description | Introduction: Despite sound evidence on the importance of sleep for human beings and its role in healing, hospitalized patients still experience sleep disruption with deleterious effects. Many factors affecting patients’ sleep can be removed or minimized. We evaluated the efficacy of a multicomponent Good Sleep Bundle (GSB) developed to improve patients’ perceived quality of sleep, through which we modified environmental factors, timing of nighttime clinical interventions, and actively involved patients in order to positively influence their experience during hospitalization. Methods: In a prospective, before and after controlled study, two different groups of 65 patients each were admitted to a cardiothoracic unit in two different periods, receiving the usual care (control group) and the GSB (GSB group), respectively. Sleep quality was evaluated by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) at the admission, discharge, and 30 days after discharge in all patients enrolled. Comparisons between the two groups evaluated changes in PSQI score from admission to discharge (primary endpoint), and from admission to 30 days after discharge (secondary endpoint). Results: The mean PSQI score difference between admission and discharge was 4.54 (SD 4.11) in the control group, and 2.05 (SD 4.25) in the GSB group. The mean difference in PSQI score change between the two groups, which was the primary endpoint, was 2.49 (SD 4.19). This difference was highly significant (p = 0.0009). Conclusion: The GSB was associated with a highly significant reduction of the negative effects that hospitalization produces on patients’ perceived quality of sleep compared with the usual care group. |
