Preoperative anxiety is a state of nervousness and unhappiness, a defensive behaviour due to the impending anaesthesia and surgery, characterised by fluctuations in the level of anxiety and the degree of anxiety over time, and closely related to personality traits.

Some patients may have a positive attitude towards surgery, especially if it relieves pain or improves quality of life. They may feel hopeful and expect that the surgery will restore their health or improve their quality of life.

# data[].attributes.body
In order to reduce psychological stress prior to surgery, many patients may develop different psychological coping strategies, such as denying the risks of the surgery or relieving stress through positive thinking (e.g., meditation, prayer, etc.).

# data[].attributes.body
Some patients may try to avoid thinking about the surgery and divert their attention from the increased anxiety. This avoidance strategy may help with emotional calming in the short term, but is not necessarily an effective way to cope in the long term.

Negative emotions, such as preoperative anxiety, reduce the patient's immune function by affecting immune regulation and decreasing the level of immune factors in the blood, which is more pronounced in the postoperative period.

Secondly, preoperative anxiety can increase the amount of anaesthetic used during general anaesthesia, with higher blood pressure and faster heart rate during surgery. In hemianesthesia, blood pressure is more likely to decrease and heart rate to slow down. Both of these can be harmful.

Color can play an important role in conveying information nonverbally, creating certain moods, and even influencing the decisions people make. Given that 90% of snap judgments are influenced by the psychological effects of color alone, it's important to know what colors mean and what responses they can elicit. You can then choose the look you want to present, both personally and professionally, to get the results you want.

What is Color Psychology?

In its simplest terms, color psychology has become a popular area of color theory that assigns emotional and psychological connotations between colors and emotions. Many of these meanings are universal because they have an effect on the brain but some are only cultural. When traveling, it would be wise to research the accepted and non-accepted colors for any family or cultural event you are attending abroad.

Whether you like a color frequently depends on childhood memories and your association between colors and feelings. If your mother made you wear yellow one day and your classmates made fun of you, yellow is not likely to be your favorite color as an adult.

Sometimes a hue can have many connotations for you. For example, you may choose to wear an orange blouse one day because:

It lifts your mood

You are ready to act

You are feeling creative

You want to make a statement

The Meaning of Colors

How do colors affect moods? While perceptions of color are somewhat subjective, some effects have universal meaning. Colors in the red area of the spectrum can be yellow-based such as scarlet red and red-orange are known as warm colors. These warm colors evoke emotions ranging from feelings of comfort and warmth to feelings of hostility and anger. Reds can also have an undertone of blue and are known as cool colors such as burgundy, ruby, raspberry, deep cherry. These colors are often described as calm but can also call to mind seriousness and dignity.

The subject is well documented, so we'll take a look at some personal and professional connotations associated with six of the rainbow colors to give you a better understanding of the psychology of colors.

1. Red

Red attracts the most attention and is associated with strong emotions, such as love, passion, and anger.

It's the universal color to signify strength, power, courage, and danger. Red is vibrant, stimulating and exciting with a strong link to sexuality and increased appetites.

Red is energizing and exciting, motivating us to act. It can also give confidence to those who are shy or lacking in willpower.

It's warm and positive, generally associated with our most physical needs and our will to survive. It exudes a strong and powerful masculine energy. It enhances metabolism, increases respiration rate, and raises blood pressure.

Wear red to energize the group or the meeting but in smaller patches of the outfit, such as a blouse or scarf. It also does wonders to uplift your mood in a dark green, grey, black and navy basic ensemble. Red ties are also favored by politicians as part of the red and blue tie partnership they wear with everything.

A little can go a long way, however, and in large areas red can cause visual strain. Wearing it too much, too often can brand you as a person in charge, but also as a bossy person!

2. Orange

This is the hue of encouragement, optimism, and self-confidence, marking the extrovert. Orange radiates warmth and happiness, combining the physical energy and stimulation of red with the cheerfulness of yellow. Orange can inspire courage, enthusiasm, rejuvenation, and vitality. It can also have a stimulating effect, particularly on the appetite.

It can also be a sign of pessimism and superficiality.

In business applications, orange gives the impression of affordability, depending on the shade chosen and its combination with other colors. More gentle than red, orange represents more feminine energy and the energy of creation.

For networking or a business social gathering, wear it boldly in a blazer. Pair it with a coordinating multi-colored top and solid slacks, or more cautiously in small patches in a printed top or scarf. It also combines naturally and beautifully with the Autumn shades of the Northern US taking on an artistic or grounded feel with brown and spicy shades. The downside of wearing orange is that orange dye lots vary in quality. Be sure to check your orange purchase in daylight as the harsher light can downgrade the tone. Orange ties for men are still on the power list so wear in an expensive silk foulard so that the colors gleam and radiate success.

3. Yellow

Yellow is the color of the mind and the intellect, resonating with the left, logical side of the brain. It is creative, the tone of new ideas and new ways of doing things. Post-it notes and legal pads were invented in yellow for a very good reason!

Being the lightest hue of the spectrum, yellow is uplifting and illuminating, offering hope, happiness, and fun. It's a warm and happy color that creates a sense of cheerfulness and playfulness, brightening people's spirits.

However, too much yellow can cause anxiety, nervousness, apprehension, agitation, and confrontation particularly in people who are already stressed. It can also suggest impatience, criticism, and cowardice, and motivate people to become overly critical, judgmental, and deceitful.

Avoid dressing in yellow when trying to influence men. They tend to see it as cheap and unsophisticated. However, it's brilliant to help stand out from the crowd and can easily be paired with a moderating shade to add more authority such as mid-blue or forest green. Yellow ties have fallen from the power tie rack recently but can still be worn successfully in a yellow and blue foulard print or polka dot.

