Abstract
Orthopedic surgery, aimed at correcting musculoskeletal deformities,
may lead to postoperative pain. Adequate pain control is crucial for reducing
anxiety and facilitating deep breathing, allowing patients to tolerate rapid
mobilization. This study, conducted at RSU Royal Prima Medan in January 2024, analyzed
the impact of early mobilization on postoperative pain in orthopedic patients.
Using a correlational descriptive research approach and a One Group
Pretest-Posttest design, the study included 125 samples from 178 orthopedic
postoperative patients. Data analysis, performed with SPSS version 25, utilized
univariate and bivariate methods (paired t-test) with a significance level of
0.05. Results indicated that, before early mobilization, the majority of
respondents (50%) experienced increased pain, with a minority (20%) reporting
severe pain. Most respondents (64%) demonstrated effective early mobilization,
while a minority (36%) faced challenges. Following Early Mobilization, the
majority (55%) felt slightly more pain, and the minority (45%) experienced increased
pain. The paired t-test yielded a p-value of 0.011 ≤ 0.05, leading to the
rejection of Ho and acceptance of Ha. In conclusion, early mobilization
effectively reduced pain levels in orthopedic patients at Royal Prima Medan
General Hospital in 2024, with the majority experiencing a shift to “Slightly
More Pain” after the intervention.
