Abstract
Aim and Background: More than 50% of patients suffer from phantom limb pain after amputation. This study
was conducted to identify the effect of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing on phantom limb pain in
patients with amputation.
Methods and Materials: This quasi experimental study was performed in Yasuj City between 2012 to 2014. A
total of forty (40) patients suffering from phantom limb pain, were selected using sampling and randomly divided
into experimental and control groups. In the experimental group, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing
therapy was performed in twelve (12) sessions. The control group received no intervention. Data were gathered
on phantom limb pain at pretreatment and post-treatment and analyzed using descriptive statistics, T test, Paired
T test and Chi- square.
Findings: The results showed that there is a significant difference between the mean of phantom limb pain
before and after intervention in the experimental group (P<0.001).
Also, the mean of phantom limb pain in the control group after the intervention compared to before intervention,
There was no significant change (P>0.05).
Conclusions: Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing reduced phantom limb pain in patients with
amputation. Therefore, its use as a therapeutic and alleviative method could be suggested for patients suffering
from phantom limb pain.

Abstract
Aims and background: Postoperative pain is a common side effect following surgery that can postpone patient’s discharge from hospital. Pain control in orthopedic patients can significantly reduce joint movement problems and patients can easily get back to normal life. In this study we aimed to study the efficacy of sublingual Buprenorphine in postoperative pain control following orthopedic surgery of the lower limbs. Materials and methods: This double blind clinical trial was conducted on 60 patients referred for orthopedic surgery of the lower limbs. They were in classes I and II of the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA( and they were under spinal anesthesia. Patients were divided into two groups of Buprenorphine (0.4mg, every 8h hours( and control group (Morphine 20mg in 100cc(. This trial was practiced after surgery and in the recovery room. Amount of meperidine usage, pain score and side effects including nausea and vomiting, level of sedation and pruritis were recorded at 1, 8, 16 and 24 hours after surgery. Findings: 60 Patients in the control (Morphine) and Buprenorphine groups were studied. There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of gender distribution (p=0.766(, average age (p=0.350(, weight (p=0.195(, ASA score (p=0.519( and operation time (p=0.510(. Average pain score in the Buprenorphine group was significantly lower than the control (Morphine) group at 8 (p=0.025), 16 (p<0.044) and 24 (p<0.003) hours after surgery. Meperidine usage in the first 24 hours after surgery in Buprenorphine group (38.5±15.60 mg) was significantly lower than the control (Morphine) group (49.33±19.02mg) (p=0.019). There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of side effects (nausea and vomiting, level of sedation and pruritis(. Conclusion: This study showed that Sublingual Buprenorphine administration after orthopedic surgery of the lower limbs can lead to better postoperative pain control in comparison to control group (Morphine PCA pump(. Also it has minimal side effects and is compatible with Morphine in this field.

Abstract
Aims and background: Pain is one of the most common clinical symptoms faced by nurses, so its control and taxis are considered as nursing priorities and In this regard, knowledge, nursing skills and attitude are needed. Heading to this field, this study aimed to investigate the effect of teaching the principles of pain management on knowledge of nurses in the neonatal and pediatric intensive care unit. Materials and methods: This clinical trial study was carried out on nurses working in Neonatal and pediatric intensive care units of Motahari Hospital in Jahrom within year 1396. The nurses working in these parts were selected by census method and then divided into two intervention and control groups for the workshop randomly. This study was carried out in two stages. At first, the researcher had a questionnaire about pain management knowledge for all personnel. In the second stage, nurses were randomly divided into two groups: control and intervention; participating in a workshop on pain assessment and control methods, a questionnaire was completed by the personnel one month later. Data were analyzed using SPSS 21 software. Finding: The results of the research showed that the mean score of knowledge in the test group was significantly higher than the pre-test group (P <0.001). Also, in the stage of postoperative and post-test, the two groups showed significant differences in knowledge (P <0.001). Conclusion:Results indicated that pain management training workshop was effective on increasing each of the knowledge and practice factors of nurses in the pediatric and neonatal intensive care unit after intervention.

Abstract
Background and Aim: inflammation of the plantar sheath is the most common cause of pain in the lower part of the heel and accounts for about 11% to 15% of all causes of foot pain that require treatment. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of stretching exercises on ankle pain and supination in women with plantar fasciitis.
Materials and methods: 15 patients with plantar fasciitis were randomly selected and placed in two groups, control and experimental, each with a number of 15 people. This study was pre-test and post-test and training interventions were conducted for six weeks under the supervision of the researcher. The visual pain scale was used to evaluate pain and the Brady test was used to evaluate the type of foot structure and the degree of ankle supination. Shapiro-Wilk test was used to check the normality of the data, and paired t and independent t statistical tests were used to check intragroup and outgroup differences in SPSS software version 20 (α ≥0.05).
Ethical Considerations: This study was approved by the ethics committee of research projects (ethics code: IR.ARAKU.REC.1401.014)
Results: The results showed that Stretching exercises have led to the improvement of pain and ankle supination rate (p<0.05); Also, there was a difference between the two groups of stretching exercises and control in both pain and ankle supination variables (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: The findings of the present research showed that the reduction of pain and the improvement of ankle supination in women with plantar fasciitis were significant in the group of stretching exercises compared to the control group, so it can be said that the results obtained from this research are to a large extent It is related to the positive effects of the stretching exercises used. In order to achieve more accurate results, in future research, the effect of these exercises on the improvement of patients with plantar fasciitis should be investigated. Considering the improvement of the measured variables in the exercise group, it is suggested that these exercises be used in the treatment of patients with plantar fasciitis in the future.
