Abstract

Background: Burn is the worst tragedy among modern societies that individuals may experience. One of the most important problems of burns is pain; particularly at the time of treatment which includes burn dressings, debridement, surgical incisions and physiotherapy. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of using the deep breathing technique to decrease pain intensity during wound care for burned patients. Design: A quasi-experimental design was utilised. Setting: The study was conducted in the burn unit at El Minia general hospital. Sample: A purposive sample of (60) adult patients from both genders who were randomly and alternatively divided into two equal groups study and control (30 patients in each group). Tools: data were collected by three tools: tool I, Structured interview questionnaire, tool II, patient observational checklist and tool III, pain assessment scale. Results: The study revealed that there was a statistically significant difference in decreasing pain intensity among the study group after implementing the deep breathing technique. Conclusion: the application of the deep breathing technique for burned patients was effective in decreasing pain intensity. Recommendations: Apply the deep breathing technique for burned patients by teaching technique before wound care and apply it during and after wound care as routine and regular care to decrease pain intensity associated with wound care.
深呼吸技术在烧伤病人伤口护理中的应用
背景:烧伤是现代社会中个人可能经历的最严重的悲剧。烧伤最重要的问题之一是疼痛;特别是在治疗时,包括烧伤敷料,清创,手术切口和物理治疗。本研究的目的是评估在烧伤患者的伤口护理中使用深呼吸技术减轻疼痛强度的效果。设计:采用准实验设计。环境:研究在El Minia综合医院的烧伤科进行。样本:目的样本为(60)名男女成年患者,随机分为研究组和对照组(每组30例)。工具:通过三种工具收集数据:工具一,结构化访谈问卷,工具二,患者观察表和工具三,疼痛评估量表。结果:研究发现,在实施深呼吸技术后,实验组之间疼痛强度的降低有统计学意义。结论:在烧伤患者中应用深呼吸技术能有效减轻疼痛强度。建议:烧伤患者在创面护理前通过教学技术应用深呼吸技术,在创面护理中和创面护理后作为常规和常规护理使用,以减轻创面护理相关的疼痛强度。
