The Effect of Gamified Sleep Hygiene Education on Sleep Quality and Fatigue Levels in Chemotherapy Patients

2. september 2026 oppdatert av: Esra Turker, Lokman Hekim University

Sleep disturbances and fatigue are common problems among patients receiving chemotherapy and may negatively affect their quality of life. This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of gamified sleep hygiene education on sleep quality and cancer-related fatigue in patients receiving chemotherapy.

A total of 56 patients will be randomly assigned to two groups, with 28 participants in each group. The intervention group will receive gamified sleep hygiene education through the web-based "Sleep Hunter" program, while the active comparator group will receive standard sleep hygiene education through verbal instruction and educational brochures. The intervention will be delivered in two sessions over a two-week period.

Sleep quality will be assessed using the Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire, and cancer-related fatigue will be assessed using the Hirai Cancer Fatigue Scale. Outcomes will be assessed at baseline and after completion of the two-week intervention.

Våpen og intervensjoner

Deltakergruppe / Arm
Intervensjon / Behandling
Aktiv komparator: Standard Sleep Hygiene Education Group
Participants in the control group will receive standard sleep hygiene education through verbal instruction and educational brochures in two sessions. Post-intervention assessments will be performed following completion of the education.
Standard sleep hygiene education will be provided through verbal instruction and educational brochures in two sessions.
Eksperimentell: Gamified Sleep Hygiene Education Group
Participants in the intervention group will receive gamified sleep hygiene education using the web-based "Sleep Hunter" educational material. The intervention will be delivered over a two-week period. The gamified education includes sleep hygiene content presented through an online escape-room format incorporating educational videos, audio narrations, visuals, animations, matching activities, fill-in-the-blank activities, and true/false questions
Gamified sleep hygiene education will be delivered using the web-based "Sleep Hunter" educational material developed in an online escape-room format. The educational content includes sleep hygiene, stimulus control, caffeine use, screen light exposure, regulation of the sleep environment, relaxation exercises, breathing techniques, and establishment of a sleep routine. The program incorporates gamification elements including badges, levels, rewards, educational videos, audio narrations, visuals, animations, matching activities, fill-in-the-blank activities, and true/false questions. The intervention will be delivered using smartphones or tablets in two sessions over a two-week period. Each session will last no longer than 10 minutes, with a total education duration of approximately 20 minutes.

Tiltaksbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Change in Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire Total Score
Tidsramme: Baseline and immediately after completion of the 2-week intervention
Sleep quality will be measured using the Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire (RCSQ). The RCSQ yields a total score ranging from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better perceived sleep quality. The outcome will be the change in the RCSQ total score from baseline to the end of the 2-week intervention.
