Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- PSQI (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) [at baseline (before the treatment)]
PUKI is a 19-item self-report scale that evaluates sleep quality and disturbance in the past month. The total score ranges from 0 to 21. A total score greater than 5 indicates "poor sleep quality"
- PSQI (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) [2 weeks after baseline (at the end of treatment)]
PUKI is a 19-item self-report scale that evaluates sleep quality and disturbance in the past month. The total score ranges from 0 to 21. A total score greater than 5 indicates "poor sleep quality"
- PSQI (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index) [6 weeks after baseline (one month after the end of treatment)]
PUKI is a 19-item self-report scale that evaluates sleep quality and disturbance in the past month. The total score ranges from 0 to 21. A total score greater than 5 indicates "poor sleep quality"
- NEADL (Nottingham extended activities of daily living ) scale [at baseline (before the treatment)]
It consists of 4 sub-sections: mobility (6 items), kitchen (5 items), indoor (5 items) and leisure time activities (6 items). The answer to each question has a rank between 0 and 3 points. The sum of the rank values of 22 items varies between 0 and 66 points, with 0-worst and 66-best values in daily activities.
