Research It is planned to be held between November 2021 and December 2022.Therapeutic touch will be applied to the patients selected in the experimental and control groups among the patients who meet the research criteria in the intensive care units. After this application, the sleep pattern changes in the patients will be evaluated.Therapeutic touch will be applied to the patients selected in the experimental and control groups among the patients who meet the research criteria in the intensive care units. After this application, sleep pattern changes in patients will be evaluated. In the analysis of the research, dependent groups t test andindependent groups t test, Mann Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis tests will be used in non-parametric cases

研究组 & 干预措施
The effect of therapeutic touch on sleep patterns of elderly patients
The important effects of the therapeutic approach made by the researcher to the elderly patients hospitalized in the intensive care unit will be evaluated.
干预措施: therapeutic touch (Other)
Determining the sleep pattern of the Control Group
It will be evaluated whether there is a change in sleep patterns without intervention in the control group.
结局指标
主要结局
The effect of therapeutic touch applied to the experimental group on sleep
时间窗: at the end of 1 week
The experimental group will be given therapeutic touch applications before. The sleep patterns of the patients who are applied therapeutic touch for 1 week will be followed. Sleep patterns will be followed by researchers and nurses by recording sleep hours and filling out sleep pattern questionnaire questions.
Visual Analogue Scale
时间窗: pretest (Measurements taken during the initial consultation)
The Visual Analogue Scale - Anxiety Subtest (VAS-Anxiety) was used to measure anxiety levels. Scores ranged from 0 to 100, where 0 represents no anxiety and 100 represents the highest possible anxiety. Higher scores indicate a worse outcome. Patients marked their anxiety level on the scale, and this score was recorded as the outcome measure.
Comparison of Sleep Duration and Sleep Onset Difficulties by Group at Measurement Times (Sleep Duration)
时间窗: pretest (Measurements taken during the initial consultation)
In this measurement, the sleep duration was recorded as subjective data by the researcher. (Calculated based on the intended bedtime and wake-up time)
次要结局
- Determining the sleep pattern of the Control Group(At the and of 1 week)
- Visual Analogue Scale(posttest (three weeks after the pre-test))
- Comparison of Sleep Duration and Sleep Onset Difficulties by Group at Measurement Times (Sleep Duration)(posttest (three weeks after the pre-test))
