Summary

This research was designed as a pre-test-post-test controlled group randomized controlled interventional study to determine the effect of breathing exercises applied to patients undergoing coronary angiography for the first time on anxiety. Patients were provided with an informed consent form, a personal information form and the Beck Anxiety Scale. The Beck Anxiety Scale was administered to the control group before and after the procedure. In the experimental group, the Beck Anxiety Scale was administered before the procedure, and after providing breathing exercise education and application, the Beck Anxiety Scale was completed after the procedure.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Breathing Exercises

The patients in the intervention group scheduled for angiography were administered the Beck Anxiety Scale, and then they underwent conscious, deep breathing exercises along with synchronized breathing training. The face-to-face teaching and application of the breathing exercises took an average of 15-20 minutes. Additionally, routine treatment was applied. For both the intervention and control groups, the Beck Anxiety Scale was administered again after the completion of the coronary angiography procedure, once stabilization was achieved.

OTHER

no intervention/routine procedure

Beck Anxiety Scale was administered to the control group before coronary angiography. No intervention was performed in between. The routine procedure of the hospital continued. Beck Anxiety Scale was administered again after leaving the procedure.
