Application value of Manchester Pain Management Model of patients undergoing rotator cuff repair surgery / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effects of Manchester Pain Management Model (MPMM) on postoperative pain and joint function for patients undergoing rotator cuff repair surgery.Methods:A total of 66 patients undergoing rotator cuff repair surgery from February 2017 to October 2020 in the First People′s Hospital of Hefei were divided into experimental group and control group by random digits table method, with 33 cases in each group. The control group received routine nursing; based on the routine care, the experimental group implemented MPMM-based intervention. The degree of pain and shoulder function of the two groups were assessed by Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Constant-Murley Scale (CMS).Results:During the study period, 1 case in the experimental group was lost, 32 cases in the final experimental group and 33 cases in the control group. There was no significant difference in the score of VAS and CMS before surgery between the two groups ( P>0.05). At 1 day, 3 days, 3 weeks and 6 weeks after surgery, VAS scores in the experimental group were 5.47 ± 1.72, 4.63 ± 1.16, 3.25 ± 0.78, 1.81 ± 0.52, lower than those scores in the control group 6.42 ± 1.03, 5.45 ± 1.54, 4.30 ± 0.64, 2.39 ± 0.47, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.36-3.11, all P<0.05). At 3, 6, 12 weeks after surgery, CMS scores in the experimental group were 57.09 ± 4.32, 67.75 ± 4.60, 81.94 ± 4.18, higher than those scores in the control group 52.27 ± 5.39, 64.24 ± 3.76, 78.91 ± 4.36, the differences were statistically significant ( t=3.97, 3.37, 2.89, all P<0.01). Conclusions:MPMM can effectively alleviate the postoperative pain and promote the recovery of joint function in patients undergoing rotator cuff repair surgery.
