NCT ID NCT07397052
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a mindfulness-based nursing program can lower anxiety and help stabilize blood pressure in 60 adults undergoing planned open heart surgery. Participants will receive the mindfulness intervention before and after surgery, and their anxiety levels and vital signs will be compared to those receiving standard care. The goal is to see if this simple, drug-free approach can improve emotional and physical recovery.
