This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether simple, non-medication tools—specifically eye masks and earplugs—can help patients sleep better before and after heart surgery. Sleep is crucial for healing, but hospitals are noisy and bright, making it hard to rest. Researchers believe that better sleep might reduce serious complications like confusion, irregular heartbeats, and other problems that sometimes happen after surgery.
Patients waiting for and recovering from heart surgery often don't sleep well because of the hospital environment, stress, and noise. Poor sleep can lead to dangerous complications like delirium, confusion, and heart rhythm problems. This study exists to see whether protecting sleep with simple, free tools might prevent these serious complications and help patients heal better.

If you are randomly assigned to the treatment group, you will receive eye masks and earplugs to use during sleep while in the hospital before and after your surgery. The control group will receive routine hospital care without these tools. Researchers will track your sleep quality and watch for any complications like confusion, irregular heartbeats, or delirium during your hospital stay. The study involves about 100 total participants across both groups.
