Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Insomnia severity index
Time Frame: 10 days
The Insomnia Severity Index Scale (ISI) will be used, which scale ranges from 0 to 28, with higher scores representing more severe insomnia. Specifically, 0-5 points represent excellent sleep quality, 6-10 points mean good sleep quality, 11-15 points indicate average sleep quality, and 16-21 points represent poor sleep quality.
10 days
Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index
Time Frame: 10 days
The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index Scale (PSQI) will be used, which scale ranges from 0 to 21, with higher scores representing poorer sleep quality. In detail, 0-7 points represent insomnia of no clinical significance, 8-14 points mean sub-clinical insomnia, 15-21 points indicate moderate clinical insomnia, and 22-28 points represent severe clinical insomnia.
10 days
