Anxiety can be overcome by non-pharmacological anxiety management, for example by relaxation therapy, which is a therapy that is often used to overcome anxiety or negative emotions using various types of relaxation. The purpose of this literature review is to examine the results of the past 10 years of research related to the effect of relaxation therapy on reducing anxiety in post-sectio caesarean mothers. The method used in the preparation of a literature review is to search for several articles by searching through nursing journals, science direct, google scholar, Pubmed, and EBSCO. The results of 8 previous research articles showed that relaxation therapy was effective in reducing maternal anxiety levels. Although there are various types of relaxation techniques autogenic relaxation has a medium-high effect size and is recommended for dealing with anxiety compared to other relaxation techniques

Introduction: Hospitalisation affects patients' well-being. Surgery intensifies negative feelings because of risk of postoperative complications, fear of anaesthesia, and pain associated with surgery. Aim of the research: To analyse the impact of selected determinants (physical activity, self-dependence, and perceived pain) on the mood and well-being of patients treated with surgery. Material and methods: The study included 121 patients who had undergone a laparoscopic surgical operation (80 cholecystectomies and 41 appendectomies). The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT) were applied. Results: Physically active patients presented with significantly better well-being (p = 0.015) and better emotional reaction to a disease (p = 0.017) than those who declared lack of physical activity. The ability to move independently significantly increased the patient's mood (p = 0.030) and the level of emotional reaction to a disease (p < 0.0005). The presence of pain negatively affected the patient's mood (p = 0.032). Patients presented reduced mood and increased level of anxiety. Conclusions: The presence of symptoms associated with surgery, such as pain and decreased physical fitness, negatively affect mood, well-being, and emotional reaction to a disease in patients treated with surgery. A greater degree of self-dependence increases patients' mood, well-being, and emotional reaction to disease. Streszczenie Wprowadzenie: Pobyt w szpitalu zazwyczaj wpływa na samopoczucie pacjentów. Leczenie chirurgiczne nasila negatywne odczucia wynikające z ryzyka wystąpienia powikłań pooperacyjnych, lęku przed znieczuleniem i bólem pooperacyjnym. Cel pracy: Analiza wpływu wybranych czynników (aktywność fizyczna, samodzielność i odczuwany ból) na nastrój oraz samopoczucie pacjentów leczonych chirurgicznie. Materiał i metody: Do badania włączono 121 pacjentów poddanych leczeniu chirurgicznemu z dostępu laparoskopowego (80 cholecystektomii oraz 41 appendektomii) na Oddziale Chirurgii Ogólnej i Onkologicznej w Uniwersyteckim Szpitalu Klinicznym we Wrocławiu. Pacjenci udzielili odpowiedzi na pytania kwestionariusza autorskiego oraz na pytania standaryzowanych kwestionariuszy: the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) oraz the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT). W celu porównania zmiennych zastosowano tablice kontyngencji oraz test c 2. Zależności oceniano za pomocą współczynnika korelacji rangowej Spearmana. Wyniki: Pacjenci aktywni fizycznie mieli znamiennie lepsze samopoczucie (p = 0,015) i lepsze reakcje emocjonalne na chorobę (p = 0,017). Zdolność samodzielnego poruszania się znamiennie poprawia nastrój (p = 0,030) oraz reakcję emocjonalną na chorobę (p < 0,0005). Ból pooperacyjny obniża nastrój (p = 0,032). U chorych po leczeniu chirurgicznym stwierdzono obniżenie nastroju i zwiększenie natężenia lęku.
