Acute Pain Chronic Progressive Cephalgia Progressive Muscle Relaxation
Abstract
Background: Chronic progressive onset cephalgia is a neurological issue with a high disability burden, often leading to the nursing diagnosis of acute pain. Non-pharmacological interventions, such as Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR), are needed for effective pain management.
Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness of Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) in reducing acute pain intensity in a patient with chronic progressive cephalgia.
Method: This study used a descriptive case study design in one adult patient with acute pain due to cephalgia. PMR intervention was administered twice daily for three days, with pain evaluation using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS).
Results: After three days of PMR intervention, the patient’s pain scale decreased from 7 (severe pain) to 3 (mild pain), indicating a significant reduction in pain intensity.
Conclusion: The patient's initial pain scale was 7 (severe pain). After three days of PMR implementation, the patient's pain intensity decreased significantly to 3 (mild pain). PMR is effective in reducing the intensity of acute pain in patients with chronic progressive cephalgia and is recommended as an independent nursing intervention.
