Sleep disorder in haemodialysis patients can lead to disturbance in their psychosocial function and interpersonal relations, and reduced quality of life. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of acupressure on the quality of sleep of haemodialysis patients.
In a randomised controlled trial, 108 haemodialysis patients were randomly divided into three groups: true acupressure, placebo acupressure, and no treatment. The two acupressure groups received treatment three times a week for 4 weeks during dialysis. Routine care only was provided for the no treatment group. The main study outcome was sleep quality.
The total Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score decreased significantly from 11.9±3.13 to 6.2±1.93 in the true acupressure group, from 11.3±3.69 to 10.6±3.82 in the sham acupressure group, and from 10.9±4.10 to 10.7±3.94 in the no treatment group. There was a significant difference between groups (p<0.001).
Acupressure seems to have a positive effect on the sleep quality in haemodialysis patients.

血液透析患者的睡眠障碍会导致其心理社会功能和人际关系紊乱,生活质量下降。本研究旨在探讨指压对血液透析患者睡眠质量的影响。
在一项随机对照试验中,108例血液透析患者被随机分为三组:真指压组、安慰剂指压组和不治疗组。两个指压组在透析期间每周接受3次治疗,共4周。不治疗组仅提供常规护理。主要研究结局为睡眠质量。
真指压组匹兹堡睡眠质量指数总分从11.9±3.13显著降至6.2±1.93,假指压组从11.3±3.69降至10.6±3.82,不治疗组从10.9±4.10降至10.7±3.94。组间差异有统计学意义(p<0.001)。
指压似乎对血液透析患者的睡眠质量有积极影响。
