Surgery Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effects of Stress Reduction on Surgical Wound Healing: A Randomised Controlled Trial
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether a stress reduction intervention prior to surgery can improve wound healing and recovery.The investigators hypothesise that patients who receive a psychological stress reduction intervention prior to surgery will report lower stress and higher perceived control, have lower stress hormones, better wound healing and better self-reported recovery than patients who receive standard care alone.
