Abstract

Background Women may have a wide range of symptoms in the menopausal period, which includes vasomotor, mood changes, and disturbances of sleep. Disturbance of sleep leads to adverse health problems with poor quality of life. This study researched the comparison of polysomnographic parameters between menopausal and childbearing women. Patients and methods This study was carried out on 47 women (divided into two groups of premenopausal and postmenopausal), who attended for polysomnography in the Unit of Sleep in the Department of Chest Diseases in Menoufia University Hospital from the period of September 2021 to September 2022. After taking informed written consent, all participants were subjected to history taking, full examination, Epworth sleepiness scale, STOP-Bang questionnaire, and polysomnography. Results This study was carried out on 47 women who were divided into two groups: group I (29 participants) in menopause with an age of 58.9 ± 6.3 (mean±SD) and group II (18 participants) in the childbearing period with an age of 37.28 ± 8.064 (mean±SD). Polysomnographic parameters showed statistically significant differences between both groups regarding sleep latency (min) (P=0.026), sleep efficiency% (P=0.019), apnea–hypopnea index (P<0.001), O2 desaturation index, and lowest O2 saturation during sleep (P<0.001 and 0.01, respectively). Conclusion Women in menopausal women experience more sleep disturbance, insomnia, and sleep breathing disorders than they did during the childbearing years. Women in this age group, therefore, require a more thorough assessment of sleep difficulties and other relevant variables.
女性多导睡眠图:育龄期和绝经期有区别吗?
绝经期妇女可能有多种症状,包括血管舒缩、情绪变化和睡眠障碍。睡眠障碍会导致不良的健康问题,影响生活质量。本研究研究了绝经期和育龄妇女多导睡眠图参数的比较。患者和方法本研究对47名妇女(分为绝经前和绝经后两组)进行了研究,这些妇女于2021年9月至2022年9月在Menoufia大学医院胸科睡眠单元接受了多导睡眠图检查。在获得知情同意书后,所有参与者接受病史记录、全面检查、Epworth嗜睡量表、STOP-Bang问卷和多导睡眠描记仪。结果本研究共纳入47例女性,分为绝经期组(29例),年龄58.9±6.3(平均±SD);育龄组(18例),年龄37.28±8.064(平均±SD)。两组多导睡眠图参数在睡眠潜伏期(min) (P=0.026)、睡眠效率% (P=0.019)、呼吸暂停低通气指数(P<0.001)、氧去饱和指数和睡眠时最低氧饱和度(P分别<0.001和0.01)方面差异均有统计学意义。结论绝经期妇女睡眠障碍、失眠、睡眠呼吸障碍发生率高于育龄期妇女。因此,这个年龄段的女性需要对睡眠困难和其他相关变量进行更彻底的评估。
