The major reasons for sleep disturbance were night toilet visits, 22.3% (37/166) of patients went to night toilet more than 3 times per week. Logistic regression analysis showed that the type of colostomy ( OR=1.969, P=0.012) and discharge time ( OR=2.092, P=0.000) were influencing factors of sleep quality.
