This randomized controlled study aimed to evaluate the effect of hand massage on pain, emotional symptoms, and physiological parameters in children after abdominal surgery.
The study included 40 children aged 7-12 years who underwent abdominal surgery (20 intervention, 20 control). Data were collected using the Faces Pain Scale-Revised, Children's Emotion Manifestation Scale, Physiological Measurements Chart, and Child Information Form. The intervention group received a 10-min hand massage 3 h after surgery, and measurements were taken before the massage, immediately after the massage, and 30 min after the massage. Statistical analyses were performed using the Mann-Whitney U, Friedman, and Bonferroni tests.
Immediately after the massage, the pain and emotional manifestation scores were significantly lower in the intervention group compared to the control group (p < 0.05). However, no significant difference was found between the two groups at the third measurement (p = 0.478). Heart rate significantly decreased in the intervention group immediately after the massage (p < 0.001), while it significantly increased in the control group (p < 0.001).
本随机对照研究旨在评估手部按摩对腹部手术后儿童的疼痛、情绪症状和生理参数的影响。
该研究纳入了40名7至12岁接受腹部手术的儿童（20名干预组，20名对照组）。使用面部疼痛量表修订版、儿童情绪表现量表、生理测量图表和儿童信息表收集数据。干预组在术后3小时接受10分钟的手部按摩，并在按摩前、按摩后立即以及按摩后30分钟进行测量。采用曼-惠特尼U检验、弗里德曼检验和邦费罗尼检验进行统计分析。
按摩后立即测量时，干预组的疼痛和情绪表现得分显著低于对照组（p < 0.05）。然而，在第三次测量时，两组之间未发现显著差异（p = 0.478）。干预组按摩后立即心率显著下降（p < 0.001），而对照组心率显著上升（p < 0.001）。
