Non Pharmacological Therapy in Case Study Obstacles to Physical Mobility Post Sectio Caesaria

Abstract

Sectio Caesarea surgery causes pain and results in changes in tissue continuity due to surgery, early mobilization can support the patient's wound healing process because moving the limbs will prevent the stiffness of muscles and joints, reducing pain and can accelerate blood circulation to parts that have injuries that wound healing processes become faster. This study was to explore nursing care in postoperative Sectio Caesarea with problems with physical mobility barriers through lavender aromatherapy in the Teratai Room RSUD dr. Hayato Lumajang. Qualitative descriptively through case studies. The population in this study was postoperative mothers with Sectio Caesarea in the Lotus Room at RSUD Dr. Haryoto, Lumajang Regency, with a total of 10 patients in June 2020. The use of aromatherapy dripped onto an oxygen mask for 3 minutes, after 3 hours of analgesic administration. Both the inhalation method with an oxygen mask and directly inhaled prove that lavender essential oil aromatherapy can reduce the pain scale of post-section Caesarea. This research is expected with this case study report to increase knowledge and insight in applying to patients and patients families about postoperative Sectio Caesarea in the implementation of early mobilization, as well as innovations in giving lavender aromatherapy, can also be done to post Sectio Caesarea patients. And it can be used as a new experience and information to reduce pain with aromatherapy.
