abstract = {Disturbed sleep among people living with dementia in
nursing homes is widespread and is associated with diseases
and all-cause mortality. This study examined the sleep of
people living with dementia from their perspectives in
nursing homes and that of the nurses who care for people
living with dementia.A qualitative cross-sectional study was
conducted. A total of 15 people living with dementia and 15
nurses in 11 German nursing homes were enrolled in this
study. Data was collected between February and August 2021
through semistructured interviews, which were audio recorded
and transcribed. Thematic analyses were performed by three
independent researchers. Thematic mind maps and
controversial findings were discussed with the Research
Working Group of People with Dementia of the German
Alzheimer Association.Thematic analysis identified five
overarching themes from the nursing home participants
regarding sleep patterns: (1) characteristics of good sleep,
(2) characteristics of bad sleep, (3) personal influences of
people living with dementia on sleep, (4) environmental
factors on sleep, and (5) sleep strategies of people living
with dementia. Analysis also identified five overarching
themes from the nurses participants: (1) characteristics of
good sleep, (2) characteristics of bad sleep, (3) personal
influences on sleep, (4) environmental factors on sleep, and
(5) interventions for sleep promotion.The thematic analyses
demonstrated that the perspectives of people living with
dementia and nurses indicate the need to give more
consideration to psychosocial factors and individual aspects
of sleep in clinical practice. The results could also be
helpful for the development of targeted assessment
instruments and complex non-pharmacological interventions to
promote sleep.},
