ABSTRACT

Effect of health education on anxiety of adult patient under going craniotomy.

Craniotomy is an elective neuro surgical procedure.Majority of people

have fear about surgery,post operative complication and out come. Many

studies have shown that pre operative health education reduce post operative

anxiety. Objectives of the study was to find out (1) effect of health education on

anxiety of adult patient undergoing craniotomy and (2) relationship between

anxity and selected variables such as age , sex , level of education , occupation,

and income. The study was conducted in Neuro surgical ICU and Neuro

surgical ward in SCTIMST ,Trivandrum. Sampling technique was alternate

sampling. The sample size was 34. Patients were randomly assigned to

Intervention (patients those seeking health education) and Control group (not

seeking health education). In this study the investigator used standardized

Malayalam version of Speilberger's State Trait Anxiety Inventory , for

assessing the anxiety. Two group pre test and post test design was used.

Individual health education using a self prepared pamphlet was given after

initial assessment. Major finding of the study was patients in the Intervention

group the State anxiety level was reduced both in male and female after surgery

compared than control group.The results support the existing knowledge that

pre operative health education reduces post operative anxiety.

CHAPTER -1

INTRODUCTION

1.1 . INTRODUCTION

Craniotomy is the surgical opemng of the skull to gam access to

intracranial structures. This procedure is done to remove a space- occupying

abnormality such as tumor, cyst or vascular malformation. This procedure may

also be needed on an emergency basis to evacuate a hematoma ,relive

intracranial pressure and reverse a herniation syndrome. In this procedure, a

skull incision is made, the bone flap is elevated , dura is opened , and the tumor

is subjected to biopsy or resection. (Hickey, 2003).

Craniotomy is indicated for the diagnosis or treatment of intracranial

lesions demonstrated by neuroradiology , where there is adequate clinical .

indication with modem diagnostic facilities, truly exploratory procedures will

rarely be needed.

Contra - indication may be the nature of lesion, the speed of progression

symptoms and also the patients age and fitness. The few absolute

Page 13: EFFECT OF HEALTH EDUCATION ON ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING ...dspace.sctimst.ac.in/jspui/bitstream/123456789/1569/1/171.pdf · ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING CRANIOTOMY

contraindications include overwhelming infections or abnormalities of blood

coagulation. Poor neurological condition of the patient need to be a

contraindication, since surgical treatment of an intracranial mass will usually be

required before improvement can occur.

1.2. Background of the study

There are many reasons for performing a craniotomy. It may be done as

an emergency following a head injury or brain hemorrhage. This is to remove

blood clots, which are pressing on the brain. As a planned procedure , a

craniotomy may be essential to remove a tumor or to clip an aneurysm. All

operations carry some risks. Proper assessment of the postoperative status of the

patients requires an awareness of the patient's symptoms, so that a comparison

may be made between the pre operative and postoperative conditions. In case of

craniotomy the complications occurs intra -operatively, during the immediate

and late postoperative period. The complications after craniotomy includes

increased intra cranial pressure, vasospasm, cerebral infraction, hydrocephalus,

pneumonia, pulmonary embolism, diabetic insipidus, syndrome of inappropriate

anti diuretic hormone (SIADH) , wound infectios meningitis , seizure, cranial

nerve damage and functional disability. The late post operative complications

includes wound infections, seizure, meningitis, and functional disabilities . Most

of the patients are very much anxious due to complications. So reduction of pre

operative anxiety is widely accepted as part of nursing care. (Johnson 1971).

SCTIMST is one of the major center in India where craniotomy is done

successfully. More than 100 cases were done in a month.

Johnson (1971) suggested that accurate pre operative information builds

accurate expectation of surgery which will infact reduce emotional arousal

during surgery. Anxiety is one of the most common emotions seen in health

care setting. Care of anxious client is one of the grater challenges as nurses.

