Özet
Background: Using Reiki and back massage to support pharmacological treatments is increasingly common in
nursing. This study aimed to determine the effects of Reiki and back massage on pain, analgesic use, and vital
signs among women who had undergone an open abdominal hysterectomy.
Methods: This experimental study involved a single, blinded, pretest-posttest design. The study population comprised women who had undergone an abdominal hysterectomy at the obstetrics clinics of
Gazi Yasargil Training and Research Hospital and Dicl ¸ e University Hospital between July 2017 and February 2018. Patients were divided into three groups: a Reiki group, a back massage group, and a control group. Each group comprised 34 patients. Reiki or back massage was applied to patients in the
respective non-control groups for 20 min once a day. Data were collected using a patient information
form, the “Numeric Pain Rating Scale,” and the “Vital Signs and Postoperative Analgesic Follow-up
Form.”
Results: Statistically significant differences in pain intensity and analgesic use were observed between the
women in the Reiki group and the women in the back massage and control groups (p < 0.001). Significant
differences in vital signs were observed between the groups before and after their respective procedures; in
the Reiki group, they tended to decrease, while in the back massage and control groups, they tended to
increase.
Conclusion: This study’s findings confirmed that pain, analgesic use, and vital signs decreased after Reiki
among women who had undergone an abdominal hysterectomy
