Background and Purpose: Cardiac catheterization is one of the most common diagnostic and therapeutic methods of cardiovascular diseases. The present study was conducted to determine the effect of guided imagery on patients’ anxiety awaiting cardiac catheterization.
Materials and Methods: This interventional study(randomized trial) was carried out on 62 patients undergoing coronary angiography for the first time in vasey hospital of Sabzevar in 2013. .In the case group ,guided Imagery method(a method of relaxation) was performed Information was collected via a State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and an anxiety standard questionnaire. Data analysis was done using SAS 9.1 and SPSS 16 statistical softwares.
Results: The average age of participants in this study was 57.06 ±8.9 years. 25 participants (40.32%) were female and 37 (59.67%)were male. in the case group , mean score of State-Trait Anxiety decreased significantly in comparison to the control one after the intervention. (p

Background and aims: Many patients with chronic renal failure are fatigue due to disease process and long-term treatment with hemodialysis. Because of very different side effects of medication, using complementary methods seems to be reasonable way to reduce fatigue in hemodialysis patients. This study aimed to effect of Benson relaxation on fatigue in hemodialysis patients.
Materials and methods: The present research is an experimental controlled trial study conducted on 65 hemodialysis patients selected from Vasei Sabzevar Educational hospital in 2013. Patients were selected using convenience sampling method according to inclusion and exclusion criteria and then were divided randomly into two groups( 33 patients) in experimental and (32 patients) in control group. The experimental group received Benson relaxation for 15 minute, twice a day during one month. control group received no intervention. Data-collecting instruments included demographic information form and Brief Fatigue Inventory (BFI) questionnaire were completed before, 2 and 4 weeks after intervention. Data were analyzed by means of SPSS-11/5 and SAS 9.1 statistical software using descriptive statistics, T test, Chi-square, Mann-Whitney Test and generalized estimation equations.
Results: Mean score of fatigue in the experimental group was 6/97± 0/84, 5/25± 1/07and 3/92 ± 1/11 before intervention, after two weeks and four weeks later, respectively. Analysis of the data revealed a significant difference between the mean score of fatigue of before and after intervention in the experimental group(P
