Abstract

Coronary Angiography and Percutaneous Coronary Interventions (PCI) are diagnostic and
therapeutic procedures often for patients with CAD. Although these are minimally invasive and
have relatively low risk, most patients showed pre-procedural anxiety. The present study assessed
the anxiety level and factors associated with it among older Adults undergoing coronary
angiography and percutaneous coronary intervention. A total of 155 older patients undergoing
Coronary Angiography and PCI at Cardiac Catheterization Units, Zagazig University Hospitals
were selected.
The results showed that 58.1% of the studied older adults patients had moderate anxiety,
while, 25.8% of them had severe anxiety and only 16.1% of them had mild anxiety level. The
highest rates of anxiety were found in in female patients with age greater than or equivalent to
70 years compared with other age groups, with low educational level, had chest pain attack and
those without previously cardiac intervention.
