RESUMEN
Objective@#To investigate the effect of touch combined with acupoint massage on relieving anxiety and pain in patients undergoing oral implant surgery.@*Methods@#Seventy-two patients undergoing implant surgery who were eligible for inclusion were randomized into a treatment group and a control group using the envelope method, 36 in each one. The control group was given routine care, and the treatment group was treated with touch combined with acupoint massage on the basis of routine care for 20 minutes. State Anxiety Inventory (SAI) in the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) was used to measure the intraoperative anxiety status of patients in the two groups. The degree of intraoperative pain was measured by verbal rating scales in both groups.@*Results@#The mean SAI score of the patients in the treatment group and the control group was 36.5±7.6 and 46.6±12.1, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (t=4.219, P<0.05). In addition, the pain levels in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in control group (Z=-2.009, P<0.05).@*Conclusion@#The combination of touch and acupoint massage can effectively alleviate the anxiety and pain of patients and enhance the comfort of patients during oral implant surgery, which further ensure the safe and smooth operation.
