简要总结
surgical intervention; It is defined as an emergency or planned treatment method for the purpose of diagnosis, treatment and symptom reduction in cases of deformity, injury, and disease with hands and tools. Although these interventions are practices aimed at protecting life, whether it is large or small, urgent or planned, it is both physiological and psychological trauma for the patient. The decision of surgical intervention may cause anxiety in individuals regardless of the type of surgical procedure. Fear of anesthesia, fear of death, possibility of postoperative complications, pain, changes in activities of daily living, loss of social life and loss of control may cause anxiety. Reiki, a complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) method, is a bioenergy based on the body's energy use and has been used for centuries in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases in various cultures. Reiki is thought to help balance the body's natural energy systems and reduce anxiety by transferring existing energy through the hands. Studies on the effectiveness of reiki, which is increasingly used worldwide and recommended as a treatment approach in health care, are insufficient. The aim of this study, which was planned as a three-group interventional randomized control, was to evaluate the effect of reiki on surgical fear and anxiety of patients who will undergo laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
详细描述
The results of the power analysis using the Gpower 3.1.9.2 program, it was planned to have 16 patients in reiki, 16 patients in sham reiki, and 16 patients in the control group, and study groups were determined by simple randomization method. The research data were collected between November 2022 and September 2023 in the operating room waiting room, in a quiet single room. Pre-application, "Personal Information Form", "Surgical Fear Form" and Surgical Anxiety Form" was applied to 12 patients who met the study criteria with the permission of the ethics committee. Data were collected in the operating room waiting room before and after Reiki. After obtaining the patient's consent, the Personal Information Form, the Surgical Fear Scale, and the Surgical Anxiety Scale were applied and recorded. According to randomization, the patients in the reiki/sham reiki group were taken to a quiet single room, and reiki/sham reiki was applied for approximately 25-30 minutes. Reiki application was applied by a researcher who received Reiki Master level training, and sham Reiki was applied by a health professional who did not receive Reiki training.
