About this trial

This study was planned to evaluate the effect of early mobilization training given to patients undergoing cesarean section in the preoperative period and targeted mobilization program applied after the surgery, on preventing gastrointestinal complications that may develop after the surgical intervention and participating in breastfeeding and baby care. The research will be conducted in experimental design. The research will begin after receiving written permission from Niğde Ömer Halisdemir University Ethics Committee, Niğde Provincial Health Directorate and Ömer Halisdemir Training and Research Hospital. Pregnant women who are between the ages of 18-35, who are at least a primary school graduate, who gave birth at term, who have a live singleton pregnancy, and who do not have a risky pregnancy history (DVT, thromboembolism) will be included in the study. Before starting the research, the study will begin by obtaining institutional permissions and written permission from the pregnant women. Personal Information Form prepared in line with the literature, postoperative gastrointestinal functions information form, postoperative abdominal distension diagnosis form, walking chart, VAS, LATCH Breastfeeding Diagnosis and Evaluation Scale and Breastfeeding Information Form data collection forms will be used to collect data. The data will be evaluated on a computer using the IBM SPSS Statistics 24 (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences for Windows) package program. Appropriate statistical analyzes will be used to evaluate the data

Treatments tested in this trial

  • mobilization training and targeted mobilization

    Other intervention

    In the first interview with the patients, the content of the early mobilization training given to the patients, what early mobilization is, why it is important, what benefits it provides, what the mobilization goals determined for the patient within the scope of the research, the benefits of walking and the expected results will be explained. It will be explained how to benefit from the smartphone during the mobilization process. In addition to all the training, the patients in the intervention group will be given detailed information about what they need to record in the mobilization diary (total time they walked, how many steps they took in the pedometer application after each mobilization, positive/negative situations they experienced while standing up and walking) and all the forms that will be used in the data collection phase.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Postoperative Gastrointestinal Functions Information Form

The form, which will evaluate women's postoperative GI functions, includes six questions that evaluate the time and amount of oral intake after surgery, the time of first gas and defecation, and nausea and vomiting.

Time frame
3 month
2

Postoperative Abdominal Distension Diagnosis Form

The form is a measurement tool that evaluates abdominal distension status at 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours after surgery using a scale ranging from 0 (no distension) to 10 (the most severe distension possible)

Time frame
3 month
3

VAS (Visual Analog Scala)

It consists of a 10 cm long horizontal or vertical line, which is often used to measure subjective parameters. One end of the line indicates 0 = "no pain", the other 10 = worst/unbearable pain.

Time frame
3 month

Secondary outcomes

1

LATCH Breastfeeding Diagnostic and Assessment Scale

Each criterion that makes up the LATCH Breastfeeding Diagnosis and Assessment Scale is given a score of 0, 1, or 2. Breastfeeding success is assessed by adding the scores. The highest score that can be obtained from the scale is 10 and the lowest score is 0.

Time frame
3 month
2

Breastfeeding Information Form

The form consists of six questions to determine the breastfeeding status, frequency and participation in baby care of women on days 0, 1 and 2 after surgery.

Time frame
3 month
