Abstract

Patients who have undergone cholecystectomy generally experience acute pain due to the surgical incision, which, if not properly managed, can reduce comfort, hinder mobility, slow healing, and lower quality of life. One nonpharmacological therapy that can be administered is Benson relaxation therapy. This study investigates medical-surgical nursing care for patients undergoing post-operative laparoscopic cholecystectomy with the nursing issue of discomfort and pain. It employs a case study research design in the form of family-centered nursing care, involving 1 research subject with a medical diagnosis of cholelithiasis. Data collection instruments included an observation sheet and the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS). Results: Administration of Benson relaxation therapy once daily for 3 days, each session lasting 10 minutes, led to a reduction in pain scores when evaluated on the third day. Specifically, the first patient’s pain score was 6 before the intervention and decreased to 2 after the intervention. Conclusion: Benson relaxation therapy can reduce acute pain in patients following cholecystectomy. The results of this study can serve as a routine therapy for patients to perform when experiencing pain.

Abstract

Background: Acute pain is a common problem experienced by patients after cholelithiasis surgery due to tissue injury and the inflammatory process resulting from surgical procedures. Uncontrolled pain can interfere with mobilization, rest, and the recovery process. Slow deep breathing is a non-pharmacological intervention that can help reduce pain by promoting relaxation and decreasing sympathetic nervous system activity. Objective: To determine the application of Evidence-Based Nursing through slow deep breathing techniques for acute pain management in post-cholelithiasis surgery patients. Methods: A case study was conducted on post-cholelithiasis surgery patients experiencing acute pain. Pain intensity was assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) before and after the implementation of slow deep breathing therapy for approximately 5–10 minutes. Data were collected through interviews, observations, physical examinations, and nursing documentation. Results: The implementation of slow deep breathing resulted in a reduction in pain intensity. Patients reported decreased pain levels, appeared more relaxed, showed reduced facial grimacing, and experienced improved comfort after the intervention. Implications: Slow deep breathing is effective in reducing acute pain in post-cholelithiasis surgery patients and can be applied as a complementary non-pharmacological nursing intervention in pain management.
