Official Title: Effect of KinesioTaping on Pain at Mediastinal-Thoracic Tube Sites After Cardiac Surgery: A Randomized Prospective Study
Brief Summary:
This study investigates the effectiveness of KinesioTaping applied around mediastinal and thoracic drain sites in reducing postoperative pain after cardiac surgery.Effective pain management is critical for early mobilization, improved patient satisfaction, and prevention of respiratory complications such as atelectasis.KinesioTaping is theorized to support soft tissue healing, improve circulation, and modulate pain through stimulation of cutaneous mechanoreceptors and fascia adjustment.However, evidence on its…
