Overview

Quasi-experimental analysis revealed decreased anxiety in hemodialysis patients, suggesting benefits of relaxation therapy and aromatherapy.

Key Points

  • Combination therapy significantly reduces anxiety levels in patients undergoing hemodialysis, with most becoming non-anxious after treatment.
  • Pre-test indicated 85.7% of patients experienced mild to moderate anxiety, which shifted to 95.2% being non-anxious post-treatment.
  • This quasi-experimental study utilized the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale to measure changes in anxiety levels before and after therapy.
  • Findings support the potential of using Benson relaxation and lavender aromatherapy as effective methods for anxiety management in chronic kidney disease.
