RESUMO | A privação de sono é uma situação comum entre os estudantes e pode causar problemas de saúde e de aprendizagem. Dessa forma, o objetivo deste estudo foi analisar o padrão de sono de estudantes universitários do curso de fisioterapia e os fatores associados à qualidade de sono. Participaram do estudo 199 alunos do curso de Fisioterapia. Para avaliação da qualidade do sono, foi utilizado o Índice de Qualidade do Sono de Pittsburgh. Variáveis ambientais, biológicas e sociais foram obtidas e sua relação com qualidade de sono foi analisada. Pode-se observar que 51,75% dos estudantes apresentaram qualidade do sono ruim, a qual estava associada com a menor duração do sono (p<0,01) e hora de acordar mais cedo em dias de semana (p<0,01), dois turnos de trabalho (p<0,01) e maior sonolência diurna (p<0,01). Concluiu-se que 51,75% dos estudantes universitários avaliados apresentaram qualidade de sono ruim e essa pode ter causa multifatorial.Descritores | privação do sono; estudantes; fatores de risco.ABSTRACT | Sleep deprivation is a common situation among students and can cause health problems and learning difficulties. On this way, the aim of the study was to analyze the sleep pattern of physical therapy university students, as well as the associated factors with quality of sleep. A total of 199 physical therapy students participate of the study. To asses sleep quality, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was used. Environmental, biological and social variables were investigated and their relations to sleep quality were analyzed. It was shown that 51.75% of the students showed poor sleep quality, which has been associated with shorter sleep duration (p<0.01) and earlier wake-up time in weekdays (p<0.01), double work shift (p<0.01) and increased daytime sleepiness (p<0.01). It was concluded that the quality of sleep was poor in 51.75% of the evaluated students and this may have multifactorial cause.
