Brief summary
This study explores the impact of pranayama and deep breathing exercises on alleviating shoulder pain and improving sleep quality following laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Detailed description
The data were collected by the researcher by face-to-face interview method at SBU Van Training and Research Hospital General Surgery Clinics. Necessary information was given to healthcare professionals in the clinics where the research would be conducted, and the lists of patients who would undergo surgery were followed. Data collection started in the preoperative period, and the data collection phase ended when the patient was discharged after the surgery. To collect pranayama, deep breathing and control group data, the researcher identified patients who were scheduled to undergo laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery in general surgery services on a daily basis and met the sampling criteria. In the hospital where the research was conducted, laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgeries were performed excluding emergency surgeries. It is performed electively and patient education is provided on the day of surgery. Patients are taken into surgery according to the surgery list determined the day before. It was determined by randomization whether the patients participating in the study would be in the control or experimental groups. Patients were included in the study according to randomization order. Patients coming for surgery were randomly assigned to a pranayama group, a deep breathing group, and a control group. This randomization technique was continued until the sample number in the research groups was reached, and the study was terminated when 22 patients were included in the pranayama group, 22 in the deep breathing group and 22 in the control group.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation of pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy with visual analogue scale in deep breathing group, pranayama group and control groups. | Pain was evaluated before surgery. After surgery, pain was evaluated before and after exercise, at the 6th hour, 12th hour, 24th hour and at discharge. | On the visual analogue scale, 0 points mean no pain, and 10 points mean unbearable pain. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation of sleep of patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy with the Richard Campbell Sleep Scale | The sleep quality of the patients was measured before the surgery and in the morning of the second day of the surgery. | Sleep is evaluated on a chart between 0 and 100. A score between 0-25 from the scale indicates very poor sleep, and a score between 76-100 indicates very good sleep. |
