Summary
This study tested whether doing progressive relaxation exercises after emergency surgery can help with pain, anxiety, and vital signs like heart rate. 70 adults were split into two groups: one did relaxation exercises at 6 hours, 1 day, and 2 days after surgery, while the other received standard care. The relaxation group reported significantly less pain and anxiety, and had better heart rate and oxygen levels. This suggests a simple, drug-free way to improve recovery after emergency surgery.
