Abstract

A decreased level of consciousness is an emergency problem that can lead to brain function issues resulting in high morbidity and mortality rates. The number of patients with the complication of hemodynamics deterioration accompanied by decreased level of consciousness has been considered to be high. Therefore, the caring management in the form of Murattal al-Quran therapy could be used as an alternative intervention to respond to the particular problem. The purpose of this literature review is to determine the effect of Murattal therapy on changes in patients’ consciousness. The selected articles of this research were collected from various electronic sources such as google scholar, pubmed, and the Garuda portal. Specific keywords related to the topic such as the effect of murattal therapy, the decreased level of patients’ consciousness, and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) indicator were used to specify the search. The results of this research showed that Murattal al- Quran therapy intervention had an effect on changes in the Glasgow Coma Scale and Vital Signs in patients with decreased consciousness.

Highlights

Based on data obtained from the World Health Organization (WHO), it was recorded that patients with critical conditions in the Intensive Care Unit showed an increasing prevalence rate every year [1]
The research results above are certainly in accordance with the research conducted by Widaryati (2016) which explains that Al-Qur'an murattal therapy has an effect on changes in the level of consciousness with the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) indicator [13]
Moh al Khoif (2015) identified the results of the analysis using Mann Whitney which showed a significant value (p) = 0.001 indicating that there was a difference in the level of awareness between the treatment group that was given murattal therapy compared to the control group that was not given murattal therapy [16].Through this research, it could be seen that there is an effect of Alquranmurattal (Ar-rahman) therapy in the recovery process of patients with the average treatment group value of 9.3 higher than the control group value of 8.2
