摘要

老年人的睡眠质量通常会受到影响,导致白天过度嗜睡、难以保持注意力、反应时间变慢、记忆困难和表现下降。针灸已被确立为一种替代疗法,但方法学研究仍需证实其对睡眠障碍的疗效。因此,我们设计了一项安慰剂对照试验,以评估3个穴位对住在养老院的老年人睡眠质量的影响。方法选取40名年龄平均±SD = 69.55±7.80的自述睡眠障碍老年受试者,分为实验组(n = 20)和对照组(n = 20)。参与者按1:1的分配比例随机分配。在基线和两周后获得匹兹堡睡眠质量指数(PSQI)和Epworth嗜睡量表(ESS)评分。实验组患者每日针刺神门穴(HT-7)、百会穴(GV-20)、印堂穴(EX-HN-3) 30分钟,连续2周,对照组患者在各自干预期间给予安慰剂穴。结果针灸治疗2周后,干预结果显示PSQI各成分及整体PSQI评分均显著降低(p <0.001), ESS评分显著升高(p <0.001),实验组与对照组比较。结论两周针灸干预对老年人睡眠质量有显著的正向影响。

Influence of acupuncture with three specific acu-points on quality of sleep in residents of an elderly nursing home in rural India: A pilot randomized placebo-controlled trial

Background

Quality of sleep is usually compromised in the geriatric population resulting in excessive daytime sleepiness, difficulty sustaining attention, slowed response time, difficulty with memory, and decreased performance. Acupuncture has been established as an alternative therapy, but methodological research still needs to verify its efficacy in sleep disturbances. Hence, a pilot placebo-controlled trial was designed to assess 3 acupuncture point's effect on sleep quality in the geriatric population staying in a nursing home.

Methods

A total of 40 elderly subjects with self-reported sleep disturbance (age with mean± SD = 69.55 ± 7.80) were recruited and allocated to two groups comprising an experimental (n = 20) and a control group (n = 20). Participants were randomly allocated with an allocation ratio of 1:1. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) scores were obtained at baseline and following two weeks. Subjects in the experimental group received needling of Shenmen (HT-7), Baihui (GV-20) and Yintang (EX-HN-3) acupoints for 30 min per day for two weeks, and the control group received placebo points during the respective interventions.

Results

After two weeks of acupuncture, the intervention result showed a significant reduction in all components of PSQI and global PSQI scores (p < 0.001) and a significant increase in ESS score (p < 0.001) in the experimental group compared to the control group.

Conclusion

The study reveals that two weeks of acupuncture intervention significantly positively affect sleep quality in older adults.

期刊介绍: Advances in Integrative Medicine (AIMED) is an international peer-reviewed, evidence-based research and review journal that is multi-disciplinary within the fields of Integrative and Complementary Medicine. The journal focuses on rigorous quantitative and qualitative research including systematic reviews, clinical trials and surveys, whilst also welcoming medical hypotheses and clinically-relevant articles and case studies disclosing practical learning tools for the consulting practitioner. By promoting research and practice excellence in the field, and cross collaboration between relevant practitioner groups and associations, the journal aims to advance the practice of IM, identify areas for future research, and improve patient health outcomes. International networking is encouraged through clinical innovation, the establishment of best practice and by providing opportunities for cooperation between organisations and communities.
