About this trial

This study was planned to examine the effects of progressive relaxation exercise on anxiety, comfort, pain and physiological parameters in patients undergoing coronary angiography. The data of the study will be collected using the Descriptive Characteristics Questionnaire Form, State and Trait Anxiety Inventory, Perianesthesia Comfort Questionnaire, Visual Analog Scale (VAS), Vital Signs Follow-up Form, Complication Follow-up Form and Progressive Relaxation Exercise Application Guidelines.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Anxiety level

This inventory, which consists of a total of 40 items, is analyzed in two separate sections: The first part is the State Anxiety Inventory, which consists of 20 items, and the individual answers this section with his/her current feelings. The second part is the Trait Anxiety Inventory, which also consists of 20 items, and the individual answers this section with the feelings they have felt in the last 7 days.

Time frame
30 minutes after angiography
2

Comfort level

The scale, which is based on the concept of comfort, consists of a total of 24 items, 12 of which question the comfort status of the individual before and after the surgical intervention, 12 of which question positive and 12 of which question negative experiences.

Time frame
30 minutes after angiography
3

Pain level

Pain will be assessed with the Visual Analog Scale. This scale consists of a 10 cm line with values between 0 and 10. The beginning of the line (number 0) indicates "no pain", while the end of the line (number 10) indicates the most severe pain.

Time frame
30 minutes after angiography

Secondary outcomes

1

Blood pressure to be assessed with monitor

The patient's blood pressure will be measured from the brachial artery with a bedside monitor and the result will be recorded in mmHg.

Time frame
30 minutes after angiography
2

Pulse to be assessed with monitor

Heart rate will be measured with a bedside monitor that can be measured from a finger and recorded as beats/min.

Time frame
30 minutes after angiography
3

Respiratory rate

Respiratory rate will be measured by counting the number of inspirations and expiration from the patient's chest movements.

Time frame
30 minutes after angiography
