Clinical Trial Summary

This study will be conducted to compare between effects of mindfulness breathing and storytelling on insomnia in the elderly.


Clinical Trial Description

Sufficient sleep is essential for optimum health just a few of the numerous processes occurring during sleep include memory consolidation, clearance of brain metabolites, and restoration of nervous, immune, skeletal, and muscular systems. Despite the significance of adequate sleep, insufficient or disturbed sleep is extremely common. For instance, thirty percent of employed adults report obtaining 6 or fewer hours of sleep per night, approximately one-third of all adults report significant sleep complaints, and the two most common sleep disorders, insomnia and sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), each have prevalence rates exceeding 10% in the adult population. Unfortunately, current approaches to treatment are limited . Story telling is another common soothing bedtime routine for children that uses pictures and writing. It is also a nursing intervention that can be implemented to comfort hospitalized children with acute illness and increase enthusiasm. Story telling is a recommended activity that enhances sleep duration in children. Furthermore, it is considered a positive bedtime routine, in addition to praying and brushing teeth, compared to maladaptive bedtime routine, such as watching television, playing with gadgets, and playing games with high-level activities . ;
