Guided imagery (GI) has been recommended as a mind-body therapy for pain relief following orthopaedic surgery, but little is known about the acceptability of the intervention.
Describe the perceptions of patients undergoing total knee replacement (TKR) surgery regarding the acceptability of a customized GI intervention to promote TKR outcomes.
Narrative and survey data collected during a randomized controlled trial of the GI intervention were analyzed to assess the acceptability of the intervention.
Most participants were satisfied with and actively engaged in the intervention, and they perceived it to be helpful. For the smaller group of participants who did not find the intervention to be acceptable, reasons for dissatisfaction and barriers to engagement were identified.
Guided imagery is an acceptable intervention for many persons undergoing TKR surgery. The results of this study can provide information to further develop a targeted and customized GI intervention for this population.
引导式意象法（GI）已被推荐作为一种用于缓解骨科手术后疼痛的身心疗法，但对于该干预措施的可接受性知之甚少。
描述接受全膝关节置换术（TKR）的患者对一种定制的引导式意象法干预措施促进TKR手术效果的可接受性的看法。
对在引导式意象法干预措施的随机对照试验中收集的叙述性和调查数据进行分析，以评估该干预措施的可接受性。
大多数参与者对该干预措施感到满意并积极参与其中，他们认为该措施有帮助。对于一小部分认为该干预措施不可接受的参与者，确定了他们不满的原因和参与的障碍。
引导式意象法对于许多接受TKR手术的人来说是一种可接受的干预措施。本研究结果可为进一步开发针对该人群的有针对性的定制引导式意象法干预措施提供信息。
