Methods In this study, eighty patients ready to receive coronary intervention were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group (40 patients in each). The control group were treated with routine percutaneous coronary intervention care, and the experimental group received both comprehensive relaxation training and routine care. The anxiety state and subjective feelings on comprehensive relaxation training in both groups were dynamically investigated via State-Trait Anxiety Inventory questionnaire and subjective feeling questionnaire from pre-operation to 7 days after operation. Results Anxiety levels between two groups showed the similar trend, and there was statistically significance between two groupsin the state anxiety level. The subjective feeling in the experimental group improved. Conclusions The psychological stress in patients receiving coronary intervention surgery maintains at high level form pre-operation to 24h post operation, and comprehensive relaxation training can significantly reduce the level of state anxiety. These patients consider that this simple training shows obvious relaxing effect.
