Pages

  48-56

Abstract

 Background and Objective: Cancer is a common disease in CHILDREN. CHEMOTHERAPY as one of the most important treatments for cancer, can lead to ANXIETY and negative physiologic reactions. The current study aimed to determine the effect of FOOT REFLEXOLOGY MASSAGE on vital signs and ANXIETY related to CHEMOTHERAPY drug injection in CHILDREN with leukemia.Materials and Method: The current randomized clinical trial study was conducted on CHILDREN of 6-12 years old with leukemia undergoing CHEMOTHERAPY reffered to oncology center in Kerman in 2015. One hundred and twenty CHILDREN were recruited by convenience sampling and were randomly allocated into three groups of 40 persons. The intervention was done as a 20-minute session of FOOT REFLEXOLOGY MASSAGE for intervention group and simple touch for the placebo group immediately before the injection. The vital signs and ANXIETY of patients were measured immediately before and after the intervention through using the vital sign record form and Observational Scale behavior Disress. The data were analyzed using Kruskal-Wallis tests, Chi-square, Wilcoxon, Mann-Whitney and Spearman correlation coefficient by SPSS 16.Results: After the intervention, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, temperature (p<0.0001) and ANXIETY (p=0.003) was significantly decreased in the intervention group. This decrease in the placebo group was significant only in the systolic blood pressure (p<0.0001), heart rate (p<0.0001), respiratoy rate (p=0.009) and ANXIETY (p<0.0001). While in the control group, the systolic blood pressure (P<0.03) and diastolic blood pressure (p<0.0001) was a significant increase after intervention.Conclusion: FOOT REFLEXOLOGY MASSAGE as a non-pharmacological method can reduce ANXIETY and improve the vital signs in CHILDREN with leukemia, during the CHEMOTHERAPY drug injection.
