The study used a quasi-experiment design with one pre-posttest group. The sample was selected using a consecutive sampling technique with total of 45 respondents. The respondents were given SEFT intervention for 3 (three) days using set-up, tune-in, and tapping techniques. The evaluation was carried out on the third day after the intervention by measuring the pain intensity using Brief Pain Inventory (BPI). This research used Wilcoxon and ordinal logistic regression for data analysis. The results showed a difference in pain intensity before and after SEFT intervention in patients with advanced breast cancer with a <i>p</i>-value of .001 (<i>p</i> < .05) with a change in intensity from severe to mild pain. This study's novelty is that SEFT intervention can be used as a nonpharmacological therapy for pain management in patients with advanced breast cancer. The limitations are only limited to measuring the patient's pain and less analysis related to the patient's emotional and spiritual problems. The application of SEFT intervention is recommended as a nurse's independent intervention in the management of advanced breast cancer pain.</p>","PeriodicalId":51615,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Holistic Nursing","volume":" ","pages":"S99-S109"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41219821","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
