12. Juli 2026 aktualisiert von: Adly A Adam

Effect of Diaphragmatic Breathing on Sleep Disorders in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome

Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder in females in reproductive age and not completely understood. Women with PCOS appear to have an increased frequency of sleep problems. Diaphragmatic Breathing (DB) exercises has positive effects on improving sleep quality. The purpose of this study will evaluate the effect of diaphragmatic breathing exercises on improving sleep quality in polycystic ovarian syndrome women.

Studienübersicht

Detaillierte Beschreibung

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is one of the most prevalent metabolic and reproductive disorders impacting women of reproductive age. Difficulty falling asleep and maintaining sleep has been reported among women with PCOS. Taken together, these data suggest that women with PCOS are at an increased risk for sleep disturbances, obesity and depression are associated with the increased risk. Pharmacotherapy is only recommended for the short term. This is particularly pertinent for women with PCOS whose insomnia and other sleep disturbances are unlikely to be short term and are related to underlying factors that need to be addressed directly. So, there is an urgent need to a safe method for PCOS women such as diaphragmatic breathing that need further more investigations which will be conducted in this study.

Waffen und Interventionen

Teilnehmergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandlung
Experimental: Study group A (Diaphragmatic breathing group)
27 participants with sleep disorders related to polycystic ovarian syndrome. They will receive diaphragmatic breathing exercises three times per week, for 6 minutes twice a day and will receive lifestyle modification advices for 8 weeks
Its course is 3 times per week, 6 minutes twice a day, for 8 weeks. When it's the first time to learn how to perform the diaphragmatic breathing technique, it's easier to follow the instructions lying down in supine position with a pillow under head. The patient will be asked to place one hand on her abdomen, just below her ribcage, and the other hand on the middle of her chest to become aware of her diaphragm's position and function during breathing. She will be told to breathe slowly and deeply through her nose and let her abdomen rise as much as possible. The length of the inhalation or exhalation should be 2-3 seconds
Avoid caffeine, smoking, alcohol, napping; thirsty or hungry Regular exercising, sleep timing, relax techniques; Reduce noise, Ensure bedroom clean, no TV, mobile in bed, snack near bed, warm bath pre sleep, wear sleep cloths, most relaxed position for sleep.

Maßnahmenbeschreibung
Zeitfenster
Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)
Zeitfenster: Pre-treatment at baseline of the study Post-treatment after intervention completed by 8 weeks.
a reliable, valid, standardized measure of sleep quality, discriminate "good" and "poor" sleepers and provide an easy index for patients to complete. It's classified into seven subcategories: "subjective sleep quality" (1 item), "sleep latency" (2 items), sleep duration (1 item), habitual sleep efficiency (3 items), sleep disturbances (7 items), use of sleeping medication (1 item), and daytime dysfunction (3 items). Five additional questions rated by the respondent's roommate or bed partner are included for clinical purposes and are not scored, all seven-item scores were added together to generate a total score ranging from 0 to 21.

Maßnahmenbeschreibung
Zeitfenster
Insomnia Severity Index (ISI)
Zeitfenster: Pre-treatment at baseline of the study Post-treatment after intervention completed by 8 weeks.
A brief measure with only seven items, easily administered, All seven items are scored from 0 to 4, where higher scores indicate increasing severity of sleep disturbances and associated daytime symptoms, all seven-item scores were added together to generate a total score ranging from 0 to 28. The ISI has been translated into multiple languages, validated in 12 countries and as a web-based measurement.
Pre-treatment at baseline of the study Post-treatment after intervention completed by 8 weeks.
Fatigue Assessment Scale (FAS)
Zeitfenster: Pre-treatment at baseline of the study Post-treatment after intervention completed by 8 weeks.
A 10-item self-reported scale evaluating symptoms of chronic fatigue, it measures both physical and mental symptoms. Each item of the FAS is answered using a five-point, Likert-type scale ranging from 1 ("never") to 5 ("always"). Items 4 and 10 are reverse-scored. Total scores can range from 10, indicating the lowest level of fatigue, to 50, denoting the highest. Since its introduction, the FAS was used in 26 different diseases or conditions, Its reliability and validity have proved to be good, the FAS is available in 20 languages and widely used
Pre-treatment at baseline of the study Post-treatment after intervention completed by 8 weeks.
