The results on the medical research have been in the patients with clinical patients in the patients with clinical patients in antineoplastic; characterize a sample as the clinical and demographic variables; to describe how anxiety-state scores before and after a storm as classification (mean, high, and low) and comparable as pre- test and post-test anxiety state averages. The method has already been done in a pilot study of an experimental, uncontrolled clinical trial, conducted in a chemotherapy outpatient clinic of a university hospital in Fortaleza-CE.