Anxiety is a universal experience and an unavoidable aspect of everyone

life. Mainly anxiety is three types that are mild, moderate, and severe. The

responsibility for giving pre operative information o reduce anxiety is

recognized as a necessary and ongoing responsibility of the nurse as a source of

emotional support ( Oakely 1984)

Anxiety is one of the maJor problem in psychology and result in

considerable functional impairment. State and trait anxiety is one of the most

common features of anxiety. State anxiety refers to emotional reaction

characterized by subjective conscious feeling . of tension, apprehension,

nervousness and worry. In contrast , Trait anxiety deals with individual

difference in the dangerous, and in the frequency that state anxiety is

experienced. Statistics very widely but most agree that anxiety disorders are

3

Page 15: EFFECT OF HEALTH EDUCATION ON ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING ...dspace.sctimst.ac.in/jspui/bitstream/123456789/1569/1/171.pdf · ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING CRANIOTOMY

more common in women than in men. Medical illness and invasive procedure

are often associated with anxiety.

The most common used psychometric self-report inventory is probably

Speilberger's State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI - Speilberger's eta1.,1970

).State and Trait anxiety are analogus in certain respect to kinetic and potential

energy. People who differ in trait anxiety will show corresponding difference in

state anxiety depending on the extent to which each of them perceives a specific

situation as psychologically dangerous or threatening and this is greatly

influenced by each individual's past experienced.

1.3. Need and significance of study

Patients who are admitted for craniotomy are found to be more anxious

about the outcome of surgery . These patients also fear about the complications

and are in high emotional stress before surgery. The patient's anxiety level is an

indication of post operative problem . Pre operative anxiety increase the chance

of post operative pain, analgesic consumption, and hospital stay and recovery.

In this situation pre operative teaching plays an important role in

relieving anxiety and reducing anxiety related complications. The patients ask

too many questions about surgery, ICU staying, complications follow up

recovery etc. Hence the investigator felt the need to conduct the study about the

effectiveness of preoperative teaching on anxiety.

CHAPTER 11

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

Review of literature is an important aspect of any research project from

beginning to end. It gives character insight in to the problem and helps in

selecting methodology, developing and also analyzing data. With these in view

an intensive review of literature has been done.

The review of literature relevant to this study IS presented m the

following section.

2.1 Studies for reducing anxiety by pre operative education.

2.2 Studies on craniotomy.

2.1 Studies for reducing anxiety by pre operative education.

Andrews et al;(l999) investigated the impact of treatment information

package on patients being monitored for possible surgical treatment for

temporal lobe Epilepsy.! 00 patients were randomly assigned to eighter a high or

low information preparation condition. Level of anxiety were tested soon after

admission. by using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). The

State -Trait Anxiety Inventory(STAI),and a newly devised questionnaire to

assess specific concern and anxieties of epilepsy patients presenting for

monitoring and surgery. Patients assigned to the high- information condition

8

Page 20: EFFECT OF HEALTH EDUCATION ON ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING ...dspace.sctimst.ac.in/jspui/bitstream/123456789/1569/1/171.pdf · ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING CRANIOTOMY

were exposed to an intervention package ,which included v1ewmg a video

depicting two separate interviews with patients who had undergone surgery as

vvell as an information package ,which described the various tests that the

patient would undergo in the course of the monitoring procedure . Patients

assigned to the low - information group were given information that the hospital

provided to all patients in there care. All subjects were then retested on anxiety

levels a few days later. Those in the high - information group showed a

significant in anxiety and depression levels compared with those in low

information group.

Sjoling et al; (2003) observed that specific information given prior to

surgery can help patients obtain better pain relief after total knee

arthroplasty(TKE). Objectives were to study the impact of pre- operative

information on state and trait anxiety,satisfaction with pain management and

satisfaction with nursing care. The study was an intervention study with two

group of equal size (n=30) . The intervention group was given specific

information , while control group received routine information. Pain

assessments were made pre operatively and first three post operative days using

Visual Analogue Scale(VAS). The result of this study suggested that

information influenced the experience of pain after surgery and related

psychological factors. The post operative pain declined more rapidly for

Page 21: EFFECT OF HEALTH EDUCATION ON ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING ...dspace.sctimst.ac.in/jspui/bitstream/123456789/1569/1/171.pdf · ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING CRANIOTOMY

patients in the treatment group, the degree of pre operative state anxiety was

lower and they were more satisfied with the post operative pain management.

