摘要
背景在当今的现代社会,轮班工作已成为社会和工业工作的重要组成部分;长时间清醒是一种普遍现象,由于这种现象,个人的睡眠模式受到干扰,许多睡眠障碍也随之产生。采用自填式问卷,即匹兹堡睡眠质量指数(PSQI)和雅典失眠量表(AIS)来评估睡眠质量和失眠情况。白班保安员填写了 50 份问卷,夜班保安员填写了 50 份问卷。结果显示,夜班和白班保安员在睡眠质量和失眠这两个变量上存在显著差异(95% CI; p <0.05)。在夜班工人中,74%的人报告了睡眠质量问题,48%的人经历过失眠。结论这项研究得出结论,与日班工作的保安员相比,夜班工作的保安员睡眠质量较差,失眠发生率较高。这些差异非常明显,凸显了夜班工作对睡眠健康的潜在不利影响,因此有必要采取干预措施,改善夜班工人的睡眠质量并控制失眠症。
Prevalence and characterization of sleep quality and insomnia in security guards working on the day and night shift in Delhi-NCR
Background
In today’s modern world, shift working has become an important part of society and industrial work; prolonged wakefulness is a widespread phenomenon due to which the sleep patterns of individuals are getting disturbed, and many sleep disorders are arising.
Purpose
This study compared the sleep quality and insomnia of the security guards working the day and night shifts.
Methods
This observational study comprised 100 security guards from Delhi and the NCR region. Self-administered questionnaires, i.e., the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) and the Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS), were used to assess sleep quality and insomnia. Fifty questionnaires were filled out by the day shift security guards, and the night shift security guards filled out 50. The data underwent analysis, and a comparison was conducted between security workers on night and day shifts using a Mann–Whitney U test, with a significance level set at p < 0.05.
Results
The result revealed a significant difference (95% CI; p < 0.05) for the variables, sleep quality and insomnia when compared between night and day shift working security guards. Among night shift workers, 74% reported issues with sleep quality and 48% experienced insomnia. In comparison, among day shift workers, 58% reported concerns about sleep quality, while 32% reported experiencing insomnia.
Conclusion
The study concluded that night-shift working security guards had poorer sleep quality and a higher prevalence of insomnia compared to their day-shift counterparts. These differences are highly significant, highlighting the potential adverse effects of night shift work on sleep health, urging the need for interventions to improve sleep quality and manage insomnia among night shift workers.
期刊介绍:
The journal Sleep and Breathing aims to reflect the state of the art in the international science and practice of sleep medicine. The journal is based on the recognition that management of sleep disorders requires a multi-disciplinary approach and diverse perspectives. The initial focus of Sleep and Breathing is on timely and original studies that collect, intervene, or otherwise inform all clinicians and scientists in medicine, dentistry and oral surgery, otolaryngology, and epidemiology on the management of the upper airway during sleep.
Furthermore, Sleep and Breathing endeavors to bring readers cutting edge information about all evolving aspects of common sleep disorders or disruptions, such as insomnia and shift work. The journal includes not only patient studies, but also studies that emphasize the principles of physiology and pathophysiology or illustrate potentially novel approaches to diagnosis and treatment. In addition, the journal features articles that describe patient-oriented and cost-benefit health outcomes research. Thus, with peer review by an international Editorial Board and prompt English-language publication, Sleep and Breathing provides rapid dissemination of clinical and clinically related scientific information. But it also does more: it is dedicated to making the most important developments in sleep disordered breathing easily accessible to clinicians who are treating sleep apnea by presenting well-chosen, well-written, and highly organized information that is useful for patient care.
