The universe of the research; patients who are planned to undergo thyroid surgery between 1 December 2020 and 1 December 2021 in the general surgery clinic where the study will be conducted will comprise the patients who meet the inclusion criteria and agree to participate in the study. The research was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study. Block randomization method will be used to determine the experimental and control groups. In order for the groups to be distributed homogeneously, the order produced by a computer program (https://www.randomizer.org/) will be used. Randomization will be done by a biostatistician outside the researcher. Patients who meet the inclusion criteria and agree to participate in the study will be assigned to the experimental and control groups according to the randomization list. Research data will be collected in a hospital's general surgery ward between 1 December 2020 and 1 December 2021. Independent variables of the research; age, gender, educational status, marital status, height, weight, habits and general health parameters were defined as independent variables. The dependent variables of the study are postoperative nausea-vomiting status (number and severity), pain severity (Visual Analog Scale-VAS), and Rhodes nausea-vomiting index score average.
