Relationship between Spiritual Health, Burn Pain Anxiety, and Resilience in Burn Patients
Abstract
Background and Objective: Burn pain during therapeutic procedures causes anxiety in patients. Spiritual health and resilience are factors affecting anxiety. The present study aimed to determine the relationship between spiritual health with resilience and wound pain anxiety in burn patients. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 213 patients were selected by random sampling method. Demographic information, Polotzin and Ellison's spiritual health questionnaire, Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and Burns Specific Pain Anxiety Scale were used to collect data. T-tests and one-way analysis of variance were used to analyze the collected data. Data analysis was performed using SPSS software (version 21). Results: The findings showed that most patients were male (62.91%) with an average age of 38.21 ± 12.72. The average scores of spiritual health, wound pain anxiety, and resilience were 73.63 ± 21.20, 52.83 ± 16.18, and 58.24 ± 13.51, respectively. Although a significant relationship was found between spiritual health and resilience and between resilience and wound pain anxiety, no significant relationship was seen between spiritual health and wound pain anxiety. Conclusion: Burn patients suffer a lot of pain during procedures such as dressings. Considering the relationship between spiritual health, burn pain anxiety and resilience, educational workshops are suggested to increase spiritual health, resilience and better tolerance during hospitalization.
