Core Tip

Core Tip: Patients may experience a series of psychological and physiological changes during the perioperative period, resulting in anxiety and depression, which could reduce pain threshold and worsen their prognosis. Using social cognitive theory, we developed psychological intervention measures to explore their effectiveness in reducing pain, anxiety, and depression in perioperative patients.
