Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of early bed mobility exercises and ambulation in reducing post-operative pain among women who undergo elective cesarean section. A randomized controlled trial will be conducted with 56 participants divided into intervention and control groups. The intervention group will receive physiotherapy exercises such as pelvic rolling, breathing exercises, and ambulation, while the control group will receive routine nursing care. Pain intensity will be assessed using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NPRS). The study is expected to show that early mobilization reduces pain, improves recovery, and enhances overall well-being.
