Abstract

Background: We aimed to evaluate the effect of Dignity therapy on the Dignity, distress, and Quality of life of terminally-ill adult patients. Methods: All randomized controlled trials published prior to Jan 2021 were searched through database, includ-ing PubMed, Medline, OVID, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, Web of Science, Scopus, ProQuest Central, KMBASE, KoreaMed, NDSL, and RISS. The RoB 2 was used to assess risk of bias. Effect sizes, Hedge's g and Higgins I2–, statistics were used for meta-analysis. Results: We finally identified 10 studies for a systematic review, and eight studies out of them were selected for a meta-analysis. Overall, 776 participants were included in the meta-analysis. There were significant differences between with and without Dignity therapy groups in Dignity and Anxiety (SMD =-0. 3805, Cl =-0. 5606,-0. 2004,SMD =-0. 1932, Cl =-0. 3774,-0. 0090, respectively) while there was no significant difference in Quality of life and Depression (SMD=0. 4678, Cl =-0. 0989, 1. 0345,SMD=-0. 0513, Cl=-0. 2461, 0. 1434, respectively). Conclusion: Dignity therapy may be effective for Terminally ill patients on Dignity and Anxiety. We suggested further empirical studies with Dignity therapy and repetitive meta-analysis in the future due to heterogeneity of the studies.
