About this trial

Kinesio taping gently stretches the skin and creates a gap between the dermis and fascia, increasing lymphatic and vascular flow and reducing pain without restricting movement. It is used to provide rehabilitation after surgical operations. This study will be conducted to determine the effect of kinesio taping on the mother\'s pain and comfort after cesarean section. It is planned to include 60 women who gave birth by cesarean section in the obstetrics and gynecology department at Şırnak State Hospital. Research data will be collected with the visual analog scale and postpartum comfort scale. If the data shows normal distribution, Unrelated Samples t Test, Related Samples t Test and Repeated Measures ANOVA (Repeated Measures) tests will be used.

kinesio taping
Other intervention
Despite the increasing indications and new application techniques developed all over the world, it is believed that there is a need for evidence regarding the mechanisms of action and effectiveness of kinesio taping. As a result of the literature review, no study was found in which kinesio taping was applied for 72 hours as a non-pharmacological complementary method to reduce postoperative pain after cesarean section and increase postpartum comfort. In this study, it is planned to apply kinesiotaping for 72 hours after cesarean section.
