Abstract
Purpose: This study was conducted to investigate how information using leaflet will affect anxiety of inpatients undergoing endoscopic examination. Methods: Non-equivalent control group with a pre-post test design was used. Subjects were selected from inpatients of D hospital in B city for endoscopic examination from May 1 to July 31, 2009. Forty subjects were assigned to either control or experimental group. The Leaflet developed by authors was used as an educational material. Johnson's visual analogue scale, blood pressure, and pulse were used to measure anxiety. Results: The experimental group informed with the leaflet showed less subjective anxiety than control group without the leaflet (p=.008). Experimental group informed with the leaflet showed less objective anxiety measured by systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and heart rate than control group without the leaflet (p=.004, .014, and .009, respectively). Conclusion: Giving information using leaflet to the patient before endoscopy may be applicable as a nursing intervention to reduce anxiety. Further studies are needed to generalize the results of this study.
