Purpose: Patients who underwent a coronary artery bypass graft surgery(CABG) experienced the unpleasant emotions and discomfort when their chest tube was removed. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of cold therapy on pain related to chest tube removal(CTR) in CABG patients.
Methods: Fifty adult patients undergoing CABG were recruited in a prospective, double blinded study. Subjects were divided into the experimental group and the control group considering their sex and age. The pretest data were obtained 20 minutes before CTR. Patients in the experimental group, received cold therapy for 10 minutes before CTR. Pain sense and intensity were determined immediately after CTR and at 10 minutes after CTR.
Results: The total score of pain sense immediately after CTR of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group(t=-3.703, p=.003). And scores of pain intensity immediately after CTR in the experimental group were significantly lower than that of the control group(t=-3.073, p=.001). But, there was no significant difference in the score of pain intensity 10 minutes after CTR between the experimental and the control group(t=1.759, p=.085).
Conclusion: The cold therapy would be recommended as an effective and nonpharmacologic nursing intervention for relieving pain in patients undergoing CTR.
