摘要

更年期会带来许多生理和心理问题。这些问题对妇女、她们的配偶和婚姻关系产生了负面影响。因此，补充和综合的方法可能是管理更年期相关问题的另一种方法。目的探讨配偶背部按摩对绝经期女性睡眠质量、更年期症状及婚姻适应的影响。方法采用随机对照试验设计，采用前测和后测。63对夫妇被随机分为干预组（n= 33）和对照组（n= 30）。干预组女性的配偶也接受了背部按摩的培训。按摩时间为睡前15 分钟，每周2次，持续4周。采用匹兹堡睡眠质量指数（PSQI）、更年期症状评定量表（MSRS）和婚姻调整量表（MAS）收集数据。分析干预前（第一次随访）和干预后（最后一次随访）的数据。结果干预组妇女的更年期抱怨明显减少，睡眠质量得到改善（p<0.001）。此外，干预组夫妻的婚姻调整显著增加（p<0.001）。结论配偶背部按摩有助于减少女性的更年期抱怨，改善睡眠质量，提高夫妻的婚姻适应能力。这些结果很有希望使用背部按摩作为一种简单，安全，经济有效的方法来管理与更年期有关的问题。

The effect of back massage applied by spouses on sleep quality, menopausal complaints and marital adjustment in climacteric women

Introduction

Menopause brings many physical and psychosocial problems. These problems negatively affect women, their spouses, and marital relations. Therefore, complementary and integrative methods could be an alternative approach to manage menopause-related problems.

Objective

This study aimed to examine the effect of back massages applied by spouses on sleep quality, menopausal complaints and the marital adjustment of women in the climacteric period.

Methods

The study was designed as a randomized controlled trial with a pretest and a posttest. A total of 63 couples was randomized to the intervention group (n= 33) or control group (n= 30). Back massages were taught to the spouses of the women in the intervention group. The massage was applied 15 minutes before bedtime, twice a week for four weeks. Data were collected by using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), the Menopause Symptoms Rating Scale (MSRS) and the Marital Adjustment Scale (MAS). Data were analyzed before (the first follow-up) and after the intervention (the final follow-up).

Results

This study revealed that menopausal complaints were significantly reduced in women and sleep quality was improved in the intervention group (p<0.001). In addition, the marital adjustment of the couples significantly increased in the intervention group (p<0.001).

Conclusions

The findings showed that back massages applied by the spouse helped to reduce menopausal complaints in women, and improved sleep quality and increased the marital adjustment of the couples. These results are promising for using back massage as an easy, safe and cost-effective method to manage menopause-related problems.