4. Green

Green is of nature, of balance and growth. It is restful and secure, symbolizing harmony, healing, and stability.

It also represents security and self-reliance. Darker greens relate to money, wealth and prestige, while lighter greens relate to rebirth, growth, and freshness.

However, too much green can lead to feelings of envy, greed, jealousy, and selfishness.

In business, green is beneficial for anything to do with health and healing and promoting natural, safe, organic, environmentally friendly products. Dark green is a good choice for money and financial websites.

Wear it safely and to your advantage at work, in sales presentations, asking for funding or a loan. On the lighter side of the green, turquoise and aqua are two of the most popular colors, like the darker teal, all made from varying amounts of blue and green. They remind one of sunlight on a blue sea, health, peace and abundance. Use the colors in solids or prints as tops, blouses and shells under pantsuits with camel, beige, taupe as well as purple and charcoal. Men can wear teal ties to their advantage when they want to look approachable and authoritative.

5. Blue

Blue is the color of trust, serenity, and peace. It suggests loyalty and integrity as well as conservatism and predictability.

This has the opposite effect on the brain than red. It is calming, reducing tension and fear, slowing the pulse rate and reducing appetite. While inspiring wisdom and higher ideals, it is sincere, reserved, and quiet. Being cool, it creates a sensation of space.

Because blue is the most universally favored color of all, it is the safest to use in business and airline uniforms. It relates to trust, honesty, and dependability, therefore helping to build customer loyalty. Blue works well for the corporate world and is often used in important meetings. Wear it when interviewing, and meeting business professionals such as accountants, insurance companies, bankers and other financial companies where trust and reliability are important.

The downfall of blue and especially navy is that it can seem mature, conservative, boring or denote a rigid outlook. However, there are many blues that are more exciting than the navy. Think of a royal or a teal blue that is credible yet more interesting.

Royal blue ties are the politician's uniform and very predictable. Great for a conservative audience perhaps. Vary it a little with a blue or navy suit and white or pale blue shirts. What about a tie in varying shades of blue with a splash of red!

6. Purple

Purple is the color of imagination and spirituality, inspiring high ideals. It can be creative and individual or immature and impractical. It is also an introspective tone, allowing us to connect with our deeper thoughts.

People drawn to purple are usually sensitive and compassionate, understanding and supportive, thinking of others before themselves. They will often have a peaceful and tranquil quality, with quiet dignity about them.

Purple implies wealth, even royalty, as well as quality, fantasy, and creativity. This tone heightens people's sense of beauty and their reaction to more creative ideas.

It is often used to denote a high-quality or superior product. If you are in a service business, use some purple in your marketing to promote your premium service.
On your next shopping trip look for purple which is a much more creative choice than buying another black jacket. It's a good substitute for red and goes well with most pastels to give a high contrast look of authority, without resorting to the black and white cliché. Wear it with the confidence that you are going to look expensive and creative. Purple ties and pastel mauve or pinstripe shirts for men are often favored by the more adventurous, creative dressers. Wear them with confidence if you are representing a creative industry, service or product.

Final Thoughts on the Psychology of Color

While tone can influence how we feel and act, these effects are subject to personal, cultural, and situational factors. More scientific research is needed to gain a better understanding of color psychology, as the concept has become extremely popular in marketing, art, design, fashion, and other areas the seek to connect colors and emotions.

Light pink brings emotional tenderness and care, while light green offers the balance and revival of nature. Together, they create a warm and calming environment that helps people feel soothed and included, while at the same time rejuvenating their spirits.

When used in spatial design, light pinks and light greens can provide a comfortable, safe and vibrant environment for people who are anxious, tired or emotionally lost. These colour combinations are particularly suited to lounges, meditation spaces, and treatment rooms where the emphasis is on comfort and tranquillity.

The warm yellow colour provides emotional warmth and positive energy, while the cool yellow colour helps to maintain rational calm and focus. Used in combination they balance emotion and reason and are suitable for use in helping those who are emotionally unstable or need to regulate their mental rhythm. Using a combination of cool and warm yellow colours can provide a multi-dimensional emotional experience in spiritual healing, with both a warm sense of inclusion and a refreshing sense of calm. A gradient or combination of cool and warm yellow colours can create a soft sense of transition from warmth and care to calm and freshness, and can bring a gradual soothing effect to a space or design.

A number of studies have shown that art therapy is beneficial for cancer patients. A meta-analysis study7 conducted in 2020 showed beneficial effects on the quality of life of cancer patients. In another study8 , it was found that art therapy helped reduce anxiety, feelings of depression and even physical pain in cancer patients. In fact, art therapy may help relieve pain because it distracts and relaxes patients.

During my university years, I visited many places and admired countless beautiful sceneries. Most of them were in London, such as Hyde Park, fireworks displays, Battersea Park, and Winter Wonderland. I also traveled to Paris and strolled through the Tuileries Garden. These precious moments were captured in photos, and whenever I revisit them, they provide me with a deep sense of solace. I hope to share these beautiful sceneries to bring a similar sense of peace and comfort to ENT patients, helping them cope with anxiety and tension.

I experimented with a variety of subjects, initially choosing to use gestures to help energise ent patients, but after I had drawn two of them I found it too monotonous and there was no depth to it. A patient can't get a higher level of spiritual comfort by just seeing gestures.

Then I came up with the idea of painting flowers to provide spiritual comfort to the patient. However, the problem remained that the content of the paintings had no depth and it was difficult to ensure that all the patients loved flowers, so I gave up on this direction as well.

The third time, I chose to create a picnic, but in the process I found that I couldn't create 8 thematic and coherent illustrations, and the style of the paintings was too detailed and didn't suit the slightly abstract feeling I wanted to express.
