The strata will be formed based on the severity of pain (in three mild, moderate and severe classes) and sex (in two male and female classes) for both groups(intervention and control). Entering the first sample in each of the classes will be by the simple randomization. For subsequent samples, the sum of the samples in the groups will be considered, so that the sample is assigned to a group that that has less sample size. Sampling will continue until the sample size reaches the target, Blinding description: A person who assesses the severity of pain does not know about belonging to the groups. N/A Coronary Artery Bypass. Intervention 1: In the intervention group: after the patient's complete consciousness and extubation of the trachea, which is routinely 6 to 7 hours after the surgery.The severity of the pain will be measured by the researcher's colleague before the intervention. Then one of the researchers who have enough training in acupressure will face the patient and in the LI4 point will be applied acupressure bilaterally for 20 minute period, so that in each minute, 5 pressure periods will be applied at the LI4 point. Each cycle will consist of 10 seconds of pressure and 2 seconds of rest. The applied pressure will be about 3-5 kg, so that the patient feel warmth, pressure and have numbness at that pressure point. Intervention 2: Control group: In the control group, after complete consciousness and ex-tubation of the patient, the severity of pain before the intervention will be measured by the researcher's colleague. Then the researcher will face the patient. At the same pressure point, same as the intervention group, by the same time, the touch without pressure will be applied.
