Abstract
Objective: To analyze the actions of clown therapy and the effects of physiological variation in renal patients on hemodialysis. Methods: This is a controlled and randomized clinical trial, conducted with 27 individuals, of both genders, who were undergoing hemodialysis at a public hospital in Pernambuco and were randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. For inferential analysis, Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney tests were used, all with a significance level of 5%. Test information was generated using the SPSS statistical package, version 20 (2011). The study was approved by the Research Ethics Committee. Results: From the results obtained, there is a higher prevalence of females 59.3%, 48.1% are single and live with family members. The initial access fistulas 66.7%, 66% do not report pain/discomfort. Clown therapy contributes to hemodialysis sessions, improves the patient's mood (12.5%). No modifications were identified for depressive symptoms. Heart rate showed the expected decrease in values in the intervention group (p < 0.003). Conclusion: It was concluded that clown therapy had positive reactions in patients on hemodialysis, it contributes to the performance of hemodialysis and has effects in reducing heart rate.
