: The study was conducted to determine the effect of cold application in the early postoperative period for pain and bleeding in patients who had septoplasty to correct septum deviation. Design: Randomized, controlled, experimental study Setting: This study was conducted at Ear, Nose and Throat Clinic, Research and Application Hospital of Duzce University, Turkey. Subjects: The study was conducted on 60 patients. One half of the patients were included in the experiment group (n = 30) and the other half in the control group (n = 30). Interventions: Data collection was achieved using a form for patients' identifying information and the Post-Operative Pain Intensity Assessment Scale and Post-Operative Grading Scale for assessments of bleeding. Main outcome measures: Post-Operative Pain Intensity Assessment Scale and Post-Operative Grading Scale for assessments of bleeding Result: Cold application was shown to be effective in reducing pain that developed in the early postoperative period (p < 0.05). The degree of bleeding was found to be lower in the experiment group in comparison with the control group (p > 0.05). Conclusion: Applying cold in the early postoperative period to patients who had septoplasty to correct septum deviation is recommended to reduce operation-related pain and bleeding in the postoperative period.
