Brief Summary

Sleep disorders (SDs) are one of the most frequent non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD), usually increasing in frequency over the course of the disease and disability progression. SDs include nocturnal and diurnal manifestations such as insomnia, REM sleep behavior disorder, and excessive daytime sleepiness. The causes of SDs in PD are numerous, including the neurodegeneration process itself, which can disrupt the networks regulating the sleep-wake cycle and deplete a large number of cerebral amines possibly playing a role in the initiation and maintenance of sleep.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• The Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale (PDSS).

  The Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale (PDSS) was developed by (Chaudhuri et al 2002) to assess sleep quality for patients with Parkinson's disease. The scoring system of PDSS scale is:0-30 very poor sleep, 31- 60 poor, 61- 90 neutral, 91- 120 good, 121- 150 very good sleep.

interventional group

EXPERIMENTAL

sleep program was done three times a week for 2 weeks for the study group (6 sessions in total). It took roughly 30 minutes for each session. sessions were demonstrated during the first 3 sessions, re-demonstration of all the 3 of other sessions. Over a course of two sessions, the older adults in the intervention group were taught how to perform sleep program. The telephone number of each subject was taken to check their consistency with the proposed nursing interventions.
