| Summary: | Stress and anxiety are common among intensive care unit (ICU) patients especially those who are on
mechanical ventilation. Non-pharmacological interventions such as music and prayer are recommended
because they are opioid sparing, easy to provide, cheap and safe. There is a growing body of evidence on the
effects of Holy Quran Recitation (HQR) in reducing stress and anxiety in critically ill Muslim patients. The aim
of this review is to evaluate the physiological and psychological effects of HQR specifically in ICU setting.
This review was performed on articles published between 2007 and 2018. Extensive search was done using
PubMed, ISI Web of Knowledge, Scopus and Google Scholar. Systematic review articles are also assessed and
relevant literatures are hand searched based on reference lists and citations made in key publications.
Studies related to HQR which were done outside adult ICU setting were excluded. A total of nine articles are
included in the final list for detail analysis. Findings of this review revealed six studies with significant
results in improving stress responses, hemodynamic stability and conscious levels. HQR is a potential nonpharmacological tool to reduce stress and can also be used as auditory stimulus to improve conscious level in
comatose patients. More studies in this area are recommended aiming for low risk of bias, appropriate
calculation of sample size and adequately powered to detect significant outcomes. |
