Progressive muscle relaxation implementation can help to promote quality of sleep and decrease anxiety. Aim of the study was to determine the effect of mothers’ implementing progressive muscle relaxation technique on anxiety and sleep quality among children with COVID-19. Subjects and method: Design: A quasi-experimental research design was utilized in this study. Setting: The study was conducted at pediatric chest diseases outpatient clinic at Sohag University Hospital, El-zehor, El-Mabra, and Alhamyate Hospitals in Port Said City, and a Home visit was done for follow-up. Subjects: A convenient sample of 50 children diagnosed with COVID-19 and their mothers were randomly divided into two groups, from a total population of 376 children and their mothers within six-months. Three tools were used: Tool (I): A structured interview schedule Tool (II) Spielberger State Anxiety Scale for Children, Tool (III) Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index Scale. Results: the children age was between 5- < 10 years. There were significant differences and improvements related anxiety level and quality of sleep mean scores between the two groups post implementation of the relaxation technique. Conclusion: Progressive muscle relaxation technique implementation was an effective and safe non-medical intervention used for improving anxiety level and quality of sleep among children diagnosed with COVID-19. Recommendations: Providing Training program for mothers’ and their children regards progressive muscle relaxation technique to reduce anxiety and improve sleep quality among children with COVID-19. | ||||
