6. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
6.1 INTRODUCTION:
Early ambulation is procedure characterized by a shorter period of
hospitalization or recumbency or by more rapid of mobilization than the normal
practice in the presence of guider or nursing staff or physiotherapist.1
The 1st or 2nd days of minimal movements and gentle turning .Patients
will advised to under go slow mobilization within there limit and depending on
the surgical interventions as well as patient state. Early ambulation arise from the
fact that ,tissue recovery as well as returning of normal day to day functions
would depend on the movements that takes place at the phase of post operative
recovery .Thus knowing what benefits will bring would be useful in being
motivated to do so even with significant of discomfort of this time.4

The mobilization will helps the bowels to move and the gasses to expelled,
thus eliminating the discomfort of abdominal distention, constipation as well as it
improves appetite.
Early ambulation prevents joint stiffness and contractures.

this on the pre operative cases was to patients become pretty well able to look
after themselves.7
In India study on hysterectomy till the last decade have focused per yearly
on clinical out comes with limited analysis of precedence of hysterectomies and
its public health implications, 6-9 in 2008.Study in Haryan is one of the wealthier
study Singh and Aurora to found that 70 women’s in rural sample of 1000 women
had undergone hysterectomy, primarily for heavy menstrual bleeding.
Proximately half (46%) of women underwent hysterectomy reported some of later
complications such as excessive bleeding, fever and pain.9

already undergone the previously at a median age of 24 years because of acute
pelvic inflammatory diseases, uterine prolapse,UTI and Uterine bleeding.9

A descriptive study was conducted in Holy Cross Hospital, Kerala. The
sample was 30 viewed through purposive sampling technique. The tool was
structured interview was made half an hour before the surgery and observation
schedule 6 hrs after surgery. The reliability co-efficient was found to be 0.82. the
statistical analysis included both descriptive and inferential statistics. Frequency
and percentage distribution to assess pre operative, post operative Nursing care.
Chi square used find out the association between level of care and demographic
variables Carl Pearson correlation co-efficient used to find out the relationship
between pre operative care, and post operative complications. The study
concluded and suggested that the nursing care provided to abdominal surgery
patients is adequate in area like need for safety has to be improved. Explanation to
fly members also has to be improved.11

to increase level of performance and enhance the early recovery of the patients by
using some of exercises and early mobilization of patients after surgery.13

A descriptive study was conducted in Mishra hardy and Kuhn in US. The
sample of 65 women aged 23-70 years those undergone hysterectomy. The study
established tool is to describe participants’ response on anxiety, depression,
hostility, self esteem, sexual functions. Background advanced in health care has
improved morbidity Statistics for patients undergoing hysterectomy and this study
concluded that improved surgical recovery prophylactic antibiotics and early
ambulation have contributed to reduction of complications and to decrease the
morbidity associated diseases. The fatal impact of this study was significantly
different across the time with greatest negative impact occurring at 1 wk and least
negative impact on 1 year post surgery F=4 and p=0.01 and 1 year post
hysterectomy cases F=6.7,P=0.001.18
PROBLEM STATEMENT:

6.4 OBJECTIVES:
1. To assess the effectiveness of early ambulation and post operative recovery
among the women undergo abdominal hysterectomy in experimental group and
control group.
2. To associate the effectiveness of early ambulation and post operative recovery
with selected demographical variable among Experimental group and control
group.
a) Sense of well being scores: Refers to sense of well being of patients who
undergone abdominal hysterectomy surgery as measured by the items in the
interview guides. The sense of recovery ,confidence while walking, improve pain
reduction,sleeping,length of walking and urine flow control etc.
11
b)Functional activity scores check after 16hr, 36hr 48hr 72: Refers to
restorations of physiological condition of those patients who undergone
abdominal hysterectomy surgery as measured in terms of observation schedule.
The functional activity included ambulation ,respiratory sounds,obseravation of
bowel sounds ,ability for elimination ,ability to feed and intake of analgesics.
6.5 ASSUMPTIONS:
1. The tool would be efficient and represent to comb act the measure
effectiveness of early ambulation and post operative recovery.
2. The patient would co-operative with the researcher and would be willing to
participate effectively in nursing care while mobilization.
6.6 HYPOTHESIS:
H1: There will be a significant difference in the activities of daily living scores in
Relation to early ambulation and post operative recovery among patients
undergone abdominal Hysterectomy surgery in experimental group and control
group.
H2: There will be a significant difference in the functional activity scores in
Relation to early ambulation and post operative recovery among patients
undergone abdominal Hysterectomy surgery in experimental group and control
group
H3: There will be a significant difference in the sense of well being scores in
Relation to early ambulation and post operative recovery among patients
undergone abdominal Hysterectomy surgery in experimental group and control
group
12
H4: There will significant difference among selected demographical variable and
actives of daily living scores in relation to early ambulation and post operative
recovery among patients undergone abdominal hysterectomy in Experimental
group .
H5: There will be significant difference among selected variables and functional
activity scores in relation to early ambulation and post-operative recovery among
the patients who had undergone abdominal hysterectomy in experimental group.
H6:There will be significant difference among selected variables and sense of
well being scores in relation to early ambulation and post operative recovery
among patients undergone abdominal hysterectomy in experimental group.
