Objectives: Low quality sleep is one of the most common problems in old age. The present study aims to determine the effect of a sleep hygiene education program using Telephone Follow-Up (TFU) method on the sleep quality of the elderly. Methods & Materials: This quasi-experimental study was conducted on 80 eligible elderly people aged 60-74 years who were selected using a systematic random sampling method and were randomly assigned into intervention and control groups. The intervention group received a one-hour face-to-face education session on sleep hygiene. The TFU were carried out two times per week in the first month and once a week in the second month after intervention. The control group received routine care. The data collection tools were a demographic form and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire. The PSQI was completed for both groups immediately after the second month. Results: There was no statistically significant difference in the mean PSQI score before intervention in the intervention (8.02) and control (7.47) groups (P=0.32), but after the intervention, the mean PSQI score in the intervention group (5.42) was significantly reduced compared to the control group (7.67) (P<0.001). Conclusion: Sleep hygiene education program based on TFU improves the sleep quality of the elderly. It is recommended that health care providers use this method to improve the sleep quality of the elderly.

Background: Aging causes physiological changes which affect the quality of sleep. Supervised physical exercise is an important therapeutic resource to improve the sleep of the elderlies, however there is a low adherence to those type of programs, so it is necessary to implement an exercise program which is feasible and effective. The study aimed to test the hypothesis that a semi-supervised home exercise program, improves sleep quality and daytime sleepiness of elderlies of the community who present poor sleep quality. Methods: This was a randomized controlled trial study, conducted from May to September 2017, in Northeastern Brazil, with elderlies of the community aging 60 years old or older, sedentary, with lower scores or equal to 5 at the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and without cognitive decline. From one hundred ninety-one potential participants twenty-eight refused to participate, therefore, one hundred thirty-one (mean age 68 ± 7 years), and 88% female, were randomly assigned to an intervention group - IG (home exercise and sleep hygiene, n = 65) and a control group - CG (sleep hygiene only, n = 66). Sleep assessment tools were used: PSQI, Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) and clinical questionnaire of Berlin. The level of physical activity has been assessed by means of International Physical Activity Questionnaire adapted for the elderly (IPAQ) and Mini-Mental State Examination for cognitive decline. All participants were assessed before and after the 12-week intervention period and, also, the assessors were blind. Results: The IG showed significant improvement in quality of sleep with a mean reduction of 4.9 ± 2.7 points in the overall PSQI (p < 0.01) and in all its 7 components of evaluation (p < 0.05), and improvement of secondary endpoint, daytime sleepiness, a decline of 2.8 ± 2.2 points in the ESS (p < 0.01). Conclusion: Our results suggest that semi-supervised home exercise is effective in improving the quality of sleep and self-referred daytime sleepiness of sedentary elderlies of the community who presented sleep disorders.

IntroductionSleep disorders are common in clinical practice. However, they are relatively poorly understood by doctors. The aim of our study was to describe the management of insomnia by general practitioners (GPs).MethodsA cross-sectional survey was carried out during the month of Mai 2016. Among the 193 GPs randomly selected from different areas of Sfax, in Tunisia, 127 completed a questionnaire about the management of insomnia.ResultsAmong our participants, 46.5% stated that they often discuss the quality of sleep with their patients even when it is not their chief complaint. Forty-three percent reported that they are often consulted by insomniac patients. Twelve percent of GPs declared they know the “sleep diary”. Homeopathic treatment was the most prescribed first line medication (45.3%). Sleep hygiene measures were commonly recommended by 82.7% of the GPs. Relaxation therapy was known by 46.7% of the GPs and used by 26.7%. Sleep-restriction therapy was known and used by respectively 15.8% and 9.2% of participants. Discussing the quality of sleep with patients was correlated to: the frequency of solicitation for insomnia (P = 0.00), the knowledge of sleep diary (P = 0.031), and the recommendation of sleep hygiene measures (P = 0.032).ConclusionContinuous medical education, especially concerning non-pharmacological treatment measures, could drastically improve the management of insomnia by Tunisian GPs.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Introduction. The purpose of this study was to evaluate sleep quality among healthcare science students and to assess its association with sleep hygiene knowledge and practices, circadian typology and lifestyle factors. Material and Methods. The research was conducted as a cross-sectional questionnaire-based internet study on a sample of 268 students. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and The Self-Morningness-Eveningness Questionnaire were applied as research instruments to assess sleep quality and chronotypes respectively, while evaluation of the other variables was conducted using he Sleep Hygiene Knowledge Questionnaire, socio-demographic questionnaire and the questionnaire of lifestyle factors. Results. The average of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index global score for all students was 6.9 ? 3.2. The poor sleep quality (The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index > 5) was reported in 62.7% of students. Sleep efficiency less than 85% was found in 43.0% of students, and 78% of students reported daytime dysfunctionality. Sleep quality was significantly worse among female students; coffee, alcohol and energy drink consumers and long-term cell phone users. Only 11.9% of students were classified as the morning chronotype and they had the best quality of sleep and the best sleep hygiene knowledge and practices, whereas the evening chronotype had the worst quality of sleep. A significant negative correlation was identified between sleep hygiene knowledge (r = - 0.133) and practice (r = 0.501) and sleep quality whereby the lower t he Sleep Hygiene Knowledge Questionnaire and Sleep Hygiene Practice Scale scores follow a higher the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score. Conclusion. Majority of students had a suboptimal level of overall sleep quality, satisfactory knowledge of sleep hygiene, but they did not have the sleep hygiene practices which suggests that knowledge is not a factor of deterring from unhealthy behaviors.

