Investigation of the sleep quality at home of the postoperative patients with fecal ostomies / 中国实用护理杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To investigate the sleep quality at home and the influencing factors in patients with colorectal tumor after enterostomy.@*Methods@#Using convenience sampling method, during March 2016 to December 2017 in Anhui Provincial Cancer Hospital wound and stoma outpatient, choose 276 patients with enterostomy (including temporary enterostomy and permanent enterostomy), using self-made general questionnaire ostomy, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and self nursing competence scale to investigate them.@*Results@#The total PSQI score of enterostomy patients was 6.39±4.07, among which 150 patients (57.0%) had poor sleep (PSQI>7). The score of the 7 dimensions of PSQI from high to low was sleep time (1.22±1.05), sleep time (1.12±0.98), subjective sleep quality (1.00 ±0.92), sleep disorder (1.02±0.95), sleep efficiency (0.95±0.43), daytime dysfunction (0.83±0.76), hypnotic drugs (0.25±0.24).There were statistically significant differences in sleep quality among patients with different ages (Z=-2.937), duration of stoma (t=3.450-3.896), types of stoma (t=3.998-4.011), whether or not they had a history of leakage within 1 month (t=3.454-6.774), whether or not they had bloating bags (t=3.230-4.001), stoma complications (t=2.976-3.582), enterostomy self-care knowledge (Z=-3.202, t=3.971) and nursing skills (t=3.061)(P<0.05).@*Conclusions@#The present study shows that the sleep quality of patients with enterostomy is generally poor, and targeted measures should be taken to reduce its incidence or to intervene in time.
