The SAS scores in the study group were 57.9±4.2, 50.8±4.9, 47.1±5.0 on the day of admission,7 days after operation and 14 days after operation, respectively, while those in the control group were 58.4±3.7, 57.9±5.2, 55.7±6.2. There were significant differences between the two groups after intervention (
