Aims: This study was to investigate the effect of foot reflexology on sternotomy pain of patientsʹ undergone coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
Methods: In a quasi-experimental study, 90 patients randomly divided into three groups of case, control and placebo. The reflexology group received a 10-minute right foot massage in desired location, twice a day with 6-hours interval for 2 consecutive days. The placebo group undertook a 10-minute left foot massage and the control group received no intervention. Only at the time mentioned, the amount of visual analogue scale was measured.
Results: The mean of pain intensity before and after intervention in three groups had a significant difference (p<0.001). Average of pain intensity in the case group before the intervention was 6.4(±2.1) and after intervention was 3.4(±5.1). The mean of pain intensity in control group before and after intervention was respectively 5.1(±1.7) and 5(±1.9). Independent T-test showed a significant reduction in intensity of preoperative pain between case and control groups (p<0.001).
Conclusion: Foot reflexology appears to be a useful method for reducing sternotomy pain in patients after coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
