Brief Summary

After the general period of positive social adjustments, epilepsy is in a high life cycle to control seizures. During seizures in epilepsy, patients' quality of life and antiepileptic life span can be seen in daily life such as daily life and daily awakenings. Reiki, which has been proven by studies in health problems such as fatigue and pain; an energy that can be unblocked or applied in a non-applicable way can benefit from a therapy that can be applied by touch or remotely, without negative effects. In the literature, reiki applied to epilepsy patients has sleep and quality of life. This thesis is planned to do research on sleep and living areas of reiki applied to epilepsy patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index

    The Pitssburgh sleep quality index, developed by Buysse et al. in 1989, is used to evaluate the quality of sleep, the amount of sleep, the presence and severity of sleep disorders in the last month. Agargun et al. They adapted PUKI to Turkish in 1996.There are seven components in the scale. These; subjective sleep quality (component 1), sleep latency (component 2), sleep duration (component 3), habitual sleep efficiency (component 4), sleep disturbance (component 5), use of sleeping pills (component 6) and daytime dysfunction (component 3) 7) stop. The evaluation score of each item is between 0-3, and the total score obtained at the end of the evaluation is between 0-21. A total score of 5 and less than 5 defines good sleep, and a total score of more than 5 defines poor sleep

  • Quality of Life Scale in Epilepsy

    The Quality of Life Scale for Patients with Epilepsy was developed by Vickrey et al. in 1993. Mollaoğlu et al. carried out the validity and reliability studies of this scale in Turkey in 2015. The scale includes 7 sub-dimensions. These sub-dimensions are; anxiety about seizures (5 items), effects of drugs (3 items), energy/fatigue (4 items), emotional well-being (5 items), cognitive function (6 items), social function (5 items), total quality of life (2 items) ) and an additional item that evaluates the total health status, a total of 31 items. Scale scoring is in the range of 0-100. High score indicates higher quality of life
