Brief Summary:
Research methods
1 Data collection and evaluation tools
1 The general data record sheet was self-designed by the research team and the collected content included age gender BMI occupation general family status economic situation history of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases history of anxiety and depression self-rating anxiety scale SAS score blood pressure and heart rate before and after intervention disease diagnosis and severity etc
2 The anxiety was self-scored using the VAS-A 0-10 points with 0 point as no anxiety and 10 as severe anxiety
3 Negative emotional intensity was scored using the subjective unit of disturbance scale SUDS 0-10 points with 0 point as no and 10 points as severe
4 Nursing satisfaction was scored by the self-designed questionnaire 1-5 points 5 points very satisfied 4 points relatively satisfied 3 points satisfied 2 points medium 1 point dissatisfied
2 Intervention method of the control group The control group was given routine nursing After entering the pre-anesthesia room the patients were scored using the VAS-A and those with VAS-A score 5 were considered to meet the inclusion criteria After identity authentication the preoperative precautions and reasons for waiting in the pre-anesthesia room were explained to the patients and answers were provided to the questions raised by the patients After routine nursing VAS-A score was recorded blood pressure and heart rate were monitored and nursing satisfaction was inquired The survey of patient satisfaction with nursing was completed before entering the operating room
3 Intervention method of the experimental group 31 Researcher training Before intervention 4 nurses were trained for 5 d by a nurse with EFT qualification certificate 1 h per day The training content included theoretical knowledge of EFT tapping techniques etc After training two assessments were conducted Only those who scored above 90 points in both assessments could participate in the study
32 Operating instructions The acupoint diagram was distributed to the experimental group by nurses and the essentials and precautions of acupoint tapping were explained The nurses demonstrated and tapped the acupoints on the patients while explaining and then instructed them to tap on their own until they were able to complete the task independently and proficiently For patients with upper limb vein puncture proper fixation and close observation were needed and the flexible nature of the puncture needle that would not affect operations was explained to the patients to eliminate their concerns
33 Intervention content After routine nursing the patients received EFT intervention In addition subjective anxiety was scored blood pressure and heart rate were monitored and nursing satisfaction was surveyed after admission and intervention The specific methods are as follows
1 Preparation stage The patients with VAS-A score 5 meeting the inclusion criteria were in a comfortable position with eyes closed and adopted breathing exercise to relax their whole body The patients were guided to summarize the main current distresses such as fear tension pain surgical prognosis economic burden etc name the caused negative emotions and use the SUDS to evaluate the intensity of negative emotions The patients were asked to recite silently the prompt Although I am very a negative emotional word now I still deeply and completely love and accept myself while tapping
2 Tapping stage The patients were guided to gently massage the sore points on both sides of the body 2-3 fingers below the midpoint of the clavicle with their five fingers together in a clockwise direction while silently reciting the prompt 3 times Then the patients were guided to close their index and middle fingers together and gently tap the Zanzhu Tongziliao Chengqi Renzhong Chengjiang Shufu Dabao and Baihui acupoints successively with their fingertips at 2-3 timess and the force they can bear The prompt was recited silently when tapping each acupoint After 3-5 rounds of tapping 3 deep breaths were taken to re-evaluate the intensity of negative emotions
3 Feedback stage After tapping the patients communicated with the nurses at least once about their evaluated negative emotional intensity score and whether the score was accepted If the tapping effect was not obvious the evaluation was conducted by nurses and the patients were guided to massage the sore points while silently reciting the prompt 3 times To relieve reverse psychological drive tapping was continued until the intensity of negative emotions reduced
