About this study

Official title: Effects of Mindfulness Stress Reduction Program on Sleep Status, Stress and Quality of Life in Patients With Sleep Disorders: A Polysomnographic Study

Sleep problems, ranging from mild sleep disturbance to debilitating insomnia, are among the most common health problems occurring in adults, with an estimated prevalence of 35% to 48% (Morin et al., 2009; Mai and Buyss 2008). Insomnia is a fairly common sleep disorder characterized by difficulty falling asleep, difficulty staying asleep, or waking up too early despite adequate sleep opportunity, recurring at least three times a week and accompanied by significant stress or distress during the day (Morin and Jarrin, 2013). ). According to the American guidelines for the treatment of chronic insomnia published in 2017, pharmacotherapy and non-pharmacological treatment are the two main treatment methods for sleep disorders ( Sateia et al., 2017 ).Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) is an important type of non-pharmacological mindfulness-based intervention that effectively relieves insomnia by decentering (Banno et al., 2019).Regarding the effect of mindfulness intervention in sleep disorders, Ong and Moore suggest that mindfulness can improve sleep by reducing both primary and secondary arousal (Ong and Moore, 2020).Therefore, this study aims to expand the existing investigations by examining whether mindfulness meditation (MBSR) is associated with changes in objectively measured polysomnographic (PSG) sleep profiles of patients with sleep disorders who applied to the Sleep EMG department of Muş State Hospital, and to examine the changes in PSG sleep in the context of a randomized controlled trial. It aims to determine the effect on quality of life by associating it with subjectively reported sleep and stress changes.

Sleep problems, ranging from mild sleep disturbance to debilitating insomnia, are among the most common health problems occurring in adults, with an estimated prevalence of 35% to 48% (Morin et al., 2009; Mai and Buyss 2008). Insomnia is a fairly common sleep disorder characterized by difficulty falling asleep, difficulty staying asleep, or waking up too early despite adequate sleep opportunity, recurring at least three times a week and accompanied by significant stress or distress during the day (Morin and Jarrin, 2013). ). According to the American guidelines for the treatment of chronic insomnia published in 2017, pharmacotherapy and non-pharmacological treatment are the two main treatment methods for sleep disorders ( Sateia et al., 2017 ).Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) is an important type of non-pharmacological mindfulness-based intervention that effectively relieves insomnia by decentering (Banno et al., 2019).Regarding the effect of mindfulness intervention in sleep disorders, Ong and Moore suggest that mindfulness can improve sleep by reducing both primary and secondary arousal (Ong and Moore, 2020).A limited but growing body of evidence suggests that mindfulness and other types of meditation may improve sleep quality. Neuondorf et al., (2015) reviewed 112 research studies of insomnia or sleep disturbance testing a variety of different mind-body interventions, including meditation, and found that although the evidence was heterogeneous, limited, and potentially biased, mind-body training was a treatment option for patients. It has been shown that it can be accepted as (Neuendorf et al., 2015). A recent systematic review and meta-analysis focused on identifying and evaluating the clinical significance of different mindfulness-based interventions (MBI) on sleep in individuals with anxiety and depression, showing significant effects on sleep problem improvement across all MBI programs (Chan et al. al., 2022) .Therefore, this study aims to expand the existing investigations by examining whether mindfulness meditation (MBSR) is associated with changes in objectively measured polysomnographic (PSG) sleep profiles of patients with sleep disorders who applied to the Sleep EMG department of Muş State Hospital, and to examine the changes in PSG sleep in the context of a randomized controlled trial. It aims to determine the effect on quality of life by associating it with subjectively reported sleep and stress changes.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • CONSCIOUS AWARENESS STRESS REDUCTION PROGRAM APPLICATIONBehavioural

    CONSCIOUS AWARENESS STRESS REDUCTION PROGRAM APPLICATION Conscious Awareness Based Stress Reduction (BFTSA) intervention consists of seven sessions in total and is planned to be completed in a total of seven weeks, with one session per week and each session being 45 minutes. After the results of the PSG patients are determined according to the randomization criteria, they receive certain points from the sleep scale, it is planned to call the patients by phone and explain the meaning and importance of the study, the applications to be performed in the study and its duration. It is planned to hold online individual interviews with patients who agree to participate in this study.

Model description
Conscious awareness is a skill that is inherent in human nature and can be developed through training and programs. This skill will provide the individual with the opportunity to achieve inner peace, help him find ways to cope with stress and make him feel less anxiety. Internalization of the skills gained by doing conscious awareness practices is related to the participation of the individuals in the group in the process and their individual experiences in performing the practices. Although group support is effective in the acquisition of these skills, using the acquired skills in daily life is also important for the continuity of the level of conscious awareness (Mason and Hargreaves, 2001).
