Abstract: Sleep is one of the primary needs of the basic requirement for human survival. Sleep disorders can cause some effects in humans. It is estimated that 60-80% of workers with shift work system have impaired sleep quality. This results in a decrease in work productivity and an increase in the occurence of accidents. This study aimed to obtain the sleep quality of nurses in Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado in 2013. This was a descriptive and observational study by using questionnaires. The study population was nurses in the Neurology Department and the Emergency Department (ED) with samples of 52 people. The results showed that the subjective sleep qualities as perceived by the nurses themselves were as follows: good enough (44.23%) and poor (36.54%). Respondents that had sleep disturbance less than once a week were 30.77%, and respondents that had sleep disturbance 1-2 times a week were 59.62%. Most nurses (69.24%) did not use sleeping pills. Respondents that experienced some disruption of their activities during the day over the past 1 month as many as 1-2 times a week were 55.77%. Conclusion: The quality of sleep of night shift nurses in Prof. Dr. R. D Kandou Hospital Manado belonged to poor quality.Keywords: night shift nurse, sleep qualityAbstrak: Tidur merupakan salah satu kebutuhan primer yang menjadi syarat dasar bagi kelangsungan hidup manusia.

Sleep is a basic human need. Sleep can help maintain the balance of both physiologically and psychologically to maintain health and life. However, the process is hampered sleep can cause people to experience a lack of sleep and consequently people will get tired and decreased concentration. This resulted in a decrease in work productivity and can cause accidents. The purpose of this study is to describe the quality of sleep in rotating workers at SK Lerik Hospital Kupang City in 2018. The research was conducted at the Hospital of SK Lerik starting in May-June 2018. This study is a quantitative study with a descriptive survey method. Sleep quality was measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). The total sample in this study amounted to 126 people. The results showed that 114 (90,48%) of respondents have poor sleep quality, 77 (61,11%) of respondents considered that the quality of sleep is good, 45 (35,71%) of respondents have very less sleep latency, 53 (42,06%) of respondents slept 5-6 hours per day, 47 (37,30%) had sleep inefficient, 90 (71,43%) of respondents experiencing mild sleep disturbances, 118 (93,65%) of respondents never use sleeping pills, and 61 (48,41%) of respondents considered that the dysfunction experienced sleep during the day only a minor problem, In order to have a good quality sleep, should reduce the habit of using electronic devices (Smartphone and TV) before sleep and workers take turns at night should make up for lack of sleep at night with a nap sufficient.

Abstract Background: Sleep disturbance is a common complaint in people living with HIV/AIDS. Despite the influence of sleep disturbance on treatment adherence, quality of life, work productivity, risk of chronic illness, it remains under-recognized and under-studied in Ethiopia. Therefore it is necessary to produce scientific evidence to fill the knowledge gap and areas of management. The current study aimed to assess sleep quality and its associated factors among people living with HIV/AIDS. Methods: An institution-based cross-sectional study was utilized among 408 participants who were selected by a systematic random sampling technique at Zewditu memorial hospital from April to May 2018. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index questionnaire was used to measure sleep quality. Ethical clearance was obtained from the joint ethics committee of the University of Gondar and Amanuel Mental Specialized Hospital. Oral informed consent was obtained from each participant. Binary and multivariable logistic regression models were fitted. Odds ratios (OR) with the corresponding 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was computed. Results: The magnitude of poor sleep quality was 55.6%. Being female [AOR=3.40, 95% CI: (1.80, 6.41)], depression [AOR =3.52, 95% CI: (1.95, 6.32)], CD4count ≤ 200 cells/mm3 [AOR=3.18,95%CI: (1.65,6.13)], duration of HIV/AIDS diagnosis [AOR=3.43,95% CI: (1.61,7.29)], current use of tobacco [AOR=5.69, 95% CI: (2.04,15.9)] and chat or caffeinated drinks [AOR=2.65, 95% CI: (1.06,6.64)] and poor sleep hygiene [AOR=3.55, 95% CI: (1.85, 6.78)] were significantly associated with poor sleep quality.Conclusions: More than half of the study participants were found to have poor sleep quality. A range factors influence quality of sleep of people with HIV/AIDS. Routine screening of sleep condition among people living with HIV/AIDS and early intervention based on the findings is suggested.

