Abstract

Aim: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between dyspnea and sleep quality in lung cancer patients. Methods: This descriptive correlational study was carried out between October 2020 and May 2021. The population of the study consisted of all patients who were diagnosed with lung cancer and receiving treatment as inpatients in the Medical Oncology inpatient clinics and outpatient Chemotherapy Unit at İnönü University Turgut Özal Medical Center. The sample included patients who met the inclusion criteria and agreed to participate in the study. The study was completed with 115 patients. The data were collected using a Personal Information Form, the Cancer Dyspnea Scale, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. ANOVA, independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis Test, Spearman and Pearson correlation coefficients, and linear regression analysis were used to evaluate the data. Results: The mean age of the patients was 60.94±10.62, the mean Cancer Dyspnea Scale score was 27.43±11.71, and the mean total Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index score was 14.60±3.06. There was a positive correlation between dyspnea scores and sleep quality (p<0.05), while the regression analysis results showed that the total Cancer Dyspnea Scale scores had a statistically significant positive effect on Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index scores (p<0.05). Conclusion: There is a negative relationship between dyspnea and sleep quality. As the dyspnea level of patients increases, their sleep quality decreases. It is recommended to plan interventions to reduce dyspnea in patients with sleep disorders.

Abstract

Amaç: Bu araştırmanın amacı, akciğer kanserli bireylerde dispne ile uyku kalitesi arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemektir. Yöntem: Tanımlayıcı ilişkisel olarak yapılan bu araştırma, Ekim 2020- Mayıs 2021 tarihleri arasında yapılmıştır. Araştırmanın evrenini; İnönü Üniversitesi Turgut Özal Tıp Merkezi Medikal Onkoloji servisinde yatarak tedavi gören ve Kemoterapi Ünitesinde ayaktan tedavi gören tüm akciğer kanseri tanısı almış hastalar, örneklemini ise; bu hastalar arasından araştırmaya katılmayı kabul eden, araştırmaya alınma kriterlerine uyan hastalar oluşturmuştur. Çalışma 115 hasta ile tamamlanmıştır. Veriler Tanıtıcı Özellikler Veri Formu, Kanser Dispne Ölçeği ve Pittsburgh Uyku Kalite İndeksi ölçekleri kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Verilerin değerlendirilmesinde ANOVA, bağımsız örneklerde t-testi, Mann-Whitney U testi, Kruskal-Wallis Testi, Spearman ve Pearson korelasyon katsayıları ve lineer regresyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Akciğer kanserli hastaların yaş ortalaması 60.94±10.62, Kanser dispne ölçeği toplam puanı 27.43±11.71, Pittsburgh Uyku Kalitesi İndeksi ölçek toplam puanı 14.60±3.06 olarak saptanmıştır. Akciğer kanserli hastaların dispne ile uyku kalitesi arasında pozitif korelasyon olduğu (p<0.05), regresyon analizinde ise Kanser dispne ölçeği toplam puanının Pittsburgh Uyku Kalitesi İndeksi puanı üzerine pozitif yönde istatistiksel anlamlı etkisi olduğu saptanmıştır (p<0.05). Sonuç: Dispne ile uyku kalitesi arasında negatif yönde bir ilişki vardır. Hastaların dispne düzeyleri arttıkça, uyku bozukluğu düzeyleri de artmaktadır. Uyku bozukluğu yaşayan hastalarda dispnenin değerlendirilip, azaltılmasına yönelik girişimler planlanması önerilmektedir.
