Psychological and Moral Factors for Elderly in Their Adaptation to Surgical Procedures: A Quasi-Experimental Study

Most people fear surgery, even if it may save lives. Patients may fear hospitalization for surgery, causing anxiety. Preoperative nerves are prevalent. The main objective is to assess adaptation mechanisms grade (AMG) in preoperative surgery patients, to identify the relationship between AMG and selected variables such as age, gender, schooling level, employment, surgery procedure, and Mann-Whitney U test, to develop guidelines for preoperative patients for anxiety relief. The deliberate sampling strategy was used in this investigation. With 250 patients hospitalized at the KHCSB, a quasi-experimental research method, a single group pre-testing, and an apost-testing design was used for the present study. The data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The terms used are mean, standard deviation, t-Test. According to the pre-testing percentage grade AMG, 84.38 percent of the patients had maladaptive coping, and 20.52 percent had adaptive coping before the structured training session. According to the post-testing AMG percentage grade, 81.62 %of patients had adaptive coping, and 19.997 %had maladaptive coping. AMG differentiates between pre-testing and post-testing. The mean post-testing AMG was 11.01, while the mean pre-testing AMG was 7.31. The experimental group exhibited minimal statistical significance regarding preoperative and postoperative anxiety. The experimental group exhibited minimal statistical significance regarding preoperative and postoperative anxiety. The experimental group had a lot less duration between becoming awake and removal of the endotracheal tube.
