Practice Question
A nurse is assisting with evaluating teaching with a client who reports insomnia. Which of the following client statements indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Answer Choices:
Correct Answer:
“I will stop exercising at least 2 hr before bedtime.”
Rationale:
🛌Late-evening vigorous exercise elevates core temperature, catecholamines, and arousal, which can delay sleep onset and fragment sleep.
🛌Finishing exercise ≥2 hours before bed allows autonomic down-regulation and temperature decline, conditions that favor sleep initiation.
🛌This timing complements other sleep-hygiene strategies (dark, quiet room; consistent routine; avoiding stimulants).
🛌Going to bed only when sleepy prevents conditioned wakefulness in the bedroom and supports stimulus control.
🛌Together, these habits reduce sleep latency, improve sleep efficiency, and lessen insomnia complaints.
