Abstract

Objective: To evaluate postoperative pain in patients undergoing lumbar vertebroplasty and to analyze factors associated with postoperative pain and nursing pain care activities. Methods: A prospective cross-sectional study was conducted on 42 patients treated at the Neurosurgery Department, Ha Dong general hospital, from April 2025 to September 2025. Results: Among 42 patients who underwent lumbar vertebroplasty at Ha Dong Hospital, VAS pain scores significantly decreased from 3.9 ± 0.7 at 24 hours postoperatively to 1.1 ± 0.5 at discharge. Pain during mobilization was significantly higher than at rest (p < 0.05). Both back and leg pain decreased progressively over time (p < 0.05). At discharge, 88.1% of patients reported mild back pain (VAS 1–3), while 83.3% reported no leg pain (VAS 0). Patients highly valued nursing pain care activities, such as supporting rehabilitation exercises, responding promptly to reported pain, and providing information to physicians for pain management. Most nursing activities did not significantly affect postoperative VAS scores, except for pain assessment at discharge (p = 0.04). Conclusion: Postoperative VAS pain scores were significantly reduced. Nursing pain care activities were highly appreciated by patients. It is necessary to strengthen training and standardize pain management, enhance patient counseling, and encourage as well as promote the involvement of experienced nurses.
