Abstract

Fracture is a break of continuity of bone, usually caused by trauma or physical exertion. Pain is the
most common complaint in patients with fracture. One of the interventions that can reduce fracture
pain is giving cold compress using a towel put in ice cubes mixed with water and put it on the skin
that do for 10 minutes. The purpose of this research was to analyze the effect of cold compress
therapy against post operative pain in patients ORIF fracture. This research method was pre
experimental with one group pretest-posttest design. The sampling technique was quota sampling
involving 10 respondents. The independent variable was cold compress therapy and dependent
variable was post operative pain. The data were analyzed using wilcoxon test with significant level
of α = 0,05. Mean of respondent pain score before intervention was 3,7 and score after intervention
was 2,9. The result showed a significant difference between pretest and posttest (p = 0,005). This
result indicates that there is significant effect of cold compress therapy on post operative pain in
patients ORIF fracture. Nurse was suggested to apply cold compress therapy as one of
interventions to decrease post operative pain in patients ORIF fracture.
