Summary

Using Complementary therapies with conventional treatments to relieve pain can reduce the patient's medical expenses and increase the patient's psychological feeling of self-control of the body. Static magnetic therapy is one of the non-invasive complementary therapies. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of static magnetic therapy on pain relief in hospitalized patients.

In this study, a quasi-experimental design with double-blind randomization method was proposed. 220 inpatients in a teaching hospital in central Taiwan were selected as the research subjects, and divided into experimental group and control group of 110. SPSS software package was used for descriptive and inferential statistical analysis in this study. For descriptive statistical analysis, frequency distribution, percentage, mean, and standard deviation were utilized. Inferential statistical analysis was applied with Chi-square test, Pearson's correlation, t-test, ANOVA, and Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE). The P value of significance level was set less than 0.05.
