Abstract
Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to combine the physiological, psychological, and spiritual health effects of spiritual and religious interventions on cardiovascular disease patients.
Method: Studies from January 1999 to December 2022 were sourced from ScienceDirect, PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane CENTRAL, and cumulative index to nursing and allied health literature databases. This meta-analysis adhered to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses guidelines. Data were analyzed using Comprehensive Meta-Analysis Version 4. Heterogeneity was assessed using 95% confidence intervals (CIs), p values, and fixed or random-effects models.
Results: This systematic review included 15 studies with 2,047 participants, while the meta-analysis focused on 12 studies. Spiritual and religion-based interventions notably reduced participants' heart rate (g = -0.287, 95% CI = [-0.552, -0.021]), anxiety (g = -1.081, 95% CI [-1.364, -0.831]), and depression (g = -1.346, 95% CI [-1.965, -0.726]). Moreover, these interventions significantly enhanced spiritual well-being (g = 0.692, 95% CI [0.459, 0.926]) and hope levels (g = 1.152, 95% CI [0.347, 1.956]) compared to control groups.
Conclusion: This meta-analysis flashes on utilizing spiritual and religion-based interventions for nurses, chaplains, psychologists, social workers, and other professionals who might lead patient care to enhance health outcomes for cardiac patients.
