About this study

Official title: The Effect of Aromatherapy Massage Applied to Intensive Care Patients on Sleep Quality

Sleep disturbance is one of the most common complaints of patients admitted to ICU. Insufficient sleep in intensive care units may be associated with environmental reasons such as excessive light at night, loud warning sounds and mechanical ventilation alarms, as well as non-environmental factors, including the situation at the time of admission. Sleep assessment is subjective in nature, so it is difficult to perform in the ICU. Since communication with the patient is prevented, clear information about perceived rest and disturbing factors cannot be provided. For this reason, night rest is an issue that is often forgotten and ignored. This study applied a mixture of lavender, medicinal chamomile and neroli oil (in 20 ml of sweet almond oil; lavender oil 2 drops, medicinal chamomile 4 drops, neroli oil 6 drops) to patients who were monitored in intensive care on high-flow and oxygen, once a day for three days. This study will be conducted to determine the effect of aromatherapy massage applied for a total of 30 minutes on sleep quality.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Patient Introduction Form

    In the "Patient Introduction Form" prepared by the researcher based on the literature in order to obtain information about the characteristics of the patients who will constitute the sample, the patients' medical diagnosis, age, gender, chronic diseases, length of stay in intensive care, use of analgesic, sedative and hypnotic drugs used, normal sleep hours at night were included. There are questions about (sleep duration, daytime sleep, sleep hours, sleep aids used, etc.).

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Patient Follow-up Form

    The patient follow-up form was created by the researcher and will include the visual comparison sleep scale follow-up results, the effects of the application (whether side effects develop, its effect on the application area, the patient's condition, etc.) and the dosage of the hypnotic and sedative drugs the patient took in the intensive care unit during the study. The sleep score results of the patients will be recorded on the patient follow-up form by the nurses who collected the data of the study the morning after the application (08), and the effects of the application will also be recorded by the researcher.

    Measured: 1 year
