Background: There are limited reports available on preferred chest physiotherapy methods in patients with coronary artery graft (CABG) surgery.
Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare the effect of active cyclic breathing technique (ACBT) and routine chest physiotherapy on pain and respiratory parameters in patients undergoing CABG surgery.
Methods: This randomized clinical trial was carried out from July to November 2018.
Objective: The present study was aimed to compare the effect of the trained and untrained family presence on their anxiety during invasive procedures in an emergency department.
Methods: In this randomized controlled clinical trial, 90 patients who were candidates for receiving invasive nursing procedures were selected in an emergency department based on the inclusion criteria, and then were equally assigned into 3 groups by the random minimization method: A ("presence of the trained family member group "), B ("presence of the untrained family member group "), and C ("absence and untrained family member group"). The anxiety level was measured before and after implementation of the procedure using the State-Trait Inventory (STAI).
Background: Considering the contradictory results on the role of complementary therapies in correcting post-operative side effects, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of acupressure on pain severity in patients undergoing coronary artery graft admitted to a coronary care unit.
Methods: In this double-blind, randomized, clinical trial, 70 patients were selected randomly after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery based on inclusion criteria and then assigned to two groups (35 in acupressure and 35 in control) randomly by the minimization method. The intervention group received acupressure at the LI4 point for 20 minutes in 10-second pressure and 2-second resting periods.