Asilioglu and Celik ;(2004) the purpose of this experimental study was to

evaluate the effect of pre operative teaching method on anxiety levels of the

patients. This study consisted of 100 patients having open cardiac surgery.Of

1 00 patients 50 were interventional group and remaining 50 were in the control

group. The patients in the interventional group were given a planned teaching

according to the patient education booklet. Patients in the control group were

informed about only pre and post operative routine, by the purpose . of

comparing anxiety level of the patients in the interventional group and control

group. Anxiety of both group were measured on the 3rd day after the operation

by using Self Evaluating questionnaire for state and trait anxiety inventory

scale. The mean post operative state and trait anxiety score in the control group

was slightly higher than the mean ofthe patients in the intervention group.

Deyirmenjian et al ; (2006) assessed the impact of pre operative patients

education on anxiety and recovery of patients undergoing open heart surgery.

This quasi- experimental study the patients were randomly assigned to a

experimental (n=57) on a control group (n=53) group. The patients in the

experimental group received special education and the control group followed

the routine hospital protocol. Anxiety was assessed using the Beck Anxiety

Inventory Scale (BAIS).Borderline statistical significance was noted for the

10

Page 22: EFFECT OF HEALTH EDUCATION ON ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING ...dspace.sctimst.ac.in/jspui/bitstream/123456789/1569/1/171.pdf · ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING CRANIOTOMY

experimental group in terms of pre operative and post operative anxiety. It is

also reported that the experimental group had a shorter time from awaking to

extubation.

Vanzurren et al ; (2006) studied the potential beneficial effect of an

information brochure on patients undergoing a gastrointestinal endoscopy for

the first time. Patients were randomly assigned to an experimental group

receiving the brochure at least 1st day before the gastroscopy (n=4 7) , or control

group not receiving the brochure (n=48) . The result showed that all

experimental sujects , those receiving the brochure experienced less anxiety

before the gastroscopy and after wards they reported grater satisfaction. Low

bunters (those not seeking information) as compared to high blunters showed

extra reduced anxiety after reading the brochure. High moitores (those seeking

information) receiving the brochure showed reduced anxiety during the

gastroscopy as compared to low monitores.

Nemi-Murola et al ; (2007) studied about patients often suffer from

inadequate treatment of post operative pain. The purpose of this study was to

survey the factors affecting patients · satisfaction with post operative pain

management . A questionnaire with 41 items given on the 3rd postoperative day

to 102 patients undergoing major orthopedic or vascular surgery. Intensity of

pain was assessed using a 10-cm visual analogue scale (VAS) and given

analgesics were recorded. Nurse (n=74) working on the ward received a

11

Page 23: EFFECT OF HEALTH EDUCATION ON ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING ...dspace.sctimst.ac.in/jspui/bitstream/123456789/1569/1/171.pdf · ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING CRANIOTOMY

questionnaire concernmg attitudes towards management of pam. The

questionnaire were returned by 75.5% of the patients and 86.3% of the nurses.

28% of the patients agreed having hard pain during the day of operation and

39.3% during the 1st post operative night. 80% of the patients were satisfied

with pain management their satisfaction correlated significantly with received

the pre operative information. Pre operative interview is very important tool to

receive and give information concerning post operative pain management.

Beapupre et al ; (2004) observed that the effectiveness of a pre operative

exercise\ education program following primary total knee arthroplasty (TKE) .

I 31 subjects were randomized to either the control (n=66) or treatment (n=65)

group 6weeks before TKE surgery. Patients in the treatment group underwent a

4 week exercise \educational program before surgery. All subjects were

assessed 6 weeks pre operatively (before the exercise \education intervention)

immediately pre operatively (after the exercise \education! intervention) ,and

3,6andl2 months after surgery utilizing the western Ontario McMaster

osteoarthritis Index. Subjects were similar in demographic characteristics and

all measures at the baseline assessment.

Davis et al ; (1994) to examine the effects of coping style and type of

preparatory informational treatment on cardiac catheterization patient anxiety.

