| Summary: | Background and Objectives: Coronary angiography can cause a high degree of anxiety in patients. Regarding the effect of pre-angiography education on the anxiety level of patients, nocertain investigation was found considering the effect of video education in native language. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of video education based on the patientchr('39')s native language on the anxiety level of coronary angiography candidates.
Methods: In this quasi-experimental study 160 patients hospitalized for coronary angiography were randomly divided into two groups: control (n =80) and experimental (n =80) in Imam Khomeini Therapeutic and Educational Center of Ardabil. The data were collected using demographic characteristics questionnaire and Spielbergerchr('39')s state trait anxiety inventory (STAI) questionnaire. For the experimental group, an educational film was presented in Turkish language about the necessary actions before, during and after coronary angiography. The control group only received the routine preparations of the ward. The state anxiety levels in both groups before and after the education were measured and compared. Data were analyzed using Chi-square test, independent T-test and paired T-test. p<0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: In this study, mean of state anxiety in experimental group decreased significantly as compared with control group.
Conclusion: Based on the results of this study, multimedia education in native language was effective on reducing the anxiety of coronary angiography candidates. Therefore, it is recommended to use this method to reduce anxiety in patients before invasive procedures. |
