No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Preoperative anxiety is common in outpatient procedures and can negatively impact physiologic stability and recovery. Non-pharmacologic interventions may offer a safe alternative to traditional anxiolytics. This study utilizes a 7 minute noninvasive paced breathwork strategy that cues patients to slow their breathing to 6 times per minute. Physiologic parameters, such as blood pressure, heart rate, and respiratory rate will be compared pre and and post intervention, as well as recovery room time.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

The intervention is a noninvasive vibratory breathwork strategy, paced to 6 times per minute, and utilized for 7 minutes, in the preprocedure holding room. This is meant to cue the patient to breath more slowly and calm the patient down before the procedure without pharmaceutical intervention.