Pre test - post test randomized control group design. 145 adult patients (107

men and 38 women) scheduled for their first cardiac catheterization. Age range

12

Page 24: EFFECT OF HEALTH EDUCATION ON ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING ...dspace.sctimst.ac.in/jspui/bitstream/123456789/1569/1/171.pdf · ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING CRANIOTOMY

was from 34 to 78 yrs. Patients randomly assigned to monitoring (information

seeking) or blunting (information avoiding ) . Subject's coping style was

assessed by mans of Miller's Behavioral Style Scale. Subjects anxiety was

assessed by means of Speilberger's A-Trait and A-State Inventory.Sbjects

anxiety was assessed before and after intervention (timel&time2) and before

and after catheterization (time3& time4) . Monitors who received the procedural

--sensory modeling video treatment and blunters who received the procedural

modeling video treatment reported significant reductions in A-State anxiety .At

time 4 monitors and blunters in each of the treatment group reported a

significant decrease in A-State anxiety. Female monitors and blunters reported

significantly higher A-State anxiety level than male .

Blay and Donoghue (2005) observed the objectives of randomized

controlled study were to determine if pre admission patients education affects

post- operative pain levels , domiciliary self care capacity and patient recall

following a laproscopic cholecystectomy (LC) .Sampling is 93 elective

Lcpatients. Participents were randomized to receive the standard pre admission

program (SP) or an individualized , education intervention (EI). A pre -

operative questionnaire was administered in the pre admission clinic to

determine participants' knowledge of LC and post operative management.

Telephone follow-up and postoperative questionnaire were conducted

approximately 14 days post discharge. EI participants experienced lower pain

13

Page 25: EFFECT OF HEALTH EDUCATION ON ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING ...dspace.sctimst.ac.in/jspui/bitstream/123456789/1569/1/171.pdf · ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING CRANIOTOMY

levels and significantly grater recall of provided information . However no

significant difference were found between the control and intervention group for

domiciliary self-care. Pre education intervention helps reduce post operative

pain levels following LC and significantly increases patients' knowledge of self

care and complication mnagement.

Lilja et al ; (2003) evaluate the effects of extended pre operative

information , given by anesthetic nurses, on pre operative stress in patients

operated on for breast cancer or total hip replacement (THR) .46 consecutive

patients scheduled for surgery for breast cancer and 55 for THR , were

randomized in to two groups which were given different modes of pre operative

information . Patients in the controlled group were informed about pre and post

operative routine by ward nurse . Patients in the intervention group were given

extend formalized information by an anesthetic nurse . Wilcoxon rank sum test

was used to show relations between variables . There were no significant

differences between the intervention group and control group for patients with

breast cancer or for the patient with THR . Breast cancer patients in the

intervention group were significantly more anxious than THR patients in the

intervention group (p<O.Ol). Breast cancer patients in the intervention group

showed the highest anxiety scores on the Hospital Anxiety and Depression

Scale (HADS) on the day of surgery . This information may reflect an increased

information may have negative effect on breast cancer patients , resulting in an

increased state of anxiety.

2.2 Studies on Craniotomy.

Brackmann et al ; (2007) conducted a to evaluate the long-term facial

function of patients after translabyrinthine vestibular schwannoma [VS] surgery

and identify factors that influence these outcomes. A retrospective review was

performed that included 580 consecutive patients who underwent

translabyrinthine craniotomy for removal of VS. A total of 512 patients who

underwent primary microsurgical treatment of sporadic unilateral VS met

inclusion criteria. Patient and tumor characteristics as well as perioperative

complications are described. Perioperative and long-term facial function were

evaluated in 392 patients who had at least 1-year follow-up. Complication rates

after translabyrinthine craniotomy for VS are low. Patients with smaller tumors

have significantly better postoperative facial function than those with larger

tumors. Excellent long-term facial function can be expected in the majority of

patients who undergo microsurgical removal of VS via the translabyrinthine

approach. Alternative treatment strategies may need to be developed for the

treatment ofVS > 3.5 em in orderto maximize postoperative facial function.

Kourbeti et al ; (2007) conducted a retrospective cohort study to

determine the incidence, bacteriological features, and risk factors for

postcraniotomy meningitis. Patients older than 18 years who underwent

15

nonstereotactic craniotomies between January 1996 and March 2000 and who

survived for more than 7 days were included. Operations for placement of burr

holes and shunts were excluded. Records of the first 30 postoperative days were

abstracted. Host factors, types of craniotomy, and pre- and postoperative

variables were evaluated as risk factors for meningitis. Among 453 patients,

there were 25 cases of meningitis. Eight out of 12 culture-positive cases were ·

the result of gram-positive cocci. 420 (92%) patients received antibiotic

prophylaxis, most commonly a first-generation cephalosporin. In multivariate

analysis, the risk of meningitis was increased by surgery that entered a sinus ,

and increases in the number of days of external ventricular drainage and

intracranial pressure monitoring. Access of upper airway bacteria to the surgical

wound, host factors as expressed by the American Society of Anesthesiologists

score, and duration of device-related postoperative communication of the

cerebrospinal fluid and the environment are major risk factors for postoperative

meningitis after craniotomy.

