Abstract

Background and objectives: Pain is a common complication after heart surgery that can cause problems for the patient. This study aimed to investigate the effect of Holy Quran voice on pain and hemodynamic indices after cardiac surgery.
Subjects and Methods: This single-blind randomized clinical trial was performed on heart surgery patients admitted to Golestan Hospital in Ahvaz in 2018. In the intervention group, after extubation, two times each day, for ten minutes, the voice of the Quran was broadcast. For the control group, the usual care was continued. Data collection tools consisted of demographic and clinical and visual analog scale (VAS) as well as hemodynamic indices including systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and heart rate. Data were analyzed by SPSS software version 22 using Chi-square, independent t-test and repeated ANOVA test.
Results: There was no significant difference between qualitative and quantitative variables between the two groups, so the two groups were similar.
Repeated ANOVA test showed that the use of Holy Quran voice was effective in reducing the pain intensity of patients (P <0.001). Also, the results showed the positive effect of Holy Quran voice on systolic blood pressure (P <0.001) and no significant effect on diastolic pressure and heart rate.
Conclusion: The results of the study showed that the Holy Quran voice is effective in reducing pain and systolic blood pressure in patients after open-heart surgery. Therefore, this method can be used as non-invasive nursing care.
