About this study

Official title: The Effect of Breathing Exercise on Anxiety, Pain and Vital Signs in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography: A Randomised Controlled Study

This randomised controlled trial will be conducted to evaluate the effect of breathing exercise on anxiety, pain and vital signs in patients undergoing coronary angiography before angiography.

Hypotheses of the study; H11: The anxiety level of the patients who underwent breathing exercise is lower than the patients in the control group.

Read more

H12: The pain level of the patients who underwent breathing exercise is lower than the control group H13: The vital signs of the patients who underwent breathing exercises are within normal limits compared to the control group.

In the study, there will be an intervention group in which breathing exercise will be applied and a control group in which no intervention will be applied.

Data will be collected with the pre-test data collection form half an hour before the angiography procedure in patients in the intervention and control groups. Patients in the intervention group will be given breathing exercises, while patients in the control group will not be subjected to any intervention. After the angioplasty procedure, data will be collected from the intervention and control groups with post-test data collection forms.

Read the detailed description

In determining the groups; simple randomisation method will be used in order to form the sample in a way to ensure equal number and random distribution of the two groups. Randomisation will be done by using the website (https://www.randomizer.org). In line with the randomisation list; patients who meet the inclusion criteria will be included in the intervention and control groups. Inclusion in the intervention and control groups will be made by the researchers in line with the randomisation list. In order for the responsible researcher to apply breathing exercises; he/she has a breathing techniques coaching certificate. In the research; triple breathing technique (full yogic breathing) and square breathing technique will be used. Patients will be informed about the research and their written and verbal consent will be obtained. Data will be collected with the pre-test data collection form half an hour before the angiography procedure in patients in the intervention and control groups. Patients in the intervention group will be given breathing exercises, while patients in the control group will not be subjected to any intervention. The breathing exercise will be performed as a single session and will last approximately 15-20 minutes. After the angioplasty procedure, data will be collected from the intervention and control groups with post-test data collection forms.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Vital Signs Recording Form-Blood pressure values

    It is a form created by the researcher in which the blood pressure values of the patients are recorded.

    Measured: 30 minutes before coronary angiography

  2. Vital Signs Recording Form-Blood pressure values

    It is a form created by the researcher in which the blood pressure values of the patients are recorded.

    Measured: Within 15 minutes after the angiography procedure is completed and the patient is taken to bed

  3. Vital Signs Recording Form- Saturation

    It is a form created by the researcher in which the saturation values of the patients are recorded.

    Measured: 30 minutes before coronary angiography

  4. Vital Signs Recording Form- Saturation

    It is a form created by the researcher in which the saturation values of the patients are recorded.

    Measured: Within 15 minutes after the angiography procedure is completed and the patient is taken to bed

  5. Vital Signs Recording Form- Pulse values

    It is a form created by the researcher in which the pulse rates of the patients are recorded.

    Measured: 30 minutes before coronary angiography

  6. Vital Signs Recording Form- Pulse values

    It is a form created by the researcher in which the pulse rates of the patients are recorded.

    Measured: Within 15 minutes after the angiography procedure is completed and the patient is taken to bed

  7. Visual Analogy Scale (VAS)

    It is a 10 cm ruler that reflects the minimum and maximum state of pain by using it horizontally or vertically. '0' indicates painlessness and "10" indicates the most severe pain. The patient marks the intensity of pain felt on this ruler.

    Measured: 30 minutes before coronary angiography

  8. Visual Analogy Scale (VAS)

    It is a 10 cm ruler that reflects the minimum and maximum state of pain by using it horizontally or vertically. '0' indicates painlessness and "10" indicates the most severe pain. The patient marks the intensity of pain felt on this ruler.

    Measured: Within 15 minutes after the angiography procedure is completed and the patient is taken to bed

  9. State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-I)

    The scale developed by Spielberg et al. (1964) was adapted into Turkish by Öner and Le Compte (1974-1977). The reliability of the scale is determined between 0.83 and 0.92 and it requires the person to understand his/her situation at certain times and conditions and to mark one of the preferences '1 (Not at all), 2 (A little), 3 (Very), 4 (Completely)' according to its severity. The total score obtained from the scale varies between 20-80 and 20-39 indicates mild anxiety level, 40-59 indicates moderate anxiety level, 60-79 indicates high anxiety level and 80 points indicates panic anxiety level.

    Measured: 30 minutes before coronary angiography

  10. State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-I)

    The scale developed by Spielberg et al. (1964) was adapted into Turkish by Öner and Le Compte (1974-1977). The reliability of the scale is determined between 0.83 and 0.92 and it requires the person to understand his/her situation at certain times and conditions and to mark one of the preferences '1 (Not at all), 2 (A little), 3 (Very), 4 (Completely)' according to its severity. The total score obtained from the scale varies between 20-80 and 20-39 indicates mild anxiety level, 40-59 indicates moderate anxiety level, 60-79 indicates high anxiety level and 80 points indicates panic anxiety level.

    Measured: Within 15 minutes after the angiography procedure is completed and the patient is taken to bed

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Dec 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Vital Signs Recording Form-Blood pressure values (time frame: 30 minutes before coronary angiography). The study lists 10 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Dec 2024.