Curry et al ; (2005) conducted a study was to determine the risk of

adverse outcomes after contemporary surgical treatment of meningiomas in the

US and trends in patient outcomes and patterns of care. The study were

performed a retrospective cohort study by using the Nationwide Inpatient

Sample covering the period of 1988 to 2000. Multivariate regression models

with disposition end points of death and hospital discharge were used to test

16

patient, surgeon, and hospital characteristics, including volume of care, as

outcome predictors. Multivariate analyses revealed that larger-volume centers

had lower mortality rates for patients who underwent craniotomy for

meningioma. Adverse discharge disposition was also less likely at high-, and a

significantly less frequent adverse discharge disposition. In-hospital mortality

rates decreased 61%, from 4.5% in 1988 to 1.8% in 2000. Reductions in the

mortality rates were largest at high-volume centers (a 72% reduction in the

relative mortality rate at largest-volume-quintile centers, compared with a 6%

increase in the relative mortality rate at lowest-volume-quintile centers). The

number of US hospitals where craniotomies were performed for meningiomas

increased slightly. The mortality and adverse hospital discharge disposition

rates were lower when meningioma surgery was performed by high-volume

providers.

Mark Bernstein ; (200 1) observed that routinely performed awake

craniotomy for intra-axial brain tumors with low complication rate and low

resource utilization. A pilot study was initiated to assess the feasibility of

performing craniotomy for tumor resection as an outpatient procedure. A

rigorous protocol was developed and adhered to, based around the patient's

arrival at hospital at 6:00 am, undergoing image-guided awake craniotomy with

cortical mapping, and being discharged by 6:00 p.m. During the 48 month

period from December 1996 to December 2000, 245 awake craniotomies were

performed and of those, 46 patients were entered into the outpatient craniotomy

protocol. Pathology in the 46 intent-to-treat group was: 21 metastasis, 19

glioma, and six miscellaneous. Four patients required conversion to inpatients

and one patient was readmitted later the same evening due to headache. Thus

41146 patients successfully completed the protocol (89%). There were five

complications in the 46 intent-to-treat group (10.9%). Outpatient craniotomy for

brain tumor is a feasible option which appears safe and effective for selected

patients, the procedure may be psychologically less traumatic to patients than

standard craniotomy for brain tumor.

Chitra Thirunal Institute Of Medical Science and Technology. In this study the

investigator used standardized Malayalam version of Speilberger's State Trait

Anxiety Inventory of assessing pre operative anxiety and to assess post

operative anxiety which contain 36 questions.

3.8. Description on tool :

The tool used in present study consists of the following parts:­

Part -1

This part contains demographic data including age, sex, education, occupation

and income.

Part -11

It consists of Speilberger' s State Trait Anxiety Inventory which is popular

instrument for measuring anxiety. It has been. used previously in many

researches to assess emotional reaction to surgical procedure. This inventory

. consists of 36 self reporting items and has two parts. The State anxiety and Trait

anxiety.

Part -111

Patients were randomly assigned to experimental and intervention group.

After assessing the anxiety level, health education was given to the intervention .

3.7 Pilot study :

Pilot study was conducted from September 15th to 25th, 2008. The aim of

the study was to assess the effect of health education on anxiety of adult patients

undergoing craniotomy. The study was conducted among five patients, both

male and female between the age group of 18 to 60 yrs. The tool used is State

Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) with 36 questions. The questions were asked in

Malayalam. Total time period required was 30 minutes for a patient. Pilot study

reveled that post test anxiety score was lower than pre test anxiety. After

making necessary correction in the scoring part of the tool the main study was

conducted.

3.8 Data collection :

For data collection formal permission was obtained from the authorities. Period

of data collection from September 2008 to October 2008. Data was collected

from patients in the Neurosurgical ward and Neurosurgical ICU.

