Damask Rose Aromatherapy and the Anxiety of Endoscopic Candidate Patients: A Clinical Trial

Subject

Anxiety, Aromatherapy, Endoscopy, Rosa

Description

Introduction: Anxiety is one of the common problems among patients before undergoing
invasive diagnostic techniques. One of these diagnostic techniques is gastrointestinal
endoscopy. Aromatherapy is one of the complementary therapies to reduce anxiety.
Objective: This study aimed to determine the effect of aromatherapy with Damask rose on
the anxiety of the patients before undergoing endoscopy.
Materials and Methods: This study is a clinical trial performed on patients referred to the
Endoscopy Department of one of the educational and therapeutic centers in Rasht City,
Iran, in 2019. The study sample was 70 patients divided into the intervention and control
groups. After giving the informed consent form, the samples completed the demographic
information questionnaire and Spielberger anxiety questionnaire. The intervention group
received aromatherapy with 10% Damask rose essential oil, and the control group received
aromatherapy with a placebo for 30 minutes. The anxiety questionnaire was completed
again 30 minutes after aromatherapy. The data were analyzed using descriptive and
inferential statistics (the paired t-test, Chi-square, independent t-test, and covariance test).
Results: Results showed that the Mean±SD age of participants was 41.05±13.15 years in
the intervention (ranged 22-65 years) and 45.82±16.81 years in the control groups. Most
participants were female (57.1%). After the intervention, the mean score of anxiety in the
aromatherapy group (39.88±11.51) was lower than that in the control group with placebo
(49.94±12.30), which was statistically significant (P=0.001).
Conclusion: This study showed that aromatherapy with Damask rose essential oil was
effective on pre-endoscopic anxiety of the patients. Since complementary medicine is
increasingly practiced in nursing care, Damask rose aromatherapy, because of its low cost,
safety and simplicity, can be used as a complementary measure to reduce anxiety in patients
before endoscopy. However, more studies with intervention, control, and routine groups are
needed to confirm the effectiveness of aromatherapy in endoscopy.
