Nursing interventions in the field of pain reduction in burn patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Although pain control in patients with burns has improved over recent years, the ineffectiveness of some treatments to reduce pain in this group of patients remains a challenging issue for health care professionals. This systematic review was conducted to investigate nursing interventions in the field of pain relief in burn patients.
In this systematic review and meta-analysis, relevant information was searched from databases PubMed, Science Direct, Scopus, Irandoc, SID, and Cochrane library with keywords nursing interventions, pain, burns and their equivalent Persian keywords in the period 2010-2020. To increase the validity and reliability of the study, three people evaluated the quality of the articles separately and Jedad criterion was used to evaluate the articles.
After assessing 181 articles on the databases, 19 articles were systeatically reviewed. Nursing interventions to reduce pain in burn patients included using breathing techniques, new dressings, muscle relaxation, music therapy, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), electrical brain stimulation, play therapy, aromatherapy, use of Zekr Allah, massage, guided imagery, distraction techniques, and eye movement desensitization. In eight meta-analyses, total mean differences of pain relief score were estimated 1.28 (0.95% CI: 0.78-1.78).
Most nursing interventions reduced pain in burn patients. Easier-to-use pain relief techniques such as muscle relaxation, guided imagery, and spiritual care are emphasized.
