Fracture is a break or crack in bone tissue. One of the medical intervention for fracture patients is a surgery. The surgery on fractures can cause pain. After the surgery the patients will experience severe pain, which can interfere with rest and sleep patterns. Non- pharmacological therapy commonly used to overcome sleep pattern disorders is by soaking feet in warm water. Objectives: To describe the results of the practice of pediatric nursing station that focus on nursing care for pediatric fracture patients with the application of warm water foot soaks to overcome sleep pattern disorders, based on evidence-based learning. Method: The method used was a descriptive case study approach and journal review of patients with post-fracture surgery. Results: The results of the study showed that the three patients had undergone fracture surgery. The therapy for the nursing care in this case was carried out using warm water foot soak. Warm water foot soak was given for 15 minutes over three consecutive days to the three patients. The result revealed that their sleep pattern disorders decreased with satisfactory sleep quality results (score 9-10). Discussions: Foot soak therapy has physiological benefits for the body, namely: improving blood circulation, relaxing muscles, and improving sleep quality. Soaking feet in warm water can also stimulate increased secretion of serotonin hormone which is then converted into the melatonin hormone (a hormone that causes relaxation and drowsiness), causing a soporific effect (the effect of wanting to sleep) that help overcome sleep pattern disorders. Conclusion: Warm water foot soak therapy is one of therapies to help overcome sleep pattern disorders in patients with pediatric post-fracture surgery. All the three patients showed a decrease in the level of sleep pattern disorders after being given warm water foot soak therapy.
