Abstract
This review delves into the potential benefits of integrating yoga into the care of patients with heart failure. A systematic literature review was undertaken through electronic searches of indexed databases. Quality assessment utilized the Cochrane risk-of-bias tool, and data on population characteristics, interventions, and clinical, biochemical, and functional outcomes were meticulously extracted. Six randomized trials, encompassing 296 individuals with a left ventricular ejection fraction between 30 and 50%, and functionally classified per the New York Heart Association as I, II, or III, were included. Despite limited published experimental research, yoga demonstrates promising effectiveness in enhancing outcomes such as quality of life, functional capacity, and clinical markers. Notably, safety and adherence outcomes remain unexplored. Future studies should prioritize a representative sample size, methodological rigor, and adherence to established yoga intervention guidelines in randomized clinical trials, ensuring comprehensive evaluation across short-, medium-, and long-term perspectives.
期刊介绍:
Holistic Nursing Practice (HNP), The Science of Health and Healing, is a peer-reviewed bimonthly journal that explores holistic models of nursing practice. Content emphasizes complementary traditional and holistic nursing and healthcare practices. Articles include theory-based interventions and their outcomes, including: innovations in holistic nursing practice; research related to holistic nursing practice, health care, and policy; and values and ethical-legal issues related to holistic nursing practices. The holistic approach is a worldview that emphasizes the potential for health and healing in human systems rather than on disease process and deficit.
