Summary

Postoperative thirst is one of the most common problems in patients. Thirst is a subjective symptom. Thirst can cause unwanted problems in patients such as anxiety, discomfort and nausea. It may even cause anxiety, hypertension, dysrhythmia, non-compliance with treatment and increased need for anesthesia. Although different methods have been applied in the management of thirst in the existing literature and positive results have been obtained, studies with high evidence value are very limited. The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of two different methods in thirst management.
