Abstract Abstract-
This research aimed to investigate the anxiety and stress levels among the post caesarean mothers in experimental and control group. Many mothers face some discomfort after caesarean section like pain, mood changes, postpartum depression and stress. Anxiety and stress levels were evaluated by using quantitative research approach with quasi experimental pre-test and post-test control group design and by using non probability purposive sampling technique, total 30 subjects {Experimental group (15) and Control group (15)} were recruited. The intervention was given to the experimental group twice in a day for four consecutive days. Benson’s relaxation therapy was used to get the anxiety and stress results of the caesarean mothers.
The subjects were examined by using SPSS version 20. The t-test was used to analyses the data. The p-value less than 0.05 were considered as significant level. The standard deviation of stress for experimental and control group is 6.734 and 9.841and the t value is 23.667 and for anxiety the standard deviation of experimental and control group is 4.329 and 3.195 and the t value 16.219. The mean stress score for experimental group reduced from 97.40 to 27.27 while in control group it was 101.33 at pre-intervention and 100.13 at follow-up. The mean anxiety score for the experimental group reduced from 55.00 to 35.20 while in control group it was 57.87 at pre-intervention and 57.73 at follow-up of the patients. This proves that there is a significant difference in the pre and post- test level score of stress and anxiety in experimental and control group.
