introduction:Nausea is a common symptom of general anesthesia and its control with non-pharmacological methods is one of the most important goals of nursing. one of the ways to increase the quality of nursing care is evidence-based method. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of ambulation according to the evidence-based method on nausea in patients after inguinal hernia surgery.Method:This single-blind clinical trial was conducted on 60 patients who underwent inguinal hernia surgery in Shahrood imam-Hossein-Hospital in 1395. Patients were randomly divided into two groups: test and control.intensity of nausea was measured at 3,6,9 and 12 hours after surgery and before discharge time.The data were analyzed in SPSS16 using Fisher test, likelihood ratio, Kolmogorov Smironov,K2Pearson,K2Friedman,and Wilcoxon.Findings:In first stage(before first ambulation), nausea intensity in experimental group was less than patients of control group(3.30VS3.57). In second stage (before second ambulation), nausea intensity in experimental group was less control group(3.03VS3.53). In third stage (before third ambulation), nausea intensity in experimental group was less than control group(2.73VS3.6).In fourth stage(before fourth ambulation), nausea intensity in experimental group was less than of control group patients(2.96VS3.63). In fifth stage (before discharge) nausea intensity in experimental group was less than patients of control group(2.03VS3.13).Results:according to results,an evidence based procedure is effective in reducing the intensity of nausea following inguinal hernia surgery.Considering the cost and fewer complications and ease of implementation of this method, it can be recommended as a care strategy in reducing nausea.
