Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of the exercises of progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) on vital signs and anxiety level after endotracheal extubation in open heart surgery. Materials and Methods: This study was carried out as quasi-experimental, pre-test, and post-test with a control group. The study recruited 30 experimental and 30 control group open heart surgery patients, who met the inclusion criteria, from a cardiac and vascular surgery clinic of a university hospital. PMR exercises, which were taught before the surgery, were implemented after the surgery in the intensive care unit simultaneously with endotracheal extubation. The vital signs of the patients were monitored for the first 30 min. The anxiety levels were measured after 30 min of extubation with state anxiety inventory. Results: The lower rates of heartbeat, breathing, arterial blood pressure, and anxiety were observed in the experimental group in all measurements (first 30 min after endotracheal extubation), and the differences were statistically significant in favor of the experimental group (p<0.05). Conclusion:The study showed that the relaxation exercises after endotracheal extubation in open heart surgery patients was effective in improving vital signs and reducing anxiety level. Keywords: Open heart surgery, progressive muscle relaxation, endotracheal extubation, anxiety level ÖZ Amaç: Bu çalışma, açık kalp ameliyatı olan hastalarda endotrakeal ekstübasyon sonrası uygulanan progresif gevşeme egzersizlerinin (PGE) yaşam bulgularına ve kaygı düzeyine etkisini belirlemek amacıyla uygulandı. Gereç ve Yöntem: Ön test -son test kontrol grup tasarımlı yarı deneysel bir çalışma olarak planlanan araştırma, bir üniversite hastanesinin kalp ve damar cerrahisi kliniğine açık kalp ameliyatı uygulamak için kabul edilen ve örneklem özelliklerini karşılayan 60 hasta (30 deney, 30 kontrol) ile gerçekleştirildi. Ameliyat öncesi öğretilen PGE, ameliyat sonrası dönemde yoğun bakım ünitesinde endotrakeal ekstübasyonla birlikte uygulanmaya başlandı. Hastaların yaşam bulguları ilk 30 dakika izlendi. Otuzuncu dakikada durumluluk kaygı düzeyi ölçüldü. Bulgular: Endotrakeal ekstübasyon sonrası ilk 30 dakika süresindeki izlemlerinde, deney grubundaki hastaların arter kan basıncı değerleri, nabız hızı, solunum sayısı ve kaygı düzeyleri değerlerinin kontrol grubuna göre daha düşük olduğu ve aralarında deney grubunun lehine anlamlı farklılık olduğu saptandı (p<0,05).

“…Clients with generalized anxiety disorder frequently show symptoms of depression Chambless and Gillis (1996, p.122) compared three studies of different researchers and found CBT to have greater impact on depression than behavior therapy (Butler et al, 1991); CBT was superior to nondirective therapy but not to applied relaxation (Borkovec &Costello, 1993); further Borkovec et al(1987) showed that there were no significantly superior CBT effects for depression among treatment completers. Further more Arakawa (1997) showed the efficacy of progressive muscle relaxation to reduce nausea, vomiting and anxiety induced by chemotherapy. Somewhat recently Hoyer et al (2009) investigated the efficacy of worry exposure and applied relaxation therapeutic techniques for the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder, while comparing with control group both were found to be effective.…”

The primary complementary and alternative medicine methods that cancer patients frequently use were herbal products, relaxation, hypnosis, acupuncture, acupressure, yoga, meditation, massage, music, reflexology, cryotherapy, and aromatherapy. Nurses need to be knowledgeable about these practices in order to achieve their goal, prevent harmful effects, and abuse of patients. Nurses were expected to develop their practice regarding the use of complementary therapies, determine effective strategies, guide patient to use complementary methods based on evidence, and direct patients/healthy individuals to apply complementary therapies effectively and correctly.Key words: Alternative and complementary therapies; nausea and vomiting; chemotherapy.Kanser hastaları bulantı-kusma gibi tamamen ortadan kaldı-rılamayan semptomlar için, tamamlayıcı tedavi yöntemlerine sıklıkla başvurmaktadırlar. Bu çalışmada, kemoterapiye bağlı bulantı kusma gelişen hastalarda kullanılan tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedavi tipleri açıklanmıştır. Kanser hastalarının semptom kontrolünde sıklıkla başvurduğu tamamlayıcı ve alternatif tedavi yöntemleri; başta bitkisel ürünler olmak üzere gevşeme (relaksasyon), hipnoz, akupunktur, akupressür, yoga, meditasyon, masaj, müzik, refleksoloji, kriyoterapi ve aromaterapidir.
