SUMMARY:

In order to improve the thirst problem, the technique of providing a little volume of cold liquid in the oral cavity to lubricate the mucosa is used. Therefore, interventions such as iced or mentholated popsicles, menthol chewing gum, wet gauze with cold saline solution, cold water for gargling, and frozen gauze with saline solution are the main methods used to stimulate thirst quenching in patients during the period preceding the surgery. This study aims to evaluate the effects of the use of menthol popsicle in the relief of postoperative thirst in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy in an oncology hospital. This is a randomized, controlled, single-blind clinical trial with a quantitative approach that complied with the standards recommended by the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials. This study was registered on the Brazilian Clinical Trials Registry platform. The present study was carried out in the surgical ward of Hospital Doutor Luiz Antônio da Liga Norte Riograndense Contra o Câncer, located in the city of Natal, Rio Grande do Norte. The population consisted of male patients undergoing elective radical prostatectomy who were in the immediate postoperative period. The sample has probabilistic and simple random characteristics. The study consisted of two groups: a control (CG) and an experimental (EG). The CG consisted of patients who received popsicle without the addition of the mentholated substrate and the EG of patients who received the popsicle with the addition of the mentholated substrate of 0.05%. The instrument for data collection is divided into three parts: 1) Patient identification, clinical and sociodemographic data; 2) Data regarding the surgical procedure and anesthetic process; 3) Data regarding thirst intensity using the Numerical Scale (EN) and thirst discomfort using the Perioperative Thirst Discomfort Scale (EDESP). Thirst must be characterized and treated appropriately, especially in the surgical patient, to provide comfort and pain relief, as this sensation has a relevant impact on patient satisfaction and can have a negative impact on anesthetic recovery, especially in the postoperative period. immediate. It is noteworthy that the outcomes were positive during the research, with few reports of complications related to the use of interventions to manage thirst.
