| Abstract: | This cross-sectional research study is part of a longitudinal study which was conducted in the main general teaching hospital in Malta. The aim of this study was to explore patients' anxiety during the recovery period and their perceptions of information-giving during hospitalization. A systematic sample of 70 patients were recruited in the Coronary Care Unit (CCU). Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected on patients' transfer to the medical ward from CCU, between July 2000 and March 2001. |
