Detailed Description

This was an experimental study on 70 subjects with 35 subjects treated with Valsalva maneuver and 35 subjects treated as control from January to April 2019. Research subjects were female who underwent brachytherapy for the first time with spinal anesthesia. The effectiveness in reducing pain was assessed by using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and patient movement during the surgery.
