This study was conducted to determine the effects of sleep hygiene education and reflexology on sleep quality and fatigue in the patients receiving chemotherapy.
The sample of the study consisted of 167 patients (84 in the experimental and 83 in the control group). The data were collected between October 2016 and November 2017 using an Introductory Information Form, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS).
The mean -test score from the PSQI was 5.5 ± 2.1 for the experimental group and 13 ± 2.4 for the control group. The mean post- test score from the FSS was 22.6 ± 1.9 for the experimental group and 41.0 ± 4.2 for the control group. The difference between the mean scores of the groups was statistically significant (p = 0.000).
The patients receiving chemotherapy had lower mean scores from the PSQI and the FSS while they had increased sleep quality and decreased fatigue after sleep hygiene education and reflexology.
本研究旨在确定睡眠卫生教育和反射疗法对接受化疗的患者的睡眠质量和疲劳感的影响。
本研究的样本包括 167 名患者(实验组 84 名,对照组 83 名)。数据收集于 2016 年 10 月至 2017 年 11 月期间,使用了简介信息表、匹兹堡睡眠质量指数(PSQI)和疲劳严重程度量表(FSS)。
实验组的 PSQI 平均测试得分为 5.5±2.1,对照组为 13±2.4。实验组的 FSS 平均后测得分为 22.6±1.9,对照组为 41.0±4.2。组间平均得分差异具有统计学意义(p=0.000)。
接受化疗的患者的 PSQI 和 FSS 平均得分较低,而在接受睡眠卫生教育和反射疗法后,他们的睡眠质量提高,疲劳感减轻。
