Abstract:
Objective To discuss the effect of mind-body relaxing therapy on the eye pressure and physiological status of patients with glaucoma after surgery.Methods 86 patients with glaucoma were randomly divided into the research group and the control group, each with 43 cases. The control group received conventional medication treatment,while the research group received mind-body relaxing therapy in addition.SCL-90 was used to test two groups' physiological status,and their eye pressure was also measured and compared.Results The total score,average score,positive item quantity,body,press,depression,anxiety,opposition,horror,crankiness and lunacy score of SCL-90 of the research group were respectively (128.98 ±37.08),(1.59 ±0.41),(23.93 ±17.12),(1.35 ±0.81),(1.79 ±0.68),(2.25 ±0.91),(2.23 ±0.92),( 1.68 ± 0.82),(2.32 ± 0.92),( 1.88 ± 0.90),( 1.96 ± 0.92 ),all of which were lower than those of the control group [ ( 154.35 ± 37.82),( 1.88 ± 0.42 ),( 35.92 ± 17.56 ),( 1.90 ± 0.88 ),( 2.25 ± 0.71 ),( 2.88 ±0.95 ),(2.96 ± 0.96),( 2.26 ± 0.88 ),(2.98 ± 0.98 ),( 2.59 ± 0.93 ),(2.66 ± 0.95 ) ],and the differences were statistically significant ( u =3.14,3.24,3.21,3.01,3.07,3.14,3.60,3.16,3.22,3.60,3.47,respectively;P <0.01 ).The eye pressure of the research group was (18.10± 2.56)mm Hg,obviously lower than that of the control group which was ( 22.20 ± 2.68 ) mm Hg,and the difference was statistically significant ( u =7.25,P < 0.01 ).Conclusions The mind-body relaxing therapy can evidently eliminate patients 'psychological barrier to recover their eye pressure and increase their confidence in the treatment,so as to promote their recovery and maintain their health to the maximum extend.
