Abstract
Objective: To analyze the effect of pain nursing combined with exercise and posture intervention on improving Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores in patients after kidney stone surgery. Methods: A sample of 80 patients who underwent kidney stone surgery from October 2024 to October 2025 was randomly divided into groups using a random number table. Group A received pain nursing combined with exercise and posture intervention, while Group B received conventional nursing. Postoperative recovery time, VAS scores, and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results: The postoperative recovery time in Group A was shorter than that in Group B, with p < 0.05. The VAS scores at 12 hours, 24 hours, and 72 hours postoperatively in Group A were all lower than those in Group B, with p < 0.05. The postoperative complication rate in Group A was lower than that in Group B, with p < 0.05. Conclusion: Pain nursing combined with exercise and posture intervention in postoperative nursing for kidney stone patients can shorten postoperative recovery time and alleviate pain scores.
