Abstract

This study explores the effectiveness of spiritual techniques, specifically the Qur'anic Emotional Freedom Technique (SQEFT), in reducing anxiety among chronic kidney failure patients undergoing haemodialysis. A quasi-experimental one-group pre-test post-test design was employed on 29 patients over 30 days, with sessions held twice weekly. Anxiety levels, assessed using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), showed a significant reduction after the intervention (p = 0.000). These findings suggest that SQEFT, as a spiritual technique, offers a promising non-pharmacological approach to managing anxiety in haemodialysis patients. Future studies are encouraged to explore its broader psychological benefits and long-term impact on patient well-being.
