Spiritual care with dhikr for heart failure
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a program that combines spiritual care (a heart-focused practice) with the Islamic remembrance of God (dhikr) to see if it helps people with heart failure feel better and manage their condition. It is for Muslim adults with heart failure symptoms that limit daily activity but are stable enough to be treated at a clinic.
