Objective:
To evaluate the effectiveness of the educational intervention through an informative manual in reducing anxiety, stress, and changes in vital signs in patients awaiting cardiac catheterization.
Methods:
Parallel, randomized, controlled, blind clinical trial. The study excluded patients waiting for cardiac catheterization; those who received the information manual were randomized to the intervention group, and those who received routine information from the unit went to the control group. The study used the State Anxiety Inventory and Perceived Stress Scale and the ANOVA test to analyze the outcomes between the groups. Clinical Trials .
Results:
There was no change concerning time, first and second moment (anxiety, P=0.225; and stress, P=0.696), interaction (anxiety, P=0.183; and stress, P=0.444), or groups, control, and intervention (anxiety, P=0.341; and stress, p=0.624).
Conclusion:
Although the educational intervention performed did not have an impact on the reduction of anxiety and stress, this type of intervention should be maintained for greater comfort and safety of patients and family members.

Objectives:
to evaluate the effectiveness of carbohydrate popsicles, carbohydrate solution, and usual care (fasting) on the intensity and discomfort of preoperative thirst.
Methods:
a randomized clinical trial with 60 preoperative patients aged between 18 and 60 years, randomized into three groups: control (fasting), carbohydrate solution (100 ml), and carbohydrate popsicle (100 ml). The outcomes were thirst intensity and discomfort.
Results:
there was a difference between groups for final thirst intensity (p = 0.01) and final thirst discomfort (p = 0.001). The effect size for both the Solution Group and the Popsicle Group was robust: 0.99 and 1.14, respectively.
Conclusions:
the groups that received the carbohydrate fasting abbreviation showed a reduction in thirst discomfort compared to the control group. The carbohydrate popsicle proved more effective in reducing the intensity of thirst. NCT: 3.209.283
