| description | Complaints of an inability to sleep are common occurrences during hospitalization of
elderly people and often left unmanaged. The aim of this descriptive study is to determine
the factors affecting sleep disturbances among geriatric patients during hospitalization in
Hospital Universiti Sains Malaysia. A purposive sample of 100 geriatric patients who
were admitted to the selected surgical and medical ward were included in this study. Data
was collected through a modified questionnaire combination from past study literatures
done by using SPSS software 20.0. Based on descriptive analysis, the prevalence of sleep
Chi-Square Test was used to test the relationship between environmental factors,
psychological factors and physiological factor with sleep disturbances. Apart from that,
the test also was used to study the relationship between sleep disturbances and degree of
daytime sleepiness. The results shows that there is a significant relationship between
environmental factor of noise and sleep disturbances with p = 0.031. Two sources of
with p = 0.027 and p = 0.021 respectively. Findings from the study show a significant
relationship between sleep disturbances and degree of daytime sleepiness with p - 0.006.
In conclusion, once the contributing factors known, appropriate interventions could be
implemented to minimize the occurrences. |
