Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Aim: This study was conducted to investigate the effect of education given at different times before a breast biopsy on anxiety, readiness for the procedure, pain, and satisfaction levels in women. Background: A breast biopsy is an invasive procedure that causes pain and anxiety. Patient education is an effective and evidence-based nursing intervention that reduces pain and anxiety levels. Design: The study is a single-center, uncontrolled randomized clinical trial. Method: Participants (n: 60) in the study were randomly assigned into three groups. The first group (n: 20) was given education about the breast biopsy 1-2 weeks before the procedure, the second group (n: 20) was given education on the day of the procedure, and the third group (n: 20) was given education at two different times, the first 1-2 weeks before the procedure and the second on the day of the procedure. Research data were collected by using a Descriptive Characteristics Form, the State Anxiety Inventory, and a Patient Assessment Form.
