“…Sleep disorder was significantly higher in shift workers than in non-shift workers Nurses (Kolo, Ahmed, Hamisu, Ajiya, & Akhiwu, 2017). Abnormal sleep durations and quality were associated with significantly increased risk of total mortality (P.-L. , increased risk of coronary heart diseases (Chernyshev, McCarty, & Chesson, 2018), impaired social relationships, drowsy driving, occupational accidents, and heightened risk of cardiovascular events (Lemma, Gelaye, Berhane, Worku, & Williams, 2012).Problems associated with long-term sleep disorder include the following such as thought retardation, memory loss, slow response, irritability and even the increase in the possibility of depression and suicidal tendency (Mieda & Sakurai, 2013). Number of sleep-disorder patients has been increasing exponentially and exceeds more than 25% of the total population in most countries(Hayaishi, 2011).…”

Background: Sleep is a state of reduced consciousness and responsiveness from which an individual can be aroused by external stimulus. In humans, is also associated with reduced movement. It enables to restore energy in the body and initiate neural plasticity for learning and memory. Several studies in the world identified poor sleep quality among nurses and tried to explore associated factors. But there is no any study in Ethiopia on sleep quality and associated factors among nurses. Objectives: the main aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of sleep quality and associated factors among nurses in Jimma zone public hospitals. Methods: An institution based cross-sectional study was conducted on 550 nurses from June 1 to July 1, 2018. Data was collected using self-administered questionnaire; sleep quality was measured using PSQI which is standard validated tool. Collected data was checked for completeness, entered Epi data version 3.1 and exported to SPSS Version 20.0. Frequencies, means and percentages were used for the descriptive analysis of data. Bivariate analysis was done to select candidate variables. Variables having p< 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: A total of 528 nurses were included in the study with a response rate of 96%. The mean age was 31.73 7.36 years and 54.7% of nurses were females. Prevalence of poor sleep quality among nurses was 70.6%. According to the multiple logistic regression analysis current khat chewing, BMI in overweight individual, BMI in Obese individual, medium job related stress, high job related stress , and Shift working were significantly associated with poor sleep quality. Conclusion: The magnitude of poor quality of sleep among nurses working in hospitals, Jimma Zone was very high. Independent predictors of poor sleep quality as identified by this study were current khat chewing, overweight, obesity, job related stress, and shift work.

“…The quality of sleep is significant due to its close relation to the psychological and physical well-being of an individual (Galante et al, 2011). Sleep deficiency in the longterm may increase the risk of chronic illnesses such as obesity, diabetes, gastrointestinal disorders, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease, and cancer (Kolo et al, 2017;Chernyshev et al, 2018). Deficient sleep is also associated with significantly increased risk of mortality (Chien et al, 2013), increased risk of coronary heart diseases (Chernyshev et al, 2018), impaired social relationships, drowsy driving, occupational accidents, and heightened risk of cardiovascular events (Lemma et al, 2012).…”

Sleep is a naturally recurring state of mind and body which is a vital human physiological process. The sleep quality of nurses has become a prominent social focus since they are engaging in work based on a shift schedule. The paucity of data available on sleep quality and associated factors in Sri Lanka led this study to be conducted among nurses at Apeksha Hospital, Sri Lanka. A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 215 nurses at Apeksha Hospital, using a simple random - sampling method. A self-administered structured questionnaire was used as the data collection instrument and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to measure the sleep quality among nurses. The majority (86.5%) were females. Of the participants 65.58% had deficient sleep (PSQI≥5) and 34.42% had healthy sleep (PSQI<5). The mean score of the sleep quality was 7.16±3.30. Sleep quality was significantly (p<0.05) associated with chronic symptoms (p=0.003), children status (p=0.007), night shift frequency per month (p=0.029), number of patients per night shift (p=0.048), number of working hours per week (p=0.001), sleep duration (p=0.032), sleep disturbances at night (p=0.001), sleep medication use (p=0.020), and daytime dysfunction (p=0.001). In conclusion, sleep quality was poor among nurses working at Apeksha Hospital, Sri Lanka. The characteristics of night shifts, such as number of shift duties, number of hours, and number of patients in the night shift, were associated with the sleep quality of nurses. Therefore, scheduling working hours and night shifts according to the `national and international guidelines are vital.
