Objective To evaluate the effect of emotional freedom technique (EFT) on the levels of perceived stress, anxiety and depression in cancer patients. Methods Fifteen cancer patients received the intervention of EFT once per day for one week. The effect was evaluated with the Chinese version of perceived stress scale (CPSS), self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and self-rating depression scale (SDS) before and after the intervention. Result The total scores of SAS, CPSS and SDS after the intervention were significantly lower than those before the intervention (P<0.01). Conclusion EFT can effectively reduce the levels of perceived stress, anxiety and depression in cancer patients.
