The aim of the study was to assess the  patient preferences of anxiety reducing strategies prior to coronary angiography. The research  question was what are the patient preferences of anxiety reducing strategies prior to coronary  angiography? A descriptive exploratory design was utilized to fulfill the aim of the study.A convenient sample consisted of 60 adult patients undergoing coronary angiography at one  of Cairo University hospitals, Egypt. Three tools were used to collect data pertinent to the study: a) Semi-structured interview questionnaire to assess the subjects{u2019} socio-demographic  and medical related variables data, b) Numeric Visual Analog Anxiety Scale (NVAAS) to  assess level of anxiety and c) Anxiety reducing strategies questionnaire used to assess  subjects{u2019} preferences of anxiety reducing strategies prior to coronary angiography.More than half of the study subjects had moderate to severe anxiety. The study subjects  preferred supplication, prayer and listening and recitation of Quran to control their anxiety  before Coronary angiography. In-service training programs should be planned and applied  frequently to all nurses to boost their knowledge and practice regarding patient{u2019}s  psychological status especially before coronary angiography procedure
