AB  - Post-surgical chest tube removal (CTR) is associated with a significant pain and 
      discomfort for patients. Current treatment strategies for reducing CTR-associated 
      pain and anxiety are limited and partially efficacious. To determine the effects 
      of cold application, inhalation of lavender essential oil, and their combination 
      on pain and anxiety during CTR was investigated. This randomized controlled 
      open-label trial was conducted with 80 patients in the cardiac surgery intensive 
      care unit who had a chest tube for duration of at least 24 hours after coronary 
      artery bypass grafting (CABG). Patients were randomized (n=20 in each group) to 
      receive cold application, aromatherapy with lavender oil, cold application in 
      combination with lavender oil inhalation, or none of the above interventions 
      (control group). The intensity and quality of pain and anxiety were evaluated 
      using the visual analogue scale, short form and modified-McGill pain 
      questionnaire (SFM-MPQ) and the Spielberger situational anxiety level inventory 
      (STAII) scale, respectively. Patients in all treatment groups had significantly 
      lower pain intensity and anxiety compared with the control group immediately, 5, 
      10 and 15 min after CTR. There was no statistically significant difference in the 
      SFM-MPQ total scores between the intervention groups. With respect to anxiety 
      score, there was a significantly reduced anxiety level immediately after CTR in 
      the aromatherapy and cold-aromatherapy combination groups versus the cold 
      application group. The present results suggested the efficacy of cold application 
      and aromatherapy with lavender oil in reducing pain and anxiety associated with 
      post-CABG CTR.
