Objective To analyze the nursing effect of head copper needle scraping on improving the sleep quality of insomnia patients. Methods Insomnia patients admitted to the hospital during a two-year period (sample inclusion time: September 2022 to September 2024; sample inclusion number: 86 cases) were selected as the study subjects. The included patients were randomly ranked from 1 to 86 according to Excel, with odd numbered patients receiving routine care (control group, n=43) and even numbered patients receiving routine care+head copper needle scraping intervention (study group, n=43). Compare the sleep quality, insomnia symptoms, psychological state, and quality of life between the two groups. Results In terms of sleep quality score and insomnia symptom score, the study group was lower than the control group (P<0.05). In terms of anxiety score and quality of life score, the study group outperformed the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion In the nursing process of insomnia patients, the implementation of head copper needle scraping intervention has a good effect, which helps to improve sleep quality and insomnia symptoms, enhance quality of life, and can be further promoted and applied in clinical practice.
