Abstract
Background: Fatigue, sleep disorders, and daytime sleepiness are interconnected, posing significant risks to occupational health and workplace safety. However, the literature on their relationships remains fragmented, with notable gaps, particularly concerning working populations. This descriptive cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate sleep quality (SQ), daily sleep time in hours (DST), daytime sleepiness, fatigue levels among employees in an automotive workplace, and their interrelationships.
Methods: This study assessed fatigue, DST, SQ, and daytime sleepiness (DTS) among employees aged 21-51 years working under the same conditions. Data were collected using questionnaires and two validated scales: the Check Individual Strength Scale (CIS) for fatigue and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) for excessive daytime sleepiness.
Results: None of the Check Individual Strength Scale (CIS), or SQ points, mean values or DST hours values significantly differ due to any sociodemographic independent variables. Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) points mean values differ significantly due to BMI values. However, statistically significant relationships were identified among CIS, ESS, SQ points, and DST hours. Additionally, a positive correlation was observed between ESS and CIS scores. These findings suggest reciprocal effects among fatigue, SQ, DST, and daytime sleepiness.
Conclusion: While sleep problems cause fatigue also chronic fatigue syndrome may be the reason of worse SQ. Further research is necessary to emphasize the importance of addressing the interplay between fatigue, excessive daytime sleepiness, SQ, and DST in hours to improve workplace safety and employee well-being.
期刊介绍：
The journal Sleep and Breathing aims to reflect the state of the art in the international science and practice of sleep medicine. The journal is based on the recognition that management of sleep disorders requires a multi-disciplinary approach and diverse perspectives. The initial focus of Sleep and Breathing is on timely and original studies that collect, intervene, or otherwise inform all clinicians and scientists in medicine, dentistry and oral surgery, otolaryngology, and epidemiology on the management of the upper airway during sleep.
Furthermore, Sleep and Breathing endeavors to bring readers cutting edge information about all evolving aspects of common sleep disorders or disruptions, such as insomnia and shift work. The journal includes not only patient studies, but also studies that emphasize the principles of physiology and pathophysiology or illustrate potentially novel approaches to diagnosis and treatment. In addition, the journal features articles that describe patient-oriented and cost-benefit health outcomes research. Thus, with peer review by an international Editorial Board and prompt English-language publication, Sleep and Breathing provides rapid dissemination of clinical and clinically related scientific information. But it also does more: it is dedicated to making the most important developments in sleep disordered breathing easily accessible to clinicians who are treating sleep apnea by presenting well-chosen, well-written, and highly organized information that is useful for patient care.
