The Effect of Remote Reiki Treatment on Hopelessness, Fatigue and Pain in Patients Awaiting Organ Transplantation

Therefore, this study is planned to be conducted as a randomized controlled trial with two groups. Fifty patients awaiting organ donation who meet the inclusion criteria will be included in the study. Data will be collected using the "Personal Information Form," "Beck Hopelessness Scale," "Fatigue Severity Scale," and "Brief Pain Inventory." Analyses will be performed using an appropriate statistical software package. We believe that distant Reiki practices may have positive effects on hopelessness, fatigue, and pain among hemodialysis patients awaiting organ donation. It is known that the majority of nurses worldwide hold Reiki practice certifications and use this method in chronic diseases. The main aim of this study is to support symptom management and strengthen coping mechanisms in individuals through distant Reiki practices.
