ABSTRACT

The aim was to evaluate the impact of nurse-led religious and spiritual interventions (RSI) on the psychological distress of hospice care patients. Pubmed, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, Embase, RISS, KISS, and ScienceOn were searched until December 2023. A systematic review and meta-analysis were performed on 10 studies involving a total of 597 hospice care patients. Overall, nurse-led RSI appeared to have beneficial effects in reducing anxiety (SMD = -1.09, 95% CI = -1.67 to -0.50) and depression (SMD = -1.12, 95% CI = -1.83 to -0.40). These findings suggest that, if applied appropriately, nurse-led RSI can be used as a method to alleviate psychological distress among hospice care patients.
