IRCT20220111053686N1 IRCT 2022-05-29 Shahid Rajaei Cardiovascular Research and Training Center The effect of acupressure on pain and sleep quality in cancer patients after surgery The effect of acupressure on pain and sleep quality of cancer patients undergoing surgery admitted to the intensive care unit 2022-05-31 anticipated 80 Complete https://irct.ir/trial/61312 interventional Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Single blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Supportive, Randomization description: In this study, the block randomization method will be used to allocate samples (block size: 4). Thus, the letter A is considered for the intervention group and the letter B for the control group. Then all the permutation combinations of the letters A, A, B and B, which are 6 different combinations, are written on the 6 cards in the following order:AABB،ABBA،ABAB،BAAB،BABA،BBAA.Then, from numbers 1 to 6, a card will be randomly selected by patient number one.For example, number 2 was chosen, which means that the first person in the intervention group, the next two people in the control group and the fourth person in the intervention group, and this process continued until the sample size reached the quorum, Blinding description: This is a single blind study in which patients are unaware that they are receiving acupressure or gentle surface pressure. The intervention group will receive acupressure and the control group will receive a gentle surface pressure at the same points. N/A other acute post procedural pain. Intervention 1: Intervention group: 40 patients with cancer admitted to the intensive care unit who suffer severe pain after surgery (pain score of 7 or more based on the Pain Visual Analog Scale), on the second and third day after surgery will be exposed to acupressure massage, on the LI4 points (between the base of thumb and index finger) and the SP6 points (the shin bone on the inside of the ankle) for periods of 10 seconds of pressure and 2 seconds of rest for 8 minutes in the morning and evening. Intervention 2: Control group: 40 cancer patients admitted to the intensive care unit who suffer severe pain after surgery (pain score of 7 or more based on the Pain Vision Analog Scale), on the second and third days after surgery will be exposed to superficial touch on LI4 points and SP6 during periods of 10 seconds of pressure and 2 seconds of rest for 8 minutes in the morning and evening. Yes - There is a plan to make this available What will be shared: Information on age, sex, type of cancer, marital status, occupation, education, place of residence, history of smoking, drug and alcohol use, and receiving painkillers on the second and third days after surgery can be shared. When: 6 months after the publication of the results To whom: All academics and researchers and professionals in the field of treatment Conditions: .In order to conduct more and more comprehensive research and complete the research process for its clinical application..
