PURPOSE OF RESEARCH: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of mandala coloring on post-operative anxiety in mothers of children undergoing congenital anomaly surgery.
RESULTS: In this randomized controlled clinical trial, 92 mothers of children undergoing congenital anomaly surgery were randomly assigned to the intervention or control groups. Standard care was provided for both groups. The intervention group participated in a mandala coloring activity for 30 min/day for three consecutive days following their children's surgery. Anxiety levels were measured using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) before and after the intervention. The data were analyzed by SPSS-23. The mean state anxiety score in the intervention and control groups was 38.43 ± 6.76 and 51.65 ± 6.34, respectively, and subsequent to the intervention, the mean trait anxiety score in the intervention and control groups was 41.28 ± 8.71 and 47.07 ± 8.82, respectively. The study found that mothers who engaged in mandala coloring experienced a significant decrease in state and trait anxiety compared to the control group (p < 0.001). Large effect size (η2 > 0.14) indicates mandala coloring significantly reduced the anxiety of mothers of children with congenital disorders.
CONCLUSION: Mandala coloring appears to be an effective intervention for reducing anxiety level in mothers of children undergoing surgery for congenital abnormalities. The study suggests that therapeutic art activities can improve psychological well-being post-operatively, urging further research to explore their long-term effects.
