| Popis: | Aims: This study was conducted to determine the effects of spiritual practice along routine medical care on the recovery of patients admitted with Covid-19. Materials & Methods: In a single-blinded clinical trial study 64 hospitalized patients with Covid-19, were randomly assigned in to two groups of intervention (spiritual practice+ routine treatment) and comparison (routine treatment). The intervention was performed using religious teachings, spiritual practice was taught to the patients in the intervention group with the intention of recovery and comfort. Spiritual practice was reciting Surah "Al-Hamd" and "Ya-Allah". The intervention group accomplished spiritual practice three times a day (21 times in total) for 7 days. Information gathered on demographic characteristics, depression and anxiety score, length of hospital stay, ICU transfer, intubation, and patient death. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) questionnaire was used to determine the symptoms of depression and anxiety. Findings: A total of 35 participants in the comparison group and 29 in the intervention group completed the study. After intervention, there was no significant difference between the length of hospitalization days between the intervention group (5.8±1.7) and the comparison (6.7±1.7). The rate of ICU request was significantly higher in the comparison group (40%,n=14) than in the intervention group (3.4%, n=1) (P |
