Sponsor's own description

Aim and objectives: To determine the efficacy of foot reflexology versus standard care for improvement of the sleep quality of postpartum women following vaginal birth. Background: Sleeplessness is one of the major problems experienced by women in the postpartum period following vaginal birth. Design: A single-blind, randomized controlled trial was conducted between July 2016 and March 2017. Methods: In this trial, a total of 54 postpartum women were divided into the intervention group (n= 24) and control group (n= 30). In the intervention group, four sessions foot reflexology was applied for 15 minutes in each foot, every other days between postpartum 14th- 20th day. Measures included daily and nighttime sleep durations and Postpartum Sleep Quality Scale (PSQS) scores. This study was used the CONSORT scheme.
