“…Most studies indicated positive findings ( n = 24) of non-pharmacological interventions in improving nighttime sleep outcomes [ 21 – 28 , 30 , 32 , 34 , 39 , 42 , 44 , 48 – 50 , 57 – 63 ] whereas 11 studies reported mixed findings (both positive and none) [ 29 , 31 , 36 , 43 , 45 – 47 , 51 , 53 , 64 , 65 ]. Although reporting other positive outcomes, 19 studies found no change in nighttime sleep quality after the intervention [ 33 , 35 , 37 , 38 , 40 , 41 , 52 , 54 – 56 , 66 – 74 ]. The results differed among location sites, with studies conducted in assisted-living facilities reporting a higher proportion of positive findings than those in nursing homes (70 and 35.7%, respectively).…”

“…These are interventions that originated outside mainstream medicine, are administered by a practitioner or clinical staff member, and are received by touch, smell, or ingestion. Two studies examining the effect of massage alone [ 69 , 74 ] did not find improvements in sleep, and one study combining massage with lavender aromatherapy [ 29 ] reported mixed findings. Other touch modalities positively improved sleep, including transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation [ 48 ] and therapeutic touch [ 62 ].…”

BackgroundDisturbances in sleep and circadian rhythms are common among residents of long-term care facilities. In this systematic review, we aim to identify and evaluate the literature documenting the outcomes associated with non-pharmacological interventions to improve nighttime sleep among long-term care residents.MethodsThe Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews guided searches of five databases (MEDLINE, Embase, CINAHL, Scopus, and Cochrane Library) for articles reporting results of experimental or quasi-experimental studies conducted in long-term care settings (nursing homes, assisted-living facilities, or group homes) in which nighttime sleep was subjectively or objectively measured as a primary outcome. We categorized each intervention by its intended use and how it was administered.ResultsOf the 54 included studies evaluating the effects of 25 different non-pharmacological interventions, more than half employed a randomized controlled trial design (n = 30); the others used a pre-post design with (n = 11) or without (n = 13) a comparison group. The majority of randomized controlled trials were at low risk for most types of bias, and most other studies met the standard quality criteria. The interventions were categorized as environmental interventions (n = 14), complementary health practices (n = 12), social/physical stimulation (n = 11), clinical care practices (n = 3), or mind-body practices (n = 3). Although there was no clear pattern of positive findings, three interventions had the most promising results: increased daytime light exposure, nighttime use of melatonin, and acupressure.ConclusionsNon-pharmacological interventions have the potential to improve sleep for residents of long-term care facilities. Further research is needed to better standardize such interventions and provide clear implementation guidelines using cost-effective practices.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s12877-018-0794-3) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Yaşlı bireylerin önemli bir kısmında uyku bozukluğu görülmektedir. Uyku bozukluklarının tedavisinde genel olarak farmakolojik ve nonfarmakolojik olmak üzere iki temel yaklaşım söz konusu olmakla birlikte, non-farmakolojik girişimlerin önemli bir kısmı hemşireler tarafından bağımsız uygulanabilir. Uyku bozukluklarının varlığını gösteren fiziksel ve ruhsal semptomlar "Semptom Yönetimi Teorisi" kullanılarak birey tarafından doğru şekilde tanımlanabilir, yönetim stratejileri birey ile birlikte planlanabilir ve sunulan bakımın sonuçları kapsamlı bir şekilde değerlendirilebilir. "Semptom Yönetimi Teorisi", geçmişte normal uyku düzeni, bozulmuş uyku ve uyku sorunlarının incelendiği kimi hemşirelik çalışmalarında kullanılmış olan ve bu amaçla kullanılabilecek uygun bir teoridir. Bu bağlamda bu derleme makalede "Semptom Yönetimi Teorisi" tanıtılarak yaşlılarda uyku bozukluklarının yönetiminde semptomları tanımlama, hemşirelik girişimlerini planlama ve girişim sonuçlarını iyileştirmede nasıl kullanılabileceği açıklanmıştır.

Purpose: The purpose of this case report was to investigate the effects of massage therapy on the sleep patterns of a woman with narcolepsy.Participant: The 23-year-old woman's primary symptoms included excessive daytime sleepiness and periodic leg movements (PLM), which were associated with her diagnoses of both narcolepsy and cataplexy.Intervention: Five 45-minute massage therapy treatments were administered over a five-week period. The patient's sleep patterns were recorded each week before the treatment. A final measurement was recorded in the sixth week. The sleep patterns were monitored using the Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionnaire, which included ten visual analogue scales.Results: The results of this case report included an improvement in getting to sleep by 148%, an improvement in quality of sleep by 1100%, an improvement in awake following sleep by 121%, and an improvement in behaviour following wakening by 28% using the Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionnaire.Conclusion: This case report suggests that massage therapy had a positive effect on this patient with narcolepsy. Further research is needed to investigate the effects of massage therapy on narcolepsy and sleep patterns.
