The participants were randomly divided into the intervention group (n=25) and the control group (n=25). Based on the routine nursing care,patients in the intervention group also had to wear the pressure brake pants. The general comfort questionnaire (GCQ) was applied to assess the comfort level. Comparing the comfort and satisfaction between the two groups.Results The intervention group had higher GCQ score six hours after the operation compared with the control group (P<0.05).
