Abstract

Introduction: Patients on hemodialysis who have poor sleep quality suffer negative effects on their overall health and quality of life. Benson relaxation is a cost-effective therapy and an easy-to-do method for treating sleep disorders in hemodialysis patients. Objective: This narrative literature review aims to determine the efficacy of Benson's relaxation therapy on hemodialysis patients' sleep quality. Method: Searching databased conducted through PubMed, Science Direct, ProQuest, SAGE Journal, and EBSCO Host. Selection of published articles with a range of 2012-2022, free full text, randomized controlled trials, quasi-experiment, and published in the English language. A total of 441 articles were obtained, and 5 articles met the criteria included in this narrative literature review. An assessment is carried out using Prisma Procedure and the JBI format as critical appraisal tools to assist in assessing the trustworthiness, relevance, and results of published papers. Result: The results of this review showed that Benson's relaxation therapy works to help hemodialysis patients sleep better in four articles. This improvement is especially in sleep disturbance, daytime dysfunction, the use of sleep medication, and subjective sleep quality. Discussion: Benson's relaxation therapy combines deep breathing relaxation with the holding of certain beliefs; this can produce an optimal relaxation response, not only in the body but also in the mind. This relaxation response is necessary for entering the alpha wave, which is necessary for entering the first stage of sleep, and it will help patients have better quality sleep.
