Sleep Disorder Mindfulness Stress Reduction Intervention

Sponsor: Muş Alparslan University

Summary

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.
