Abstract

Nurses play an important role in pain management of patients who undergone surgery. This quai-experimental study explored the effects of pain management program in bone and soft tissue tumor patients. The gate control theory was used as conceptual framework of the study. The sample was 42 bone and soft tissue tumor patients admitted to the male orthopedic ward, during January 2018 to July 2019. The research instruments consisted of two parts: (1) pain management program; (2) data collection tools, consisting of demographic data sheet, postoperative pain management records, and patients’satisfaction assessment. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The Fisher’s exact test was used to compare the proportion of pain intensity, and Wilcoxon’s rank sum test was used to compare the averages of pain scores between 24 and 48 hours of postoperative periods. Results showed that the samples who received pain management program had statistically significance decreased in pain intensity during 24 and 48 hours of postoperative periods at p<.001. The average pain scores after receiving the program within 24 and 48 hours postoperative periods, were statistically significant lower than before receiving the program at p=.027 and p=.016 respectively. The samples were satisfied with the pain management program at the high levels and they reported the effectiveness of the program at the high levels. This program help relieve pain in post-operative bone and soft tissue tumor patients.
