Patients were provided with an informed consent form, a personal information form and the Beck Anxiety Scale. The Beck Anxiety Scale was administered to the control group before and after the procedure. In the experimental group, the Beck Anxiety Scale was administered before the procedure, and after providing breathing exercise education and application, the Beck Anxiety Scale was completed after the procedure.

Detailed description: This research was designed as a pre-test-post-test controlled group randomized controlled interventional study to determine the effect of breathing exercises applied to patients undergoing coronary angiography for the first time on anxiety.

The study population consisted of SBÜ Kartal Koşuyolu Training and Research Hospital.When statistical power analysis was performed according to the G-Power program in the sample group, a minimum of 34 experimental and a minimum of 34 control groups were used, considering data loss, 76 volunteer patients who met the inclusion criteria were studied. Patients were provided with an informed consent form, a personal information form and the Beck Anxiety Scale. The Beck Anxiety Scale was administered to the control group before and after the procedure. In the experimental group, the Beck Anxiety Scale was administered before the procedure, and after providing breathing exercise education and application, the Beck Anxiety Scale was completed after the procedure. The 'Dependent Group T-Test' technique was used for the analysis of data obtained from the scales used in the study, comparing pre-test and post-test scores of the intervention and control groups. Also, the 'Independent Group T-Test' was used for separate comparisons of pre-test and post-test scores of the experimental and control groups.
