Abstract

Purpose: To describe the sleep habits (bedtime hours, waking hours, sleep duration) and to assess the prevalence of sleep disturbances (acute and chronic insomnia, insufficient sleep, perceived sleep debt) among French healthcare workers.

Participants and methods: Nurses and assistant nurses working in public hospitals from the Loire department at different work schedules (2x12h, 2x8h, fixed daytime, fixed nighttime) were asked about their socioprofessional and demographic information, their sleep habits and disturbances during night shifts, and the acceptability of a 20-min nap opportunity.

Results: A total of 297 healthcare workers completed the survey with 76% reporting a sleep debt with a lower prevalence for fixed nighttime workers (62%) and a higher prevalence for 2x12 h (84%) workers. The prevalence of acute insomnia was 76% with a significant difference between fixed nighttime (60%) and 2x12 h (82%); whereas the prevalence of chronic insomnia was 35% without any significant difference between working schedules. Moreover, 18% of healthcare workers reported excessive daytime sleepiness, while 13% admitted to using sleep medication at least once a week.

Conclusion: French healthcare workers reported poor sleep quality with a high prevalence of sleep debt, acute and chronic insomnia symptoms without an obvious impact of working schedules.

医护人员的睡眠习惯和干扰：法国公立医院横断面调查。

目的：描述法国医护人员的睡眠习惯（就寝时间、清醒时间、睡眠持续时间），并评估睡眠障碍（急性和慢性失眠、睡眠不足、感知睡眠欠缺）的发生率：调查对象为卢瓦尔河省公立医院的护士和助理护士，他们的工作时间各不相同（2x12小时、2x8小时、固定日班、固定夜班），调查询问了他们的社会职业和人口信息、睡眠习惯和夜班期间的睡眠障碍，以及对20分钟小睡机会的接受程度：共有 297 名医护人员完成了调查，其中 76% 的人报告有睡眠欠账，固定夜班人员的睡眠欠账率较低（62%），而 2x12 小时班人员的睡眠欠账率较高（84%）。急性失眠的发生率为 76%，固定夜间工作（60%）和 2x12 小时工作（82%）之间存在显著差异；而慢性失眠的发生率为 35%，不同工作时间之间没有显著差异。此外，18%的医护人员表示白天过度嗜睡，13%的医护人员承认每周至少使用一次睡眠药物：结论：法国医护人员的睡眠质量较差，睡眠负债、急性和慢性失眠症状的发生率较高，但工作时间并无明显影响。

期刊介绍： Nature and Science of Sleep is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal covering all aspects of sleep science and sleep medicine, including the neurophysiology and functions of sleep, the genetics of sleep, sleep and society, biological rhythms, dreaming, sleep disorders and therapy, and strategies to optimize healthy sleep. Specific topics covered in the journal include: The functions of sleep in humans and other animals Physiological and neurophysiological changes with sleep The genetics of sleep and sleep differences The neurotransmitters, receptors and pathways involved in controlling both sleep and wakefulness Behavioral and pharmacological interventions aimed at improving sleep, and improving wakefulness Sleep changes with development and with age Sleep and reproduction (e.g., changes across the menstrual cycle, with pregnancy and menopause) The science and nature of dreams Sleep disorders Impact of sleep and sleep disorders on health, daytime function and quality of life Sleep problems secondary to clinical disorders Interaction of society with sleep (e.g., consequences of shift work, occupational health, public health) The microbiome and sleep Chronotherapy Impact of circadian rhythms on sleep, physiology, cognition and health Mechanisms controlling circadian rhythms, centrally and peripherally Impact of circadian rhythm disruptions (including night shift work, jet lag and social jet lag) on sleep, physiology, cognition and health Behavioral and pharmacological interventions aimed at reducing adverse effects of circadian-related sleep disruption Assessment of technologies and biomarkers for measuring sleep and/or circadian rhythms Epigenetic markers of sleep or circadian disruption.
