Nowadays, increasing health level of HPs is an important issue regards the flourish statistics of these patients. Some studies have shown that massage therapy reduces back pain, obviate insomnia, make calmness and raise health in HPs due to the release of endorphins. This research was conducted to determine the effects of foot massage on nightly sleep quality of HPs. This experimental study was carried out on 80 HPs in Dialysis units of Shohada and Shahid Rahimi hospitals in Khorramabad, West of Iran during 2015. The instruments used included Pittsburg questionnaire and sleep log form. The sleep status of patients who have problems with their sleep was investigated according to the instruments before and after the intervention (foot massage). Foot massage was performed for 10 minutes during the dialysis, three times a week for 4 consecutive weeks. Changes in Pittsburg score showed that foot massage was effective in sleep quality of experimental groups and Freedman statistical exam showed that nightly sleep duration increased and generally with repeating the intervention, the sleep status of patients became better per week compared to the previous week (P<0.001). Concerning the results of present research, it can be concluded that foot massage has a desirable effect on sleep quality of HPs and can be executed and trained as a useful way to improve the sleep quality of patients in hemodialysis unit.

Chronic pain affects the whole person, not just physically, but also psychologically, spiritually and emotionally. Several studies have found a relationship between chronic pain and depression. Nurses play a key role in the treatment of these conditions. Which nursing interventions are referenced in the literature for the relief of pain and depression? were some of the research questions. Our purpose was to identify the nursing interventions referenced in the literature for the relief of chronic pain and depression. An electronic research of articles was performed in the following databases: CINHAL Complete, CINHAL Plus and MEDLINE (via EBSCOhost). Selection criteria: experimental or quasi-experimental studies published between 1st January, 2007 and 31st December, 2014; Participants older than 18 years with chronic pain and depression; Nursing interventions; Results in relieving pain and depression. 17 experimental and quasi-experimental studies were included in the final sample, all with a high level of evidence. Cognitive-behavioural therapy and education were the most frequently referenced interventions, with significant results in the relief of chronic pain and depression. Exercise and relaxation also showed an important contribution to the achievement of positive results in these conditions. Conclusions: There is evidence that the combination of intervention such as cognitive behavioural therapy, education and, eventually, exercise and relaxation, may have a positive contribution in reducing chronic pain and depression. The implementation of these interventions should be encompassed within a complex, multimodal treatment plan and it should be individualized, tailored to the specific characteristics of each individual.
