Brief Summary:
This study aims to examine the effect of acupressure on physiological parameters and anxiety levels in individuals diagnosed with Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS).
H1-1: Acupressure applied to individuals diagnosed with ACS has an effect on the level of anxiety.
H1-2: Acupressure applied to individuals diagnosed with ACS has an effect on blood pressure.
H1-3: Acupressure applied to individuals diagnosed with ACS has an effect on heart rate.
H1-4: Acupressure applied to individuals diagnosed with ACS has an effect on respiratory rate.
H1-5: Acupressure applied to individuals diagnosed with ACS has an effect on the pain level.
H1-6: Acupressure applied to individuals diagnosed with ACS has an effect on cortisol levels.

Detailed Description:
Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) affects millions of people every year; It refers to three types of coronary artery disease: unstable angina pectoris, non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTE MI) and ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). It is known that 19 million people in the world and 161 thousand people in our country lost their lives due to Cardiovascular Disease (CVD). Approximately 3 million people worldwide die due to STEMI.Individuals experiencing ACS generally; It is observed that he/she experiences burning, stinging and compressive chest pain, tachycardia, sweating, fatigue, dizziness, dyspnea, nausea, anxiety and depression.Management of the disease is combined with pharmacological applications; It is tried to be provided with non-pharmacological applications such as education, acupuncture and acupressure. When the literature is examined, acupressure application; in the physiological parameters of individuals with myocardial infarction; It brings blood pressure, heart rate and respiratory rate to normal limits, and increases oxygen saturation and sleep quality; It appears to reduce anxiety and pain.For all these reasons, this study aims to examine the effect of acupressure on physiological parameters (blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, pain and cortisol) and anxiety levels in individuals diagnosed with ACS.