The investigator first introduced herself and explained need and purpose study

to the patients. After getting consent from the patients, anxiety level of the

patients was assessed with the help of Speilberger's State Trait Anxiety

Inventory. After this health education was given to patients in the intervention

group by using self-preparing health education pamphlet. The patients were also

given the opportunities to clear their doubts. In case of experimental group

health education is not received. On the 1st post operative day, both groups

(Intervention and control group) anxiety were assessed by using the same

structured anxiety scale, to find out the effectiveness of health education in

reducing the anxiety level .

3.9 Plan of analysis :

A plan of data analysis was developed by the investigator after the pilot

study. A master sheet was prepared with the score obtained in the STAI.

(Descriptive statistics is used to analyses the data).

CHAPTER IV

Analyse and interpretation of data

This chapter presents the analysis and interpretation of data collected

from 34 patients who underwent craniotomy at SCTIMST , Trivandrum.

Analysis is a process of organizing and synthesizing in such a way that project

elicit meaning from collected data. The aim of the research study was to assess

pre operative anxiety of patients undergoing craniotomy and to assess the effect

of pre operative teaching on the anxiety level of patients undergoing

craniotomy.

Interpretation refers to the process of making sense of the results and of

examining the implication of the findings with in a broder content.

The data were coded , entered in Microsoft excel and analysed using epi info

CHAPTER- V

SUMMARY , CONCLUSION , DISCUSSION AND RECOMENDATION

A brief account of the study is given in this chapter which cover objectives,

findings of the study, and possible application of the result. Recommendations

for future research and suggestions for improving the present study are also

presented.

5.1 . Summary

The study was conducted with the objectives to assess pre- operative

anxiety before health teaching and and to assess post - operative anxiety. The

structured State-Trait Anxiety Inventory was for collecting data from 34

samples.

A review of related literature helped the investigator to get a clear

concept about the project topic undertaken , as well as to develop tools,

methodology of the study and decide the plan for data analysis.

A standardized Speilberger's State Trait Inventory was used for assessing

the anxiety level of the patients with a standardized questionnaire , health

education on surgery, ICU stay, complication and outcome was given.

35

Page 47: EFFECT OF HEALTH EDUCATION ON ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING ...dspace.sctimst.ac.in/jspui/bitstream/123456789/1569/1/171.pdf · ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING CRANIOTOMY

The study was conducted in SCTIMST , Trivandrum ,during the period

of Sep - Oct 2008. The sample comprised of 34 patients, both males and

females. Between the age group of 18 -75 years. Tool used for data collection

patients demographic data, Speilberger's State Trait Anxiety Inventory. State

anxiety scale consisted of 18 questions and Trait anxiety scale consisted of 18

questions.

5.2. The major findings of the study

The study results showed that there was a statistically significant

reduction in the mean post state craniotomy anxiety of the samples .

5.3. Limitation

1. Study was limited to the SCTIMST ,Trivandrum

2. Study was conducted in a single group of patients admitted for craniotomy.

3. The study was conducted only among patients who could read Malayalam.

5.4 . Discussion

Assessment of anxiety level of patients who undergoing craniotomy is

very impmiant , because these patients are anxious about surgery, ICU stay ,

complication, outcome etc.

According to Andrewes et al ; (1999) Asilioglu and Celik (2004)

VanZuuren et al ; (2006) Nemi-Murola et al ;(2007) pre operatively patients had

36

Page 48: EFFECT OF HEALTH EDUCATION ON ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING ...dspace.sctimst.ac.in/jspui/bitstream/123456789/1569/1/171.pdf · ANXIETY OF ADULT PATIENTS UNDERGOING CRANIOTOMY

higher level of anxiety than post operatively. The findings of the present study

is comparable to these results. The present study showed that health education

seemed to decrease the anxiety level post operatively

5.5. Recommendations

The following recommendations are made on the basis of present study.

• Similar study can be reported by increasing the sample size.

• True experimental study to assess the effectiveness of pre operative

teaching on anxiety level of patients before and after surgery can done.

5.6 . Conclusion

Based on the findings of the study , the following conclusion were drawn.

With this limited number of patients it is not possible to generalize

findings.

There is need for study studies involving more number ofpatients

validate the findings.
