Methods: By control design of retrospective nonconcurrent cohort study, 100 insomnia patients with liver cirrhosis admitted and treated in our clinic between October 2011 and September 2012, were recruited in the control group and given routine nursing of internal medicine. A total of 105 insomnia patients with liver cirrhosis, admitted and treated between October 2012 and September 2013, were recruited in the intervention group and given foot bath and massage on the basis of routine nursing of internal medicine. After continuous intervention for 14 d, the clinical effects and the nursing satisfaction were evaluated. Results: There were statistically significant differences in clinical effects and sleeping quality between the two groups(P<0.05, P<0.01). The therapeutic effect was better in the intervention group than in the control group, and the nursing satisfaction was remarkably higher in the intervention group than in the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion: Foot bath and massage can obviously reduce insomnia in the patients with liver cirrhosis, improve the sleeping quality, and effectively elevate the nursing satisfaction of the patients, and are worthy of clinical popularization and application.展开更多
