The sample included 24 males (60%) and 16 females (40%), aged 18 to 63 years, with mean age of 42.9 ± 13.6. Most cases were married (92.5%) and had primary education to diploma (47.5%). The mean score of patient's anxiety before sampling was 21.5 ± 5.7, and after the education it was reduced to 16.1 ± 6.2 (P = 0.001).
