Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the level of sleep quality and functionality in physical therapy students from the perspective of the International Classification of Functioning. Methods: Descriptive, quantitative study approved by CEP/UESPI. A questionnaire developed by the researchers was used to outline the sociodemographic profile, as well as the validated questionnaire “Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index” to evaluate the sleep quality of physical therapy students. Regarding the statistical analysis, a 95% confidence interval and a significance value of p<0.05 were considered. Results: 55.89% of the students presented poor sleep quality, 23.53% had sleep disorders and 20.58% had good sleep quality. Analyzing the sleep data, the median was: bedtime at 11:00 p.m., latency of 20 minutes to reach sleep, waking up at 6:00 a.m. and sleeping 6 hours per night. A predominance of females was identified with 69.12% and 30.88% for males. The age range varied between 18 and 32 years with a mean age of 21.64 (SD + - 2.29) years. Regarding functionality, the components of body functions, environmental factors and activity and participation are altered, among them b1341 (sleep functions), b1343 (sleep quality), e2250 (temperature), d230 (performing the daily routine). Conclusion: Physical therapy students presented poor sleep quality and alterations in sleep functionality within the domains of body functions, environmental factors and activity and participation.
