The present study aims to determine the effects of Reiki therapy on the self-efficacy, death anxiety, and sleep quality of patients diagnosed with COPD. The present used a quasi-experimental model with a pretest-posttest control group. The subjects (n = 75) were recruited from a hospital in Turkey, between February and June 2019. Subjects were then assigned to Reiki (n = 39) and placebo (n = 36) groups. In this study, it was determined that there was a statistically significant difference in the mean scores of self-efficacy, death anxiety, and sleep quality between the Reiki and placebo groups (P <.05).These results suggest that Reiki exercise increased the self-efficacy and sleep quality levels and decreased the death anxiety.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/embargoedAccessCOPDDeath AnxietyReikiSleep QualityArticle10.1097/HNP.0000000000000694Q2