Sleep is an important factor in human life cycle. Many of the people are struggling from sleep disorders that may range from sleep deprivation to insomnia. Other major factor with respect to sleep is quality of sleep. It tends to happen with many of the people now a days that they get sleep for 6 to 8 hours but still they feel fatigue or sleepy throughout the day or even they are not satisfied with their sleep. Many people move towards the clinical/medical way to get good deep sleep like sleeping pills or tablets having alprazolam [1]. This may have seductive side effects throughout the day. Here in this paper we focus to improve sleep quality by maintain efficient hormonal profile of tryptophan i.e. melatonin through food based therapy to improve quality of sleep [2-4].

Objective: This was a descriptive study with the objective to determine the sleep disturbances and the quality of sleep among patients with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs).Methods: Quantitative approach with non-experimental descriptive design was used. A semi-structured sleep disturbance questionnaire was used to determine the sleep disturbances, and a standardized Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index tool was used to assess the sleep quality among 100 subjects in Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences, Kochi.Results: The study results showed that majority of the subjects (51%) were of the age group between 56 and 65 years, and 71% were male with CVD. Sleep disturbances were present in 80% of the subjects with CVD, among which 56% subjects had mild disturbances, 20% subjects with moderate sleep disturbances, and 4% subjects with severe sleep disturbances. The result also indicated that 48% of subjects had poor sleep quality. Findings also showed a highly statistically significant association between cardiomyopathy and sleep disturbances (p<0.001). Total cholesterol and low-density cholesterol levels were significantly associated with sleep disturbances (p<0.05). There is a highly significant association between sleep disturbances and quality of sleep (p<0.001), indicating that sleep disturbances can be one factor in decreasing the quality of sleep in patients with CVD.Conclusion: The results of the study indicated that sleep disturbances were prevalent in patients with CVD and often hazardous to heart health. As health practitioner and other health-care providers have not focused major attention on the importance of sleep to health, the need for providing information to them and patients regarding the importance of improving the quality of sleep and identifying the sleep disturbances will call for action to bring sleep to the forefront of public health.

Background Sleep disturbance and ventilator inefficiency are considered two of the most critical complications for general human wellbeing, particularly in elderly heart failure (HF) patients. Studies examining the effect of low-intensity aerobic exercise in the treatment of sleep disturbance and ventilatory inefficiency in this population of patients are limited.Objective The purpose of the current pilot study was to check the effect of low-intensity aerobic exercise on the quality of sleep and ventilatory efficiency in elderly HF patients.Materials and methods Design: pilot study. Setting: outpatient physical therapy clinic within Cairo University regional hospital. Participants: eight elderly HF patients (6 men, 2 women) with a mean age of 69.4±4.2 years. Intervention: participants were recruited for a low-intensity exercise program (40 to 50% of maximum heart rate for 30-40 minutes), five sessions weekly for four weeks. Exercise intensity was monitored during the sessions using heart rate. Outcome Measure: sleep quality was assessed pre- and post- four weeks of exercise program usingthe Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) and ventilatory efficiency was assessed using cardiopulmonary exercise test.Results HF patients (II–III NYHA), mean age 69.4±4.2 years, body mass index 23.7±2.7 kg/m2, ejection fraction 32.7±4.5 %, VO2peak 16.27±4.2 ml/kg/min, VE/VCO2 30.81±12.7. The mean of global PSQI score ranged between 8.2 to 11.4 with a mean of 9.7±3.4 which indicates that the participants experienced sleep disturbance. The post-exercise assessment showed that patients have reported a significant improvement of all PSQI domains compared with baseline assessment (p<0.05). VO2peak significantly increased from 16.27±4.2 pre-intervention to 20.03±2.6 ml/kg/min post-intervention (p=0.049) whereas VE/VCO2 slightly decreased with a non-significant difference at the end of the study program (p=0.594) indicating animprovement of ventilator efficiencyand overall cardiorespiratory fitness.Conclusion Short-term application of low-intensity aerobic exercise (4 weeks) may improve the quality of sleep and ventilator efficiency in elderly HF patients. The study findings encourage elderly HF patients with sleep disturbance to adhere to the exercise training program. Also, cardiac rehabilitation programs with low intensity of aerobic exercise should be proposed to these patients by their health care provider.

