dc.description.abstractPurpose: This study determined the effect of foot massage on postoperative pain and anxiety levels in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery. Design: A randomized controlled trial. Methods: This study was conducted in a general surgery clinic of a university hospital between May 2016 and March 2018. The research sample consisted of 167 patients (85 in the experimental group and 82 in the control group) who met the research inclusion criteria. Findings: The pain intensity of patients in the experimental group was less than in the control group at 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after intervention (P < .05). A significant reduction was determined in the need for analgesics for the patients in the experimental group compared with the control group (P < .05). A significant positive relationship was found between pain intensity and state anxiety levels in patients of the experimental group. Conclusions: Foot massage decreased postoperative pain and anxiety levels in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery.
