Effects of Caring Laughter Therapy Program on spinal cord injured patients

초록

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of depression, anger, and anxiety on Caring Laughter Therapy Program for patients with spinal cord injury and their families. The results of the study are summarized as follows. The depression, anger, and anxiety scores of the spinal cord and family members who participated in the interpersonal nursing laughter treatment program were significantly lower than those of the non-participant spinal cord patients and their families. Anxiety scores were the lowest among the various variables. As a result of the above study, we have developed a Caring Laughter Therapy Program for spinal cord injured patients and their families and confirmed that this intervention reduces depression, anger, and anxiety. Participation in Caring Laughter Therapy Programs for patients with spinal cord injuries and their families may have a positive impact on the home or community, and the Caring Laughter Therapy Programs will be a nursing intervention that can help the stress management and health promotion of spinal cord injury. © Rushing Water Publishers Ltd. 2018.
