This study will investigate the effect of nonpharmacological intervention in sleep quality, anxiety and delirium among adult ICU patients.
Background: Due to the intensive care unit (ICU) noisy environment, nearly 66% critically ill patientsseem to suffer from poor sleep quality, which can easily lead to complications, such as anxiety, delirium, prolong hospital stay, and even increased mortality.
Objective: This study will investigate the effect of nonpharmacological intervention in sleep quality, anxiety and delirium among adult ICU patients.
Methods: The design of this study is a randomized experimental study recruiting 154 patients from five adult ICUs in a teaching hospital located in the central southern Taiwan. The experimental group (n=77, nonpharmacological intervention, and the control group (n=77, routine care). The nonpharmacological intervention involves listening of 30 mins ocean wave music, aromatherapy of lavender essential oil, and eye masks and earplugs. Research measurement tools, including demographic data, physiological index questionnaire, Richards-Campbell sleep scale (RCSQ), Chinese Visin-style sleep scale, Chinese State -Trait Anxiety Inventory-1, visual analogue scale for anxiety, which will be measured five times, before intervention (T1), every 9AM for three days (T2, T3, T4), and ICU transferring day (T5). SPSS 26.0 will be used to analyze data by using descriptive statistics, chi-square test, pearson correlation, independent t-test, paired t-test, ANOVA, generalized estimating equation (GEE).
