Brief Summary:
Patients undergoing urological surgery are usually elderly individuals and may experience sleep problems due to factors such as fear of death, anesthesia, and uncertainty. Insomnia can also cause problems such as delayed wound healing, increased pain, tension, and difficulty complying with treatment. This study aimed to improve sleep quality by performing gradual muscle exercises on patients undergoing urological surgery.
Detailed Description:
Urological surgery is a type of surgery that is usually performed on elderly individuals and can cause serious sleep problems in the pre- and post-operative period. While these patients experience sleep problems due to factors such as fear of death and uncertainty about anesthesia before surgery, significant decreases in sleep quality are observed after surgery due to reasons such as pain, anxiety and hospitalization. This sleeplessness can lead to many negative consequences such as delayed wound healing, increased pain, tension and difficulty in compliance with treatment. Sleep disorders also increase patients' stress and reduce their resistance. Progressive relaxation exercises (PGE) are a method that provides relaxation throughout the body by tensing and then relaxing all muscle groups in the body. This method is used as an effective nursing intervention, especially in the management of diseases and symptoms. This study aims to evaluate the effects of progressive relaxation exercises on sleep quality in patients undergoing urological surgery.
