of the requirements for the award of the degree of master of science in Nursing
at ERA college of Nursing, Lucknow.
Aim: to improve the quality of sleep among admitted
patients.
Objectives: (1) Assess the pre- test and post- test quality of
sleep among the patients in Experimental group and Control group. (2)
Evaluate the effect of Warm Water Foot Bath on quality of Sleep among the
patients in Experimental group. (3) Association between pre- test and post-test
quality of Sleep among the patients in Experimental group and Control group
with selected demographic variables.
Methodology: A Quasi-Experimental study was carried out to
assess the effect of warm water foot bath. 30 samples (15 control and 15
experimental group) were selected by using non probability Convenience sampling
technique. The quality of sleep was assessed by using The Structured Sleep
Quality Scale.
Results: The finding of the study shows that the
experimental group pre-test mean is 9.2 with the Standard Deviation 1.67. the
post-test mean is 1.8 with the Standard Deviation 1.35. In control group pre-test mean is 6.6 with the Standard
Deviation 2.74. The post-test mean is 6.4 with the Standard Deviation 2.60. In
the experimental group pre-test mean is 9.2 with the Standard Deviation 1.67.
the post-test mean is 1.8 with the Standard Deviation 1.35. Mean difference
between pre and post test is 7.4; standard error is 0.75 and paired ‘t’ test
value of experimental group is 6.05 which is highly significant.
