Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
A random sample of 56 people (n = 28) was calculated for the intervention group (n = 28) for the control group, taking into account inclusion criteria and 95% confidence intervals, a power of 80 %, margin of error ± 4.4% and a maximum proportion of 52.4% of patients in the experimental group that would improve anxiety compared to 47.6% in the control group;The groups of disminiyó of anxiety score not time, in the intervention group the difference between the moments of evaluation of 4.2 points, whereas in the control group are of 1.73 points. The mean of the preoperative anxiety pungence in the post-intervention evaluation was 5 points lower in the intervention group compared to the control group, this difference being

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
here were no statistically significant differences between the study groups in relation to sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. In general it can be said that the participants: by sex they almost have a ratio of a man to a woman, they are between 73 and 76 years old and most of them have family support. Regarding the clinical variables, the antecedents of previous surgeries, non-consumption of anxiolytics, the risk of anesthesia were classified as 2 to 4 on the ASA scale, general anesthesia was used during the procedure. For participants, the major cause of preoperative anxiety is the effects of anesthesia.;Analysis of repeated measures. In this study, 28 patients from the intervention group and 27 patients from the control group completed the two evaluations of the APAIS scale. In the ANOVA model with repeated measures, the W of Machly was 1.0, so sphericity was assumed and the F test was used (F = 14.43, p <0.001) which indicated that there is a linear relationship between the APAIS score and the group. study. The effect size was 0.214. The multivariate model also showed a global difference of 3.1 ± 0.36 points (95% CI: 2.36-3.84) between the two study groups.
