Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of mindfulness training on sleep quality and psychological state of perimenopausal patients with insomnia in the outpatient department.
Methods A total of 72 perimenopausal patients who visited the outpatient department for the first time and were diagnosed as insomnia were selected as the research objects, and were divided into study group (36 patients) and control group (36 patients). The control group was treated with traditional medicine and routine health education, while the study group was treated with mindfulness training to improve their sleep quality and psychological state. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index Scale (PSQI) was used to evaluate the patients' sleep quality, Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) to evaluate the patients' anxiety degree, and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) to evaluate the depression status. After 8 weeks, the improvement of sleep quality and mood state was evaluated.
Results After intervention, the PSQI score of the study group was lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). After intervention, HAMA score and HAMD score of the study group were lower than those of the control group (P < 0.05). Sleep quality was correlated with anxiety and depression (P < 0.01).
Conclusion Mindfulness training can improve the sleep quality of perimenopausal women with insomnia, relieve the degree of depression and anxiety, and has the same effect as drug treatment.
