Abstract

Background & Objective: Complaints regarding sleep disturbances are common among older people during HOSPITALIZATION, and if timely proper interventions have not been taken, adverse complications will be followed. Little information exists about the lived experiences of older people, especially, older women, on this issue. The purpose of this study was to explain older women's experiences of DISTURBED SLEEP and the factors affecting it during the HOSPITALIZATION, and the ways which may improve the sleep and its quality in these patients.Materials & Methods: In this qualitative research which conducted during the year 1388, eighteen participants (all females in the age range of 65-81 years) selected through a purposeful sampling from three university-affiliated hospitals in Tehran. In depth interviews were conducted and continued, until the saturation was achieved. The gathered data analysed using content analysis approachResults: Four main contributing categories were emerged: changes in sleep-wakefulness cycle, environmental factors, individual factors, and the ways of dealing with sleep disturbances. Results showed that through understanding the sleep disturbance and the factors influencing it during HOSPITALIZATION from the perspectives of older women, the nursing personnel would be able to better evaluate and respond to these patients' sleep needs.Conclusion: Participation of older hospitalized patients in designing and implementing strategies to improve their sleep is recommended.
