Abstract
In the intervention group, no cases of intubation and death occurred, in the comparison group, these rates were 40% (n=14) and 45.7% (n=16), respectively, and the difference was significant (P <0.001). The mean difference of anxiety score before and after spiritual practice in the intervention group was 3.1 (±3.6) and the comparison was 0.9 (±2.6) (P = 0.03). The mean difference of depression in the intervention group was 1.5 (2.1) and the comparison was 0.9 (1.8) (P <0.001). Conclusion Spiritual practice along with routine medical care, can lead to less mortality/ ICU transmission/intubation, improved anxiety/depression, as well as, improved recovery among Covid-19 hospitalized patients.
