Abstract: Objective:To investigate the effects of treatment for neck shoulder pain with position intervention combined with respiratory training after laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC).Methods:One hundred cases with LC were randomly divided into experimental group and control group.Two groups were treated with routinely conventional oxygen 3 hours by 3 L/min oxygen flow.The experimental group were adopted semi-reclining position within 6 hours,who took deep breath at the time of neck shoulder pain,while the control group were adopted horizontal position without pillow,who exercised as early as possible at the time of neck shoulder pain.The incidences and degree of neck shoulder pain of two groups were observed after LC.Results:The incidences of neck shoulder pain of the experimental group(10.0%) were lower than that of the control group(34.0%)(P0.01).The visual analogue scale of experimental group was lower than that of control group at 6,12,24,48 and 72 hours after LC(P0.01).Conclusions:Modified semi-reclining position combined with respiratory training can reduce and relieved the incidence and degree of neck shoulder pain.
