PURPOSE
To gather patient and carer evaluations of a 20 min chair massage treatment provided one afternoon a week in an outpatient waiting area.
METHOD
Information gathered over a year included documented evaluation of chair massage, pre- and post-treatment well-being scores (visual analogue scale).
RESULTS
Both patients (n=224) and carers (n=185) positively evaluated the treatment. Key benefits reported included: relaxation, comfort, time out/treat, distraction, and relief of anxiety. There were significant changes in self-reported well-being score (p=<0.001), but no significant changes between scores for males and females. The changes in well-being scores on occasions (n=3) did not match the positive feedback.
CONCLUSIONS
The findings suggest that the service was appreciated by patients and carers. The project was continued for a further year with internal funding. Further research is warranted to ascertain the added and longer-term value of this intervention.
目的
收集患者和护理人员对每周一下午在门诊候诊区提供的20分钟椅子按摩治疗的评价。
方法
一年多来收集的信息包括对椅子按摩的书面评价、治疗前后的幸福感评分（视觉模拟量表）。
结果
患者（n = 224）和护理人员（n = 185）均对该治疗给予了积极评价。报告的主要益处包括：放松、舒适、休息/享受、分散注意力和缓解焦虑。自我报告的幸福感评分有显著变化（p =<0.001），但男性和女性的评分之间没有显著变化。在三次场合中幸福感评分的变化与积极反馈不匹配。
结论
研究结果表明该服务受到患者和护理人员的赞赏。该项目在内部资金支持下又持续了一年。有必要进行进一步研究以确定这种干预措施的附加价值和长期价值。
