Meta AnalysisNon-pharmacological interventions for anxiety in burn patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Present review aimed to conduct a comprehensive review of the effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions (NPIs) on reducing anxiety in adult burn patients. ⋯ Due to weak evidence, we are unable to make strong recommendations in favor of NPIs for burn anxiety. Further well-designed large sample size randomized clinical trials are warranted.