ObjectivesTo assess the quality of sleep of employees in the German offshore wind industry and to explore factors associated with poor sleep quality.DesignWeb-based cross-sectional survey.SettingOffshore companies operating in wind farms within the German exclusive economic zone.ParticipantsWorkers with regular offshore commitments and at least 28 days spent offshore in the past year (n=268).Outcome measuresSleep quality in the past 4 weeks, troubles falling asleep or sleeping through in the past 4 weeks, differences in sleep quality between offshore deployments and onshore leaves.ResultsHaving problems with sleep onset was reported by 9.5% of the respondents. 16.5% reported troubles with maintaining sleep three or more times per week. The overall quality of sleep was rated as very bad by only 1.7% of the participants. 47.9% of the workers reported their quality of sleep to be worse during offshore commitments than when being onshore. Higher levels of exposition to noise, vibrations and poor air quality were associated with sleeping troubles and poorer sleep quality. Sharing the sleep cabin with colleagues was associated with troubles sleeping through. No association was found for working in rotating shifts and for regularity of the offshore commitments.ConclusionsWorkers in our study showed frequent sleep problems and poorer sleep quality offshore than onshore. Our results indicate that higher degrees of exposure to noise, vibrations and artificial ventilation are associated with poor sleep quality rather than organisational factors such as shift-work and type of working schedule. In view of the high demands of the offshore workplace and the workers’ particular recovery needs, addressing sleep disorders should be part of any health and safety management strategy for this workplace.

Sleep is increasingly being an integral part of a training routine rather than a stagnant state of inactivity, and as a controllable factor that can modify performance for elite athletes. Athletes report high rates of sleep disturbance especially during intense workloads which directly affects athletic performance and may predispose individuals to injury. This study aimed to evaluate the quality of sleep and the various risk factors associated with it among Pakistani athletes. From February to April 2020, a cross-sectional, multi-center study was conducted involving athletes aged 18 and up, of either gender, from various cities in Pakistan... A validated Urdu version of the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) instrument was used to identify sleep quality. Out of 205 participants, n=84 athletes were bad sleepers based on PSQI score. Of whom, the majority were males n=75 (89.3%), and having age group of 18-30 years n=71 (84.5%). Binary logistic regression demonstrated no statistically significant association between any of the factor and PSQI score. The study found a disturbing quality of sleep in a considerable number of athletes. Therefore, interventions should be done to improve sleep quality so that the performance of the athletes can be improved.

