The Effect of Eye Mask and Music on Sleep Quality and Delirium in Patients Monitored in Intensive Care Unit
After abdominal surgery, most patients experience problems such as respiratory complications, surgical wound infection, cardiac problems, renal failure, delirium, and insomnia, along with surgical trauma and underlying comorbidities. Postoperative delirium (POD) is an adverse postoperative complication that can occur in patients of all ages, from children to the elderly. Effective non-pharmacological treatment approaches for delirium include using an orientation board, calendar, clock, ensuring hydration, improving sleep quality, therapeutic activities, providing companionship of family members, and building private rooms. This study will be conducted as a randomized controlled and experimental study to determine the effect of eye patch and music on sleep quality and delirium in patients followed after abdominal surgery in the surgical intensive care unit.

It was planned to include a total of 34 patients who underwent abdominal surgery, 17 in the experimental group and 17 in the control group.

During the data collection phase, the Patient Information Form, Richard-Campbell Sleep Scale, Nursing Delirium Screening Scale and Richmond Agitation-Sedation Scale, will be used.
