Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is defined as chronic respiratory inflammatory disease caused by smoking, an air pollutant that causes obstructed airflow from the lungs and is characterized by chronic cough with sputum, breathing difficulty. Sleep deprivation has profound effects on an individual's functioning abilities, whether they are in good or ill health. This study aims to examine the impact of Jacobson progressive muscle relaxation technique (JPMRT) on the sleep quality of hospitalized patients.
Materials and methods: This study's quasi-experimental pre-test-post-test control group design was used and included 30 COPD patients who met the research criteria in the experimental and another 30 patients in the control group. Pre-test was conducted on the first day with the demographical tools and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire and same day JPMRT was initiated, used twice a day for a total of 25 minutes for 5 days. For the control group, usual routine care of the hospital was provided. After 5 days post-test was conducted for both the groups.
Results: It was found that JPMRT improved the quality of sleep in experimental group compared with control group.
Conclusion: In this study, it was found that JPMRT is effective in the improvement of sleep quality of COPD patient. Improving the health of hospitalized patients can be done with routine care of nursing and hospital procedures without incurring any financial costs.
