摘要：A Study to assess the effectiveness of progressive muscle relaxation therapy in reducing stress amongpatients with abdominal surgery for cancer treatment from selected hospital in chennai .A quasi experimental designwas used and the conceptual frame work of the study was based on SisterCallistaRoy Adaptation model. Nonequivalent control group pre-test and post design was used for this study. Purposive sampling technique was used toselect the samples. All the samples who were admitted in surgical oncology ward were included in the study. The totalsample size was 60, 30 in the experimental group and 30 in the control group. The tool used for data collection had twoparts. Part one was the demographic profile of the cancer patients and part two was Stress rating scale. The mean levelof stress (82.04) after the use of PMRT was lower than the mean level of stress (112.43) before the use of PMRT.Theobtained t value df (29) was significant at 0.05 level.The findings imply that the PMRT had a significant effect inreducing the stress of patients with cancer.The mean post test level of stress in experimental group was lower than the mean post test level of stressin controlgroup (82.04) and (115.32) respectively. The obtained t value of 5.06 at df (58) was significant at .05 level.
