PURPOSE: To explore the effectiveness of an educational video intervention in lowering periprocedural anxiety among Jordanian patients hospitalized for cardiac catheterization (CATH). There are many potential reasons of anxiety related to CATH including involvement of the heart and the actual test procedure. METHODS: A randomized controlled trial took place in a specialized heart institute in Jordan. The sample size was 186 patients who had undergone CATH procedure. Patients anxiety levels were measured by physiological parameters of anxiety (blood pressure, heart rate, and respiratory rate) and by the Spielberger State Anxiety Inventory (SAI). RESULTS: After video education, there was a significant difference in periprocedural perceived anxiety between the groups: preprocedural anxiety levels (M = 39.03, SD = 5.70) for the experimental group versus (M = 49.34, SD = 6.00) for the control, p < .001, and postprocedural perceived anxiety for the experimental group (M = 29.18, SD = 5.42) versus (M = 41.73, SD = 5.41) for the control. CONCLUSION: Providing an educational video intervention about CATH may effectively decrease periprocedural anxiety levels.
