Study On Improving Sleep Quality And Emotional State Of Clinical Nurses By Auricular Point Pressing Bean Method

Object:Auricular point pressing bean therapy was used to intervene the clinical nurses with sleep quality problems.the changes of sleep quality and emotional state were observed before and after intervention.In order to improve the sleep quality and emotional state of clinical nurses,effective intervention measures were put forward,and the self-health management of sleep quality and emotional state was further promoted.Methods:The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index,PSQI)was used to evaluate the sleep quality of 482 clinical nurses in a Grade 3A hospital of Xinjiang production and Construction Region.according to the evaluation results,According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,108 clinical nurses with sleep quality problems(PSQI > 7)were selected as the subjects of the study.Using the method of randomized controlled trial,108 clinical nurses with sleep quality problems were divided into experimental group(n = 36),intervention control group(n = 36)and blank control group(n = 36).The experimental group was given auricular points to help sleep and press beans.The intervention control group was given auricular points around the auricle to press beans,while the blank control group was not given any intervention measures.The experimental group and the intervention control group changed ear paste every 3 days,bilateral auricular points alternately,a course of 10 days,a total of 3 courses of intervention,30 days;the blank control group was only observed for 30 days.Before intervention and 30 days after intervention,Pittsburgh Sleep quality Index(PSQI)and emotional State scale(Profile of mood states,POMS)were used to evaluate the sleep quality and emotional state of the three groups of nurses.according to the results of the evaluation,the sleep quality and emotional state of the three groups of nurses were evaluated.To evaluate the effect of different intervention methods.The data were analyzed by SPSS20.0 statistical software,and the age,length of service and the number of nurses in each department were statistically tested by variance analysis and chi-square test,and the changes of PSQI and POMS scores before and after intervention in each group were compared within the group.The t test of two pairs of samples or the nonparametric test of two pairs of samples were used to analyze,the PSQI and POMS scores of the three groups were compared before and after intervention,and the statistical tests were carried out by analysis of variance or nonparametric test of multiple independent samples.All the test results,p < 0.05 as the difference was statistically significant.Results:1.A total of 108 subjects were enrolled in this study.in the course of the study,1 case left in the experimental group,1 case in the intervention control group withdrew from a major disease,1 case left and was excluded,and finally a total of 105 cases were enrolled in the group,35 cases in the experimental group.There were 34 cases in the intervention control group and 36 cases in the blank control group.2.After intervention,the total score of PSQI and the scores of each factor in the experimental group were significantly lower than those before intervention(p < 0.05).The scores and total scores of other factors except "self-esteem" in POMS were significantly lower than those before intervention(p < 0.05).3.After intervention,the total scores of PSQI and POMS and the scores of each factor in the intervention control group were not significantly different from those before intervention,and the difference was not statistically significant(p > 0.05).4.After observation,the scores of other factors except "sleep time" and the total score of PSQI in the blank control group had no significant change compared with those before observation,and the difference was not statistically significant(p > 0.05).The total score of POMS and the scores of each factor had no significant change compared with those before observation,and the difference was not statistically significant(p > 0.05).5.After intervention,there were significant differences in the total scores of PSQI and POMS and the scores of each factor among the three groups(p < 0.05),and there were differences in the scores of PSQI and POMS between the experimental group and the intervention control group and the blank control group.The difference was statistically significant(p < 0.05),but there was no significant difference in PSQI and POMS scores between the intervention control group and the blank control group(p > 0.05).Conclusion:1.The method of pressing beans at auricular points can effectively improve the sleep quality of nurses.the commonly used sleeping points are Shenmen,subcortical,heart,sympathetic,pillow and endocrine,and so on.2.The implementation of auricular point pressing bean method at sleep-aiding acupoints can not only effectively improve the sleep quality of nurses,but also significantly improve the emotional state of nurses.3.The operation of auricular point pressing bean method is simple and easy to operate.as a medical professional and technical personnel,it is easier for nurses to master and apply auricular point pressing bean technology,which can better inherit and develop traditional Chinese medicine nursing technology.Auricular point pressing bean therapy can improve their own sleep quality and quality of life,further ensure the quality and safety of nursing work,but also play an exemplary role in promoting patients’ sleep health.
