Résumé : | The purpose of this study was to explore the effectiveness of an essential oil massage on the sleep quality of the critical care nurses. A randomized controlled trial with single blind was conducted. A total of 112 critical care nurses were recruited. Participants were randomly allocated to either the experimental or control group. Only the experimental group received four sessions consisting of a lavender essential oil massage. The results of this study revealed that the overall subjective sleep quality and objective sleep parameters did not reach a significant difference between the two groups before and after the intervention, but a progressive the subjective sleep quality score reduction was observed in the experimental group. The findings of this study might provide information to critical care nurses who are under high pressure to find the optional alternative way of managing their self-sleep health by employing safe and convenient alternatives through aromatherapy. |
