Table 2.

Occurrence of low GSES and high TSK in the entire study group of 266 patients

	Control group (n = 138)			Intervention group (n = 128)
	n	Mean (SD)	Median (Min-Max)	n	Mean (SD)	Median (Min-Max)	P-value
GSES ≤ 29a	36 (26 %)	25.3 (4.2)	27 (11–29)	40 (37 %)	24.3 (5.1)	26 (10–29)	0.3
TSK ≥ 40b	70 (52 %)	46.9 (5.3)	46 (40–64)	63 (59 %)	43.2 (5.5)	45 (40–60)	0.4

^aSome of the GSES questions were considered difficult; as a result, 19 patients in the control group and 10 in the intervention group left some or all of them blank and therefore had to be excluded

^b Regarding the TSK, 8 patients in the intervention group did not answer all questions and had to be excluded
