摘要
本实验研究旨在通过一项前瞻性随机对照试验,确定在线大笑瑜伽对更年期妇女睡眠质量和血管运动症状(VMS)的影响。参加更年期学校的约 36 名妇女被随机分为大笑瑜伽组(18 人)或对照组(18 人)。大笑瑜伽组参加了八节在线大笑瑜伽课程,每周两节,为期四周,而对照组没有接受任何干预。数据收集采用了描述性特征表、视觉模拟量表(VAS)和匹兹堡睡眠质量指数(PSQI)。与对照组相比,笑声瑜伽组在所有 VMS 方面的测试后 VAS 分数都明显较低(P .05),而干预组在测试前和测试后的 VAS 和 PSQI 分数上都有显著的统计学差异(P .
The Effect of Laughter Yoga on Vasomotor Symptoms and Sleep Quality in Menopausal Women: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
This experimental study aimed to determine the effects of online laughter yoga on the sleep quality and vasomotor symptoms (VMS) of menopausal women through a prospective, randomized controlled trial. About 36 women who attend the Menopause School were randomized into either the laughter yoga (n = 18) or the control group (n = 18). The laughter yoga group participated in eight online laughter yoga sessions, with two sessions per week for four weeks, whereas the control group did not receive any intervention. Data were collected using the Descriptive Characteristics Form, Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The laughter yoga group had significantly lower posttest VAS scores compared with the control group in all VMS ( P < .05). Furthermore, the posttest PSQI score of the laughter yoga group was significantly lower than that of the control group ( P < .05). Although there was no significant difference in the pretest and posttest scores obtained by the control group from the VAS and PSQI ( P > .05), the intervention group exhibited a statistically significant difference in their pretest and posttest VAS and PSQI scores ( P < .05; P < .001, respectively). The results indicate that laughter yoga is an effective method for reducing VMS and improving sleep quality.
期刊介绍:
Holistic Nursing Practice (HNP), The Science of Health and Healing, is a peer-reviewed bimonthly journal that explores holistic models of nursing practice. Content emphasizes complementary traditional and holistic nursing and healthcare practices. Articles include theory-based interventions and their outcomes, including: innovations in holistic nursing practice; research related to holistic nursing practice, health care, and policy; and values and ethical-legal issues related to holistic nursing practices. The holistic approach is a worldview that emphasizes the potential for health and healing in human systems rather than on disease process and deficit.
