| dc.description.abstract | Acute pain frequently affects post-cesarean section patients and, if left unmanaged, can slow
recovery and potentially lead to chronic pain. Non-pharmacological methods like Deep
Breathing Relaxation combined with Murottal Al-Quran therapy offer a promising solution to
alleviate this pain. This case study examines the effectiveness of these techniques in
reducing acute pain post-cesarean section in the Teratai Ward of Dr. Haryoto Regional
General Hospital, Lumajang. Therapy involves daily 20-minute sessions of QS Ar-Rahman
(78 verses) recited by Qori' Ahmad Saud via MP3. The participant was a patient meeting
specific criterion: hospitalized for at least 3 days, with moderate pain levels (NRS score),
exhibiting signs such as pain complaints, grimacing, protective behaviors, sleep difficulties,
of Islamic faith, and with no hearing impairments. Pain levels were measured using the
Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) before and after the intervention. Results showed a notable
reduction in pain over the 3-day intervention, with the NRS score decreasing from 7
(moderate) to 4 (mild), accompanied by reduced grimacing, less protective behavior, and
improved sleep quality. This study suggests that combining deep breathing relaxation and
Murottal Al-Quran offers significant pain relief for post-cesarean patients. It is practical and
cost-effective, allowing it to be easily implemented by nursing staff starting from the first-day
post-surgery. These findings highlight a feasible approach for pain management in postcesarean care, providing an effective and accessible option that aligns with the needs of
Islamic patients, ultimately enhancing their comfort and recovery process | en_US |
