Surgical treatment is applied in 15% of individuals diagnosed with lumbar disc herniation. In this study, it was aimed to determine the effect of Su Jok application, which is one of the non-drug methods, in reducing or completely eliminating pain and anxiety after lumbar disc surgery and increasing the quality of recovery.The universe of the study, between November 2022 and June 2023, Istanbul Kartal Dr. Patients with lumbar disc surgery will be recruited in the Neurosurgery Clinic of Lütfi Kırdar City Hospital. Data will be obtained with Introductory Information Form, McGill Pain Scale Short Form (SF-MPQ), Visual Analog Scale (Visual Comparison Scale) (VAS), STAII State Anxiety Scale, Quality of Recovery Questionnaire (QOR-40). The individual who will undergo lumbar disc surgery will be visited in the clinic one day before the surgery and will be informed about the study. The sampled individuals will be included in the intervention and control groups using a random number table created with MS Excel software. Su Jok will be applied to the patients included in the intervention group at the third hour after the operation. Before the application, Quality of Recovery Questionnaire (QOR-40), McGill Pain Scale Short Form and STAII State Anxiety Scale will be administered. After the application, the pain levels of the patients will be re-evaluated with the Visual Analogue Scale (Visual Comparison Scale) (VAS) and their anxiety levels will be re-evaluated with the STAII State Anxiety Scale. On the first and second days after the surgery, the patients will be visited again in the clinic and the Quality of Healing Questionnaire (QOR-40), Visual Analog Scale (Visual Comparison Scale) (VAS) and STAII State Anxiety Scales will be administered before the Su Jok application, and then the Su Jok application will be repeated.After the application, the pain levels of the patients will be re-evaluated with the Visual Analogue Scale (Visual Comparison Scale) (VAS) and their anxiety levels will be re-evaluated with the STAII State Anxiety Scale. Patients will be interviewed again at the control appointment 10 days after discharge, and their quality of recovery will be determined using the Quality of Healing Questionnaire (QOR-40). In the control group, pain, anxiety and healing quality levels will be determined in the same periods without any application.
