Abstract
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of interventions based on Information-Motivation-Behavioral skills on the preoperative anxiety in patients with gynecological malignancies.
MethodsA total of 64 patients with malignant tumor were divided into two groups by random digits table method with 32 cases each. The patients in the two groups received routine nursing. In addition, interventions based on Information-Motivation-Behavioral skills were provided in the intervention group. All patients were investigated by the following indexes such as the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), sleep quality scale, blood pressure and heart rate before and after the intervention.
ResultsAfter the intervention, the SAS scores in the intervention group was (49.47 ± 3.81) points, sleep quality score was (3.66 ±0.97) points, and systolic blood pressure and heart rate were (128.56±5.93) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), (75.09 ± 3.78) beats/min, which were lower than those in the control group (57.38 ± 3.75) points, (5.50 ± 1.50) points, (134.97 ± 7.19) mmHg, (81.34 ± 4.88) beats/min, the differences were statistically significant (t=-8.350--3.887, P<0.05).
ConclusionsThe intervention focused on Information-Motivation-Behavioral Skills can help patients to relieve anxiety, reduce stress response, improve quality of sleep.
