- W2078275603 abstract "<h3>Abstract</h3> <b>Objective:</b> To determine whether remote, retroactive intercessory prayer, said for a group of patients with a bloodstream infection, has an effect on outcomes. <b>Design:</b> Double blind, parallel group, randomised controlled trial of a retroactive intervention. <b>Setting:</b> University hospital. <b>Subjects:</b> All 3393 adult patients whose bloodstream infection was detected at the hospital in 1990-6. <b>Intervention:</b> In July 2000 patients were randomised to a control group and an intervention group. A remote, retroactive intercessory prayer was said for the well being and full recovery of the intervention group. <b>Main outcome measures:</b> Mortality in hospital, length of stay in hospital, and duration of fever. <b>Results:</b> Mortality was 28.1% (475/1691) in the intervention group and 30.2% (514/1702) in the control group (P for difference=0.4). Length of stay in hospital and duration of fever were significantly shorter in the intervention group than in the control group (P=0.01 and P=0.04, respectively). <b>Conclusions:</b> Remote, retroactive intercessory prayer said for a group is associated with a shorter stay in hospital and shorter duration of fever in patients with a bloodstream infection and should be considered for use in clinical practice. <h3>What is already known on this topic</h3> Two randomised controlled trials of remote intercessory prayer (praying for persons unknown) showed a beneficial effect in patients in an intensive coronary care unit A recent systematic review found that 57% of the randomised, placebo controlled trials of distant healing showed a positive treatment effect <h3>What this study adds</h3> Remote intercessory prayer said for a group of patients is associated with a shorter hospital stay and shorter duration of fever in patients with a bloodstream infection, even when the intervention is performed 4–10 years after the infection" @default.
