Objective: The study aimed to compare state and trait anxiety, blood
pressure, and heart rate of patients with and without coronary angiography
experience who undergo coronary angiography intervention.
Methodology: This study is cross-sectional comparative research. A total
of 160 patients, including 80 patients undergo for the first time coronary
angiography and 80 patients with at least one experience of coronary
angiography were included in the sample of the study. In the study, data
were collected using 'Patient Information Form' and 'State-Trait Anxiety
Inventory', blood pressure measurement device, and pulse oximeter.
Results: The mean of state anxiety scores of the patients with and without
CA experience were 39.35±5.31 and 39.98±4.04, respectively; (p=0.395).
The mean of trait anxiety scores of the patients with and without CA
experience were 44.73±6.84 and 44.51±6.05, respectively (p=0.826).
There was no statistically significant difference observed in state and trait
anxiety between two groups. Before the CA procedure, the systolic and
diastolic blood pressure average of the patients with CA experience were
statistically higher than those without CA experience (p<0.05).
Conclusion: The anxiety levels of the patients before the CA were
observed to be similar and moderate, regardless of their CA experience. It
was observed that patients with CA experience before CA procedure had
higher systolic and diastolic blood pressures compared to the group
without experience.
