In this study, the effect of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) on death anxiety and depression was investigated in patients with heart failure.
In this quasi-experimental study, 66 patients with heart failure were randomly assigned to intervention (n = 33) and control (n = 33) groups. Data collection was done using a demographic questionnaire, Templer death anxiety scale, and Beck depression inventory.
It was found that the overall scores of death anxiety and depression in posttest were significantly lower than those at the follow-up stage in the intervention group.
CBT could significantly reduce death anxiety and depression in patients with heart failure. Therefore, it is recommended to equip nurses with CBT trainings to manage patients with heart failure better.
在本研究中,调查了认知行为疗法(CBT)对心力衰竭患者死亡焦虑和抑郁的影响。
在这项准实验研究中,66名心力衰竭患者被随机分为干预组(n = 33)和对照组(n = 33)。使用人口统计学问卷、坦普勒死亡焦虑量表和贝克抑郁量表进行数据收集。
发现干预组后测中死亡焦虑和抑郁的总体得分显著低于随访阶段。
认知行为疗法可显著降低心力衰竭患者的死亡焦虑和抑郁。因此,建议对护士进行认知行为疗法培训,以便更好地管理心力衰竭患者。
