Abstract

Postoperative pain is a prevalent experience in persons hospitalised in surgical institutions. Therefore, controlling and decreasing it are one of the aims of nursing. A total of 86 Nurses participated in the study of which 78 of them were females and 8 men. Pain management training programmes both boosted the knowledge and modified the attitudes of nurses regarding pain treatment and control. The proportion of surgical treatments conducted is expanding globally. There is a difficulty of successfully treating Postoperative Pain (POP) because of the growth in the number of surgical procedures undertaken. POP management is a significant role of all healthcare personnel, but nurses in particular. This is because the nurses are the frontlines for the patient care. So that, understanding the nurses degree of practice towards POP treatment and related components is a vital and major concerns to strengthen the recovery of the patients from their pain sooner. However the practice of POP treatment and related variables among nurses working in a surgical track in the research region is unclear.
