| Sumario: | BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Nowadays because of the complications, allergic reactions and drug resistance of chemical drugs, the researchers have been interested in using traditional medicine. Considering rising incidence of cesarean section and frequency of digestive discomforts after this operation, the aim of this study was to compare Cuminum Cyminum with Milk of magnesia (Mg) in prevention of digestive discomfort after emergent cesarean section.METHODS: This clinical trial study was performed on 150 patients after urgent cesarean section. They were randomly divided into two groups (75 in each group). After beginning of food regimen for prevention of digestive discomforts, syrup of Milk of Mg/ TDS in control group and Cuminum Cyminum/TDS in case group were prescribed. Data were recorded by observation and examination. FINDINGS: In control group versus case group: moderate abdominal distention in 35 cases (46.6%) versus 15 cases (20%), abdominal colic pain in 24 cases (32%) versus 4 cases (5.3%), , heartburn in 40 cases (53.3%) versus 10 cases (13.3%), late gas passing in 30 cases (40%) versus 5 cases (6.6%), late defecation in 10 cases (13.3%) versus 1 case (1.3%) and mean duration of hospitalization (50±3.5 hours versus 36±3 hours) showed statistically significant difference (p<0.05).The differentiation of two group because of severe abdominal distention in 10 cases (13.3%) versus 3 cases (4%), nausea in 6 cases (8%) versus 2 cases (2.6%)and vomiting in 4 cases (5.3%) versus 10 cases (13.3%) was not significant. Two groups from point of effective variables on digestive discomforts were the same. CONCLUSION: Results of this research showed that Cuminum Cyminum in prevention of digestive discomforts after emergent cesarean sections is the same or even more effective than Milk of Mg. |
