Sleep Quality in an Asthmatic Adult Population in Saudi Arabia: A Cross-Sectional Study.
Background & aims: Asthma is a chronic disorder affecting health-related quality of life. This study aimed to explore differences in sleep quality based on individual characteristics, such as smoking habits and asthma.
Methods: This cross-sectional study included Saudi citizens aged ≥18 years. A questionnaire was used to collect information regarding demographics, sleep quality, smoking history, and physical activity.
Results: We included 489 participants (male, 58%), divided into three main groups for analysis: (1) individuals with asthma (n=52), smokers (n=104), and controls (n=333). In total, 71.15% (n=37) of individuals with asthma and 64.4% (n=67) of the smokers had sleep difficulties. Furthermore, 61.5% (n=32) of individuals with asthma and 56.7% (n=59) of smokers were found to be insufficiently active. Additionally, 15.4% (n=8) of individuals with asthma and 15.4% of smokers (n=16) were moderately active. Finally, 23.1% (n=12) of individuals with asthma and 27.9% (n=29) of smokers were active. The questionnaire also revealed that 57.7% (n=282) of respondents had poor sleep quality, with a significantly higher rate among individuals with asthma (71.15%; n=37; mean ± SD: 10 ± 3.57) compared to that among non-asthmatics (50%; n=245; mean ± SD: 6.58 ± 3.61; P=0.027).
Conclusion: Asthma has a significant impact on sleep quality and physical activity levels. Poor sleep quality adversely affects the quality of life, suggesting that increased public awareness of these risk factors is crucial.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare (JMDH) aims to represent and publish research in healthcare areas delivered by practitioners of different disciplines. This includes studies and reviews conducted by multidisciplinary teams as well as research which evaluates or reports the results or conduct of such teams or healthcare processes in general. The journal covers a very wide range of areas and we welcome submissions from practitioners at all levels and from all over the world. Good healthcare is not bounded by person, place or time and the journal aims to reflect this. The JMDH is published as an open-access journal to allow this wide range of practical, patient relevant research to be immediately available to practitioners who can access and use it immediately upon publication.
