Özet
ObjectivesThis study aimed to evaluate the effects of Reiki on pain, anxiety, and hemodynamic parameters in patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) in an adult intensive care unit.MethodsA single-blind, randomized, sham-controlled experimental design was used. Sixty patients undergoing IMV were randomly assigned to either the Reiki group (n = 30) or the sham Reiki group (n = 30). The Reiki group received a 30-min Reiki session, while the sham group received a 30-min simulated session by a noncertified individual with no energy transmission intent. The primary outcome was the change in pain score measured by the Critical Care Pain Observation Tool (CPOT). Secondary outcomes included anxiety level, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, and respiratory rate. Data collection tools included the Patient Identification Form, Face Anxiety Scale, CPOT, and a Hemodynamic …
