About

This study was planned as a randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of mandala painting on the anxiety of coronary heart patients.

Full description

Patients in the control group will receive routine care.Patiens in the experimental group will receive routine care and mandala painting. Experimental group will paint mandala for 30 minutes/day in the evenings for six consecutive days. In order not to interrupt the duties of the nurse and doctor in the clinic, it was planned for the experimental group to paint mandalas in the evening. Six pre-selected mandalas were planned to be printed separately on A4 paper. Each patient will be given a new mandala each day. At the beginning of the study, six colors will be given to the experimental group (yellow, blue, green, red, purple, brown). It was planned to do it for 6 days, as it was found that painting mandala for more than a week in the studies could reduce the patient's attention. In addition, based on the average hospitalization days of the patients, reaching patients for more than a week will be a problem.
