Abstract | Pain assessment and pain management is the most crucial job of critical care nurses. Pain assessment and its management in patients undergoing cranioplasty, especially those with communication barriers, continue to present challenges to nurses in the critical care areas. The present study was undertaken to assess the level of post-operative pain suffered by patients after cranioplasty, to identify the activities that increases/relieve pain and to find out association between pain score of patients and selected variables. This study has used the following tools, a self-prepared validated questionnaire and Wong Bakers Faces pain scale. As per the findings, the post-operative pain was mild to moderate and decreased from first to third postoperative day. Patients Pain relief was adequate with the combination therapy of pain medications like non-narcotic analgesics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The study revealed that there was no significant difference between the pain perception and age or gender of the patient. It is found that the activities that increased pain were surgical dressing removal and patient’s position changing. Critical care nursing staff should focus on assessing and managing post-operative pain to improve quality of nursing care in order to improve the comfort of cranioplasty patients. |
