Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To investigate methods for improving sleep in elderly residents of long-term care insurance facilities, an intervention was conducted to reduce the frequency of diaper changes performed at a fixed time during the night for residents requiring nighttime diaper changes. Changes in sleep variables were examined to evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention and characteristics of the elderly. For elderly female residents who did not complain of urgency and required diaper changes throughout the day, it was presumed that the intervention to reduce nighttime diaper changes was related to cognitive function and ADL levels. Additionally, for female elderly residents who could communicate urgency, nighttime diaper changes were suggested to contribute to factors such as difficulty returning to sleep or mid-sleep awakenings.
