Summary

The patient in the surgical treatment and care process has difficulty in meeting the need for sleep in the hospital, and accordingly, their habits, attitudes and behaviors regarding sleep and rest change. Studies have shown that hospitalized patients experience sleep deprivatio.The decrease in sleep duration and quality is an important component affecting recovery after surgery. Studies have reported that massage reduces physical and emotional stress and increases sleep quality, while back massage reduces pain, anxiety and sleep disorders.

It has been reported that back massage reduces cortisol levels and blood pressure, slows heart rate and improves sleep quality (Pınar and Afşar 2015). This study was planned as a case-control study to evaluate the effect of massage therapy applied after open cardiovascular surgery on patients' pain, sleep quality and serum cortisol levels. It is thought that the study will create literature information on the sleep quality, pain and serum cortisol levels of patients after open heart surgery.
