Filter by:The investigators planned to investigate the effect of close monitoring on compliance and the factors affecting compliance among patients receiving PAP treatment due to OSA.This study was a single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled study approved by the hospital's ethics committee.One hundred twenty-eight patients were randomized as group one or two as group 1 is the study and group 2 is the control group. The first group was called by phone on the 15th day to ask if there were any complaints or problems with the device. Sequentially, they were called for controls at the end of the first, third, and sixth months. The second group was accepted as the control group, following our clinic's standard procedure in the first and sixth months. The patients who came to the control were asked if there were any problems with the device and any difficulties in use, and they were again informed about the devices and masks.
This research adopts the uniform parallel hybrid research design; The quantitative data and qualitative data were collected at the same time, and then the quantitative and qualitative data were analyzed respectively. Finally, the two data sets were combined. Comprehensive interpretation of the study issues through complementarity and mutual validation of quantitative and qualitative data.
The aim of this project is to determine the effect of compression stockings on the complaints, well-being and sleep quality of pregnant women with restless legs syndrome (RLS). The research is a pretest-posttest randomized placebo-controlled experimental study. The study will be carried out with a total of 70 people, 35 in the compression stocking group and 35 in the placebo stocking group. Study data will be collected with RLS Diagnostic Criteria Questionnaire Form, Research Criteria Compliance Form, Personal Information Form, RLS Severity Rating Scale, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PUKI), WHO-5 and Implementation Satisfaction Form. Pregnant women in both groups will wear the stockings given for three weeks after the first interview. Data analysis obtained in the research will be performed in TURCOSA statistical software (Turcosa Analytics Ltd Co, Turkey, www.turcosa.com.tr).In comparisons, a value of p <0.05 will be considered statistically significant. In order to conduct the study, the necessary Academic Committee decision, Ethics Committee approval (December 08, 2021 and number 2021/781) and institutional permission were obtained. The individuals included in the study will be informed about the purpose of the research, their verbal consent will be obtained and the participant's informed consent form will be signed.
The purpose of our study is to examine the effects of a 4-week vinyasa yoga program on sleep-related and cardiovascular outcomes in adults with insomnia symptoms. This study will examine the following aims: To examine the effects of a 4-week vinyasa yoga program compared to a non-active control condition on subjective and objective sleep-related outcomes in adults who report insomnia symptoms. To examine the effects of a 4-week vinyasa yoga program compared to a non-active control on cardiovascular health. To examine the effects of a single session of vinyasa yoga compared to a non-active control condition on sleep- and cardiovascular-related outcomes collected overnight. Researchers will compare the yoga group and the non-active control group to see if there are any improvements in sleep and cardiovascular health.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of laughter therapy on the general health status, sleep quality, and stress level of nursing students.
Sleep disorders are highly prevalent all around the world and have a strong negative impact on quality of life (QoL). In Colombia, up to 60% of adults report any sleep disturbance and more than 45% have required medical assistance for this. There is abundant anecdotal and scientific evidence supporting the efficacy and safety of several plant extracts on sleep quality. In this context, the development of safe and effective natural products may have a positive impact on sleep and general QoL.
The crude prevalence rate of Parkinson's disease in Upper Egypt governorates ranging from 557-436/100,000 (Assiut and Qena governorates respectively) which was one of the highest prevalence of PD around the world .Parkinson's disease patients report having complaints of disrupted sleep anywhere from 60 to 98 %. This is one of the most common non-motor symptoms, and it is a substantial contributor to the diminished quality of life associated with Parkinson's disease. PD patients have poor sleep maintenance and fragmentation (Comella 2007, Khedr et al. 2013). Khedr et al (2013) found that; 78.6% out of 112 patients with PD had sleep disturbances with the commonest complaint being difficulty getting to sleep at night or staying asleep (46.4%) followed by vivid nightmares and night terrors (27.7%). In other studies, 80-90% of PD patients have had sleep difficulty with virtually all patients having symptoms at some time in the course of the disease .
Sleep Hygiene Study Abstract: INTRODUCTION Sleep is integral to the health of a person and can have multifaceted contributions to a person including their physical, cognitive, and psychosocial well-being. However, within a recent survey evaluating the sleep perception of patients within an acute rehabilitation unit (ARU), there was a high prevalence of reported sleep disturbances and poor sleep hygiene compared to at home (Davis et al., 2021). In addition, patients within an ARU generally have an extended length of stay-which could mean many nights of poor sleep hygiene. Given the importance of sleep in facilitating a person's health and recovery versus the challenges the hospital environment poses on patient's sleep hygiene, this study aims to examine the efficacy of a sleep hygiene toolkit provided to the patients admitted to ARU. The sleep hygiene toolkit includes multiple non-pharmaceutical resources addressing sensory stimulation and psychological and emotional needs. OBJECTIVE This study aims to evaluate the perception of sleep quality experienced by ARU patients utilizing the sleep hygiene toolkit. This study hypothesizes that with the use of a sleep hygiene toolkit, patients will report a positive impact on their sleep quality during their hospital stay. METHODOLOGY This is a within-subjects study design. All eligible participants will be given the sleep hygiene intervention administered for a period of five days. The sleep hygiene toolkit includes multiple resources including assistive devices (ie. eye masks and ear plugs), sensory-based tools (ie. aromatherapy, music, meditation, and breathing techniques), cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) activities (ie. addressing anxiety and worry), and education and training on sleep hygiene. The visual analog scales on the Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire will be used to assess patient's overall sleep perception pre- and post-intervention. CONCLUSION Given this prevalent area of need for patients admitted to ARU, occupational therapists (OT) can offer an additional way to address it. According to the Occupational Therapy Practice Framework (2020), OTs are well-equipped to provide comprehensive treatment to promote a person's sleep preparation and sleep participation. The results will determine the efficacy of a sleep hygiene toolkit for ARU patients in addressing their sleep needs-an important component in a patient's health and recovery during their hospital stay. SIGNIFICANCE OF TOPIC This study aims to highlight the barriers to successful participation in the occupation of sleep and rest for patients admitted to an acute rehabilitation unit (ARU). The creation of this sleep hygiene toolkit is to address a person's sleep preparation and sleep participation. Although sleep quality and its impact are a topic well studied, there is limited study on occupational therapy led interventions aimed to benefit the patient's sleep quality in an ARU setting.
