多くの脳性麻痺・発達障害児は睡眠障害を有する。睡眠障害は児の運動・認知・行動・てんかん,全てに悪影響
を及ぼし,養育者の睡眠や抑うつにも関連する。2019 年5 月~ 2020 年1 月に17 名(1 ~ 14 歳)の児に対して,ラ
ベンダー・クラリセージ・オレンジを配合した精油の使用前7 日間と使用中7 日間において,アクチグラフで入眠
潜時・睡眠効率・中途覚醒などを評価した。また養育者には質問票での評価を依頼した。結果として,芳香浴なし/
ありで,睡眠効率は84.1/87.5%(p=0.001),5 分以上の中途覚醒は4.4/3.6 回(p=0.03)と有意に改善あり。質問
票で児の睡眠に対する評価は2.2/3.3 点(p<0.0001),養育者自身の睡眠は2.8/3.2 点(p=0.007)と睡眠の質も改善
あり。本研究によって,芳香浴が脳性麻痺・発達障害児のみならず養育者の睡眠も改善させる可能性が示唆された。 |

Background:Children with cerebral palsy (CP) or developmental disorders (DD) have a higher prevalence of sleep
problems. Their symptoms are sometimes severe and may interfere with physical, cognitive, and social development. The
symptoms of these children may also be associated with poor sleep quality of their guardians. We investigated effects of
aromatherapy in children with CP or DD and sleep problems refractory to medical treatments, and the influence on quality
of sleep of their parents.
Patients and Methods:Between May 2019 and January 2020, 17 children( 1-14 years old) with CP and/or DD were enrolled.
Actigraphy was used to evaluate their sleep for two weeks. The subjects were asked to use aroma patch( blend
of lavender, clary sage, and orange) in the latter week. The parents were provided questionnaires concerning the sleep
quality of the child and that of themselves. The following parameters were analyzed:sleep latency( time to sleep onset
after lying), sleep efficiency( ratio of total sleep time to time in bed) and the number of nocturnal awakenings >5 min.
Results:Sleep efficiency (84.1 vs 87.5%, p=0.001) and the number of nocturnal awakenings (4.4 vs 3.6, p=0.03) were
significantly improved during aromatherapy. The questionnaire results revealed overall satisfaction scores with both
their child’s sleep( 2.2 vs 3.3, p<0.0001) and those of the sleep of the parents themselves( 2.8 vs 3.2, p=0.007) were significantly
improved after using aromatherapy.
Conclusion:This study showed that the aromatherapy may be useful for improving sleep quality of children with CP or
DD and quality of sleep of their parents. |
