Effect of Eye Mask Use on Sleep Quality and Delirium After CABG Surgery

The Effect of Eye Mask Use on Sleep Quality and Delirium Levels in Patients Following Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 17 Aug 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is an effective treatment for coronary artery disease; however, sleep disturbances and delirium are common during the postoperative period and may adversely affect recovery. Environmental factors, particularly light exposure, can disrupt the sleep-wake cycle and contribute to poor sleep quality. Eye masks offer a simple, safe, and non-pharmacological method of reducing light exposure and supporting sleep. This study aims to determine the effect of eye mask use on sleep quality and delirium levels in patients following CABG surgery.
