Abstract (1726 Views)
Aims: Chronic musculoskeletal disorders often negatively impact quality of life, with pain and sleep disturbances being major contributors. Nurses play a pivotal role in implementing pain management strategies, which may indirectly influence quality of life through sleep quality. This study aimed to investigate the effect of pain management strategies employed by nurses on the quality of life in adults with chronic musculoskeletal disorders, with sleep quality as an intermediary parameter.
Instrument & Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with 280 adults attending the outpatient rehabilitation clinic of a university hospital in Najaf City. Participants were selected based on eligibility criteria and surveyed using the Pain Management Inventory-Nurse Version, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, the WHOQOL-BREF, and a sociodemographic questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficient, and mediation analysis (PROCESS macro, Model 4).
Findings: Pain management strategies were positively associated with quality of life (r=0.53, p<0.01) and negatively associated with poor sleep quality (r=-0.46, p<0.01). Sleep quality was also negatively related to quality of life (r=-0.58, p<0.01). Mediation analysis confirmed that sleep quality partially mediated the relationship between pain management and quality of life (indirect effect β=0.23, 95% CI: 0.14-0.34).
Conclusion: Effective nurse-led pain management improves the quality of life in patients with chronic musculoskeletal disorders, in part due to enhanced sleep quality.
