Reiki in Symptom Management of Hemodialysis Patients

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to investigate the effect of Reiki applied to individuals receiving hemodialysis treatment on hemodialysis-related symptoms and hematological indicators.

Clinical Trial Description

The study has a pretest-posttest randomized controlled design and it was carried out between March and July 2022 with 64 patients over the age of 18 who received hemodialysis treatment for at least 15 days in the dialysis unit of state hospitals in two different cities. Data were collected using the Patient Information Form, the Dialysis Symptom Index (DSI), and the follow-up chart including erythrocyte (RBC), hemoglobin (HGB), hematocrit (HCT), serum urea, creatinine, sodium (Na), potassium (K), phosphorus (P), and calcium (Ca) values. While the distance Reiki intervention was applied to each of the patients in the Reiki group for 60 minutes, no intervention was made in the control group. One week after the intervention, the DSI was re-administered to the patients in the posttest, and hematology and biochemistry results were recorded. ;
