- 소개/요약Introduction Our goal is to evaluate the effects of mindfulness meditation training on insomnia and quality of life of postmenopausal women Methods Thirty postmenopausal women, aged 50–65, not using hormone therapy, and with an apnea-hypopnea index lower than 15 and a diagnosis of insomnia, were randomly assigned to two groups: mindfulness intervention and a control group. They were analyzed before and after 8 weeks of the protocol through questionnaires assessing sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index - PSQI), insomnia (Insomnia Severity Index ISI), quality of life in menopause (Menopause- Specific Quality of Life - MENQOL), menopausal symptoms (Kupperman Menopausal Index - KMI), level of attention (Mindfulness Awareness Attention Scale - MAAS) as well as assessment through ambulatory polysomnography. This is a pilot study and is limited by its small sample size Results Significant differences were found in the group that received mindfulness training compared to the control group: improvements in sleep quality, severity of insomnia, quality of life, attention levels and a reduction in menopausal and vasomotor symptoms. We found no differences between the two groups in the evaluation of the polysomnography results. Conclusion Eight weeks mindfulness meditation training improved the quality of sleep, overall quality of life, level of attention and reduced vasomotor symptoms in postmenopausal women with insomnia.
