In this clinical trial, 100 D & C patients were divided
into two groups randomly including the study group
(n=50) and the control (n=50). Spielberger’s state anxiety
inventory with 20 items and the VAS questionnaire
(visual analogue scale) were filled out by the two groups
before and after aromatherapy. Lavender patients inhaled
essential oil for 60 seconds and to be stable, the patient’s
nose was shortly massaged with the extract and the
control group was treated with A little lemon juice with
density 0.1% using the same procedure. The data were
analyzed by using SPSS 18 statistical software, and using
t-test to compare between the two groups and paired
t-test to compare the before and after intervention, with a
significant level of 0.05%.
