Sleep disorder in nurses may not only adversely affect on their own health, but also endanger their patients` health. The purpose of this study was to evaluate sleep disorders in nurses working on rotating shifts in Shahid Beheshti Hospital, Kashan.We Used Sleep Disorder Questionnaire (SDQ) of Michigan University, sleeplessness sheet of City College of New York and Epworth Sleepiness Scale. The questionnaire was prepared and filled for all nurses of Shahid Beheshti Hospital .Out of 128 nurses who completed questionnaires, more than 96% were suffering from sleep disorders. Among them 0.8% had only sleepiness during the day, 30.4% had only nightly sleeplessness and 68% had both nightly sleeplessness and sleepiness during the day. All nurses enrolled in the study 96.9% of women and 96.7% of men had sleep disorders. Rate of sleep disorders in RN staff was 98.5%, in high school graduated nurses 93.75% and in technician nurses was 100%. Rates of sleep disorders in married and single nurses were 99 and 90.32%, respectively. Rate of sleep disorders among nurses who worked on rotating shifts was 97.54%, while this rate in nurses who worked only on day shift was 83.33%. Results of this study demonstrated high prevalence of sleep disorder among enrolled nurses-most probably because of shift working and extra working-that needs a serious attention. Rate of sleep disorders was higher in nurses who worked on shift, but the difference was not statistically significant. |
