ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the current status of sleep and its influencing factors among diabetic patients in communities. Methods Using the method of cluster sampling,a total of 449 diabetic patients were selected from 20 communities in Beilun District,Ningbo City. A well -structured questionnaire and physical examination were applied to obtain information,and pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index( pSQI)was also used to compare the sleeping quality of diabetic patients with norm population. Results Out of 449 patients,177(39. 42%)had poor sleeping quality. Compared with norm (3. 88 ± 2. 52),sleeping quality of diabetic patients(5. 50 ± 3. 82)was poorer(p<0. 01). Multivariable logistic regression showed that BMI,family income and cardiovascular diseases( CVD)were the influencing factors of sleeping quality,the value of OR and 95% confidence interval(95%CI)were 0. 93(0. 87-0. 99),0. 35(0. 15-0. 80)and 1. 58(1. 01-2. 47) respectively. Besides,multivariable linear regression showed that family income and retirement were associated with sleeping quality(p<0. 05). Conclusion Sleep disorder remains a common problem among diabetic patients Low BMI,low family income,non-retiree and CVD contribute to poor status of sleep.
