Objective: The objective of this study was to identify the effect of nurse-led pre-operative education in minimizing
the level of anxiety among patients waiting for Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting.
Methods: This experimental study was accomplished at National Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases. Out of 136,
there were 80 patients identified with the presence of anxiety using AKUADS 4 to 6 weeks before CABG. Data were
collected by the primary researcher from July 2016 to December 2016. Patients with anxiety were divided into
experimental and non-experimental groups. After pre-operative education to the experimental group, patients
from both groups were re-assessed for anxiety level one week before CABG.
Result: Data were assessed through non-parametric Wilcoxon sign ranked and Mann Whitney tests. It was found
that anxiety reduced significantly in post-assessment among experimental group participants. No significant
difference was found for pre-anxiety assessment between experimental and non-experimental groups. It was noted
that post assessment anxiety differed significantly between experimental and non-experimental groups.
Conclusion: Pre-operative education was found effective to decrease level of anxiety among patients waiting for
CABG. There was no significant difference between pre and post assessment among patients from nonexperimental group.
