Abstract

Older adults have sleep disorders that lead to decreased quality of life and risk of chronic disease complications. Older adults need to improve their sleep quality to gain a better quality of life. They aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Crocus-sativus-Linnaeus and Clitoria-Ternatea in enhancing the quality of life and sleep of older adults. The quasi-experiment with a control group design was used. The 40 elder adults with hypertension, without dementia, severe cardiovascular disease, and hypersensitivity to compounds; were recruited. The tools were PSQI and WHO-QL. Analysis used t-test and Wilcoxon test. Crocus-sativus-Linnaeus and Clitoria-Ternatea were insignificant in improving sleep quality p = 0.264 (p<0.05) and physical domain in quality-of-life p = 0.075. It significantly improved the quality of life in the psychological, social relationships, and the environment, with p = 0.007, p = 0.003, and p = 0.041. For Future research increasing the number of samples is needed.
