PURPOSE
To determine if lavender aromatherapy can reduce preoperative anxiety in cataract surgery patients.
DESIGN
Single-center prospective randomized placebo-controlled trial.
METHODS
Seventy-five patients awaiting cataract surgery were randomized to lavender essential oil or grape seed oil (control) and administered the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. Vital signs were also recorded.
FINDINGS
Patients in the lavender group showed greater improvements in self-reported anxiety using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (P = .023, two-sample t test). Compared with the control group, the effects of lavender on the reduction of anxiety were statistically significant when adjusting for age, gender, and baseline scores (P = .012, analysis of covariance).
CONCLUSIONS
Lavender aromatherapy reduced anxiety in preoperative cataract surgery patients.
目的
确定薰衣草香薰疗法是否能减轻白内障手术患者的术前焦虑。
设计
单中心前瞻性随机安慰剂对照试验。
方法
将75名等待白内障手术的患者随机分为薰衣草精油组或葡萄籽油组（对照组），并进行状态-特质焦虑量表测试。同时记录生命体征。
结果
使用状态-特质焦虑量表时，薰衣草组患者自我报告的焦虑症状有更大改善（P = 0.023，两样本t检验）。与对照组相比，在调整年龄、性别和基线分数后，薰衣草减轻焦虑的效果具有统计学意义（P = 0.012，协方差分析）。
结论
薰衣草香薰疗法可减轻白内障手术患者术前的焦虑。
