Abstract
to analyze quality of sleep among students of technical courses in nursing according to the exercise of work activity. a cross-sectional and analytical research, with 213 students from Paraná. Characterization data and the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index were collected between March and June 2020 and analyzed descriptively and inferentially. quality of poor sleep was 76.5% among those who work and 75.3% among those who do not work. Difficulty in reconciling personal and academic life (p=0.016;adjOR:3.450) and indicating anxiety due to school activities (p=0.017;adjOR:3.236) increased the chances of poor sleep quality among working students. Satisfaction with health reduced the chances of poor sleep quality, regardless of exercising work activity (p=0.002;adjOR:0.210) or not (p=0.008;adjOR:0.215). students who performed work activities have worse sleep quality due to anxiety and the multiple activities to be reconciled with the study.
Highlights
Sleep is essential for humans because of its function of physical restoration, conservation, energy and protection
Of the 560 eligible, 213 students participated in the study, most of them female, aged 18 to 29 years, with children, who lived with their families, private school courses and who reconciled work activities and study (Table 1)
Research indicated that the double work-study day, especially when work is performed at night, led to difficulty sleeping during the day, compromising health and social relationships, affecting academic life, because the permanence in studies depends on the organization of working life[22]
Summary
Sleep is essential for humans because of its function of physical restoration, conservation, energy and protection. This physiological condition is controlled by a period of drowsiness and wakefulness, and circadian rhythm occurs in the 24 hours and coordinates internal time according to external influences, such as light and darkness. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine and the Sleep Research Society guidelines indicated that adults aged 18 to 60 should have at least seven hours of sleep daily to achieve good quality life[2]. Sleep may vary in quality and proportion of duration, depending on daily activities. Some people may adapt to a small sleep load to perform the cycle; while others, when exposing the multiplicity of tasks, decrease school performance and present metabolic and cardiovascular alterations[3]