Abstract Purpose Sudarshan Kriya Yoga (SKY) is an advanced yogic breathing technique with a demonstrated impact on human physical and mental health. Even so, very few studies have observed its effect on sleep. This is the first study evaluating the impact of SKY as an intervention on sleep quality among Indian population. This study assessed both the immediate and prolonged effect of SKY on sleep quality. The secondary objective of the study was to evaluate the association between frequency of SKY practice and sleep quality. Methods This was a single arm open-trial study, which included 473 participants. All participants underwent a 3-day SKY workshop offered by the Art of Living, and were assessed for sleep quality using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) questionnaire, administered to the participants before the program (pre-intervention), immediately after the program (post-intervention), and at Day 40 (D40) after the program. Responses were grouped according to age, gender, and frequency of practice. The impact of the frequency of SKY practice on sleep quality was also investigated. Results The quality of sleep improved with SKY practice across the study population. Women recorded inferior quality of sleep at the beginning of the study, but experienced a greater improvement in sleep quality after the SKY practice, as compared to men. The younger population seemed to benefit over the long-term, while the older population had an immediate improvement in sleep quality, however, they were not able to sustain it. The effect size varied with the frequency of practice. Sleep quality improved markedly among those who practiced SKY daily, indicating an association between the frequency of SKY practice and its efficiency in improving sleep quality. Conclusion The results demonstrate the efficacy of SKY in improving sleep quality across populations, irrespective of gender or age. This is indicative of the beneficial role of SKY in treating psychological disorders such as insomnia. The effect varies with the frequency of practice, with more frequent practice yielding better quality of sleep.

e23100 Background: Sleep disturbances are highly prevalent in cancer patients and may be attributable to factors including pain, treatment side effects and psychological factors. However, the relationship between sleep and cancer is bidirectional. There is substantial evidence that sleep disturbance is associated with many aspects of cancer treatment, morbidity, mortality and quality of life. This study evaluated sleep quality in adult Filipinos with cancer and determined the association of demographic characteristics and clinical features to sleep quality. Methods: This was a cross-sectional surveillance study conducted among adult Filipinos with cancer seen at the Ambulatory Care Unit of a tertiary hospital. Questionnaires were answered to assess subjective sleep quality, pain score and quality of life. Frequency and percentages were determined. Determination of factors affecting sleep quality was analyzed using univariate and multivariate statistics. Results: Of the 406 cancer patients studied, 80% were women and the mean age was 53 years old. Majority (62%) had breast cancer. Seventy-nine percent (79%) of the patients had a PSQI score of 5 or greater, indicating poor sleep quality. Sleep among participants was characterized by prolonged time to fall asleep and shortened sleep duration. Majority reported some degree of daytime dysfunction due to poor sleep. Age, gender and marital status did not appear to affect the quality of sleep. Among disease-related factors, presence of more advanced disease, increasing pain severity and treatment with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy were demonstrated to lead to poorer sleep quality. Surprisingly, even patients who were not receiving any active therapies (on-going surveillance) complained of sleep disturbance. Upon further investigation, poor sleep quality was shown to predict a worse quality of life among the study participants. Conclusions: Overall, the quality of sleep among adult Filipinos with cancer is significantly impaired. In particular, presence of more advanced disease, treatment with chemotherapy and radiotherapy and moderate to severe pain significantly increase the risk of having poor sleep. In turn, disturbed sleep predicted a poorer quality of life. These findings support the need to include assessment of sleep quality for a more holistic approach to cancer care.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the association between sleep quality and quality of life of nursing professionals according to their work schedules.METHODS A prospective, cross-sectional, observational study was conducted between January and December 2010, with 264 nursing professionals, drawn from 989 subjects at Botucatu General Hospital and stratified by professional category. The Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index and the WHOQOL-bref were administered to evaluate sleep quality and quality of life, respectively. Self-reported demographic data were collected with a standard form. Continuous variables were reported as means and standard deviations, and categorical variables were expressed as proportions. Associations were evaluated using Spearman’s correlation coefficient. The association of night-shift work and gender with sleep disturbance was evaluated by logistic regression analysis using a model adjusted for age and considering sleep disturbance the dependent variable. The level of significance was p < 0.05.RESULTS Night-shift work was associated with severe worsening of at least one component of sleep quality in the model adjusted for age (OR = 1.91; 95%CI 1.04;3.50; p = 0.036). Female gender was associated with sleep disturbance (OR = 3.40; 95%CI 1.37;8.40; p = 0.008). Quality of life and quality of sleep were closely correlated (R = -0.56; p < 0.001).CONCLUSIONS Characteristics of the nursing profession affect sleep quality and quality of life, and these two variables are associated.