INTRODUCTION: Bedtime restriction is effective for volunteer patients with primary insomnia. AIM: To determine the effectiveness of bedtime restriction in adult volunteers with primary insomnia. METHODS: Patients were recruited in response to articles in local newspapers. The study hypothesis was not given in the articles. Patients were assessed as to whether or not they had primary insomnia. They completed a two-week sleep diary after which they met the investigators and were randomised to either bedtime restriction and basic sleep hygiene or the control group with basic sleep hygiene only. A total of 224 potential participants applied to be in the study. Of the 52 who had primary insomnia, 45 were randomly allocated to either control or intervention group and only two did not complete the study. Randomisation was concealed and participants were blinded regarding the treatment. The primary outcome was also measured in a blinded fashion. RESULTS: The outcome evaluated was patient description of ‘better’ or ‘much better’ quality of sleep versus the ‘same’, ‘worse’ or ‘much worse’ quality of sleep at six weeks. Overall, 73% (16/22) of those in the intervention group were either having better or much better quality of sleep after treatment, while in the control group this was 35% (8/23). The number needed to treat was 3 [95% CI 2–11] for bedtime restriction and sleep hygiene versus sleep hygiene alone. DISCUSSION: This is the first study using bedtime restriction designed to be feasible in primary care by using a brief intervention and a patient-oriented outcome. KEYWORDS: Insomnia; primary health care; randomized controlled trial

Insomnia is highly prevalent, has associated daytime consequences which impair job performance and quality of life, and is associated with increased risk of comorbidities including depression. These practice parameters provide recommendations regarding behavioural and psychological treatment approaches, which are often effective in primary and secondary insomnia. These recommendations replace or modify those published in the 1999 practice parameter paper produced by the American Sleep Disorders Association. Methods: A quantitative research approach was considered as appropriate for present study. The study was conducted in Sri Manakula Vinayagar Medical College and Hospital at Puducherry with 6 week of time duration. Totally 50 sample were selected through Purposive sampling technique, self-Structured Questionnaire used to gathered data. Descriptive and Inferential analytical methods like three dependent Paired t-test and Chi-square were used to find the effectiveness of Sleep hygiene. Result: Study finding shows that Pre-test mean value is 10.53 (32 %) and the standard deviation value is 6.42, where as in post-test mean value is 30.18( 73 %) and Standard deviation value is 10. Mean value increased from 10.53 to 30.18, “t” value is 13.9 and p-value is 0.0005 which is statistically highly significant at the level of p < 0.001. It shows that Quality of Sleep was increased among Insomniac patients after administering the Sleep Hygiene. Conclusion: The study revealed that there was increased quality of Sleep among Insomniac Patients after the administration of Sleep Hygiene especially in Patient with absent of Psychiatric Disorder and Symptoms than Physical Disorder and Patient who were in age group of 26 - 45 years than other age group. Moreover educated patients were shows more effectiveness than other groups. The study findings were statistically significant at P< 0.001; this level of significance revealed that H1, H2, was supported in this present
