Summary
This study tested whether wearing a light-blocking eye mask at night could improve sleep quality and melatonin levels in 60 intensive care unit patients. Half wore the mask from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m., while the other half received standard care. Sleep was measured using questionnaires and urine tests for melatonin. The goal was to see if a simple, non-invasive tool could help patients rest better in a bright, noisy ICU.
