چکیده

مقدمه: هموروئید، از شایع‌ترین مشکلات دوران بارداری می­باشد. توصیه­های اصلاح سبک زندگی با عدم تبعیت بیماران همراه است. خواص درمانی احتمالی روغن نارگیل بر هموروئید مطرح شده، اما شواهد علمی آن گزارش نشده است، لذا مطالعه حاضر با هدف تعیین تأثیر پماد روغن نارگیل بر علائم هموروئید در زنان باردار انجام شد.
روش‌کار: این مطالعه کارآزمایی بالینی در سال 98-1397 بر روی 60 زن باردار مراجعه‌کننده به مراکز خدمات جامع سلامت مشهد انجام شد. واحدهای پژوهش به‌طور تصادفی به دو گروه مداخله و کنترل تقسیم شدند. در گروه مداخله پماد روغن نارگیل 2 هفته و روزی 2 بار، یک اپلیکاتور استفاده گردید، ضمن اینکه به این گروه توصیه­های اصلاح سبک زندگی داده شد. گروه کنترل فقط توصیه‌های اصلاح سبک زندگی را بر اساس دستورالعمل کشوری دریافت کردند. سنجش بهبود علائم هموروئید در روزهای اول، هفتم و چهاردهم با استفاده از مقیاس دیداری (درد، بیرون‌زدگی، خارش و نمره کل علائم هموروئید) صورت گرفت. تجزیه و تحلیل داده­ها با استفاده از نرم‌افزار آماری SPSS (نسخه 16) و آزمون­های من‌ویتنی، تی مستقل و فریدمن انجام شد. میزان p کمتر از 05/0 معنی‌دار در نظر گرفته شد.
یافته‌ها: میانگین نمره درد، بیرون­زدگی، خارش و نمره کلی علائم هموروئید در گروه پماد روغن نارگیل با کاهش قابل توجهی در مقایسه با گروه کنترل همراه بود (05/0>p). در بررسی درون‌گروهی، در گروه پماد روغن نارگیل، نمره درد بر حسب روز سنجش، تفاوت معنی‌داری داشت (001/0>p)، اما در گروه کنترل این تفاوت معنی‌دار نبود (050/0=p).
نتیجه‌گیری: پماد روغن نارگیل بر بهبود علائم هموروئید مؤثر است، لذااستفاده از آن در زنان باردار مبتلا به هموروئید درجه 1 و 2 پیشنهاد می­گردد.

چکیده [English]

Introduction: Hemorrhoids is one of the most common problems during pregnancy. Lifestyle modification recommendations are associated with patients' noncompliance. The potential therapeutic properties of coconut oil on hemorrhoids have been suggested, but its scientific evidence has not been reported, therefore this study was performed with aim to determine the effect of coconut oil ointment on hemorrhoids symptoms in pregnant women.
Methods: This randomized clinical trial was performed on 60 pregnant women referred to comprehensive health services centers in Mashhad in 2018-2019. The subjects were randomly divided into intervention and control groups. In the intervention group, one applicator of coconut oil ointment was applied twice a day for two weeks; they also received lifestyle modification recommendations. The control group only received lifestyle modification recommendations based on national guidelines. The improvement of hemorrhoids symptoms was measured on the first, seventh and fourteenth days using Visual Analog Scale (pain, prolapse, itching and overall score of hemorrhoid symptom). Data were analyzed using SPSS software (version 16) and Mann-Whitney, Independent T and Friedman tests. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: The mean score of pain, prolapse, itching and overall score of hemorrhoid symptoms in coconut oil ointment group significantly decreased compared to the control group (p<0.05). In the intra-group evaluation, in the coconut oil ointment group, the pain score measured by day was significantly different (p<0.001) but in control group this difference was not significant (p=0.050).
Conclusion: Coconut oil ointment is effective in improving the hemorrhoids symptoms, therefore it is recommended for pregnant women with hemorrhoids grade 1 and 2.
