Abstract
The main aim of the study is to assess the effect of progressive muscle relaxation therapy on physical parameter and anxiety among patient with myocardial infarction admitted at selected hospitals of Durg (C.G). The study was conducted at B.M Shah Hopsital and K. Gurunath Cardiac Hospital for patient with myocardial infacrtion.Quasi experimental pretest posttest control group design was adopted for this study. Convenient sampling technique was used to select the study participants. The patient with myocardial infarction was assigned to experimental group (n=23) and the other to the control group (n=23). Progressive muscle relaxation therapy was given for 20 minutes once daily in the morning between 6-8AM for 7 days. Physical parameter and anxiety measurements were taken from the first day and 7 day and was documented. The study showed a significant reduction of physical parameters mean blood pressure from 5.75 to 5.5 mm of Hg, for pulse 5.5 to 5, for respiration 7 to 5.7, and SPO2 7 to 5.8. calculated ‘t’ value was greater than the table value at 0.001 level of significance. Level of anxiety before and after progressive muscle relaxation among the experimental group was 50and 44.5. respectively. Standard deviation was 7.0, 6.6 and the calculated ‘t’ value was 3.4. While comparing with table value, it showed that the calculated ‘t’ value was greater than the table value at 0.001 level of significance.Hence it is concluded that progressive muscle relaxation therapy is an effective measure to maintain the level of physical parameters and reduce the level of anxiety among patient with myocardial infarction at selected hospitals of Durg (C.G).
