Anxiety in cancer patients can affect recovery time, medication adherence, and patient quality of life. Some studies show that dhikr therapy can improve relaxation and can reduce anxiety, but research on dhikr therapy in cancer patients is still not widely done. This study aims to determine the effect of dhikr therapy on reducing anxiety in cancer patients.
This study used a quantitative method with a quasi-experimental-nonequivalent control group design. The study was conducted in April-May 2018, with respondents 20 people in the intervention group and 20 people in the control group. Dhikr therapy is given once a day in the intervention group with a minimum time of 10 min. Anxiety was measured using the Visual Analog Scale for Anxiety. The effect of dhikr therapy was measured using the Mann-Whitney and effect size (ES).
There were a statistically significant differences in the anxiety level of patients in the intervention group and the control group, with a value of = 0.001 ( < 0.05) and ES = 0.87 (ES > 0.5) indicating the influence of dhikr therapy in reducing patient anxiety.
Dhikr therapy has a great effect on reducing anxiety in cancer patients.
癌症患者的焦虑会影响康复时间、药物依从性和患者生活质量。一些研究表明,齐克尔疗法可以促进放松并减轻焦虑,但针对癌症患者的齐克尔疗法研究仍未广泛开展。本研究旨在确定齐克尔疗法对减轻癌症患者焦虑的效果。
本研究采用定量方法,采用准实验非等效对照组设计。研究于2018年4月至5月进行,干预组有20名受访者,对照组有20名受访者。干预组每天进行一次齐克尔疗法,最短时间为10分钟。使用焦虑视觉模拟量表测量焦虑程度。使用曼-惠特尼检验和效应量(ES)来测量齐克尔疗法的效果。
干预组和对照组患者的焦虑水平存在统计学显著差异,值为 = 0.001(< 0.05),ES = 0.87(ES > 0.5),表明齐克尔疗法对减轻患者焦虑有影响。
齐克尔疗法对减轻癌症患者的焦虑有很大效果。
