This can be an overwhelming topic of discussion.
Random selection requires the use of some form of random sampling (such as stratified random sampling, in which the population is sorted into groups from which sample members are chosen randomly). Random sampling is a probability sampling method, meaning that it relies on the laws of probability to select a sample that can be used to make inference to the population; this is the basis of statistical tests of significance.
A study perfomed by Seife, Aliakbar, Aein & Drees (2020) focused on chronic illness and prolonged need for dialysis may lead to mental disorders such as anxiety. The current study aimed to assess the effect of breathing anxiety level of patients undergoing dialysis. Methods This study was a clinical trial. A total of 100 patients undergoing hemodialysis were selected by convenience sampling method. Then the samples were randomly assigned to experimental and control group. The experimental group received breathing intervention for eight sessions in a month under the guidance of a nurse and the control group received routine care. Conclusion Breathing intervention was effective in reducing situational anxiety in patients undergoing hemodialysis.
