Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics and correlated factors of preoperative sleep disorders in patients undergoing various types of cardiac surgery. Methods: The data of patients at the Structural Heart Surgery Center of Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University, from April 2023 to February 2024 were retrospectively collected. Patients were categorized into five groups based on cardiac surgical diagnosis: coronary heart disease, valvular disease, large vessel disease, congenital heart disease, and others. Each group was further subdivided into normal sleep (NS) and sleep disorder (SD) groups based on the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scores. Demographic information, cognitive function, psychiatric symptoms, and other relevant data were collected. Clinical characteristics were compared between groups, and factors associated with preoperative sleep disorders were analyzed using multivariate logistic regression. Results: A total of 1 016 patients aged (58.6±12.7) years were included in the study, including 701 males and 315 females. The incidence of SD was 45.6% (463/1 016). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that aging was a risk factor for sleep disorders in patients with coronary heart disease (OR=1.050, 95%CI: 1.026-1.077) and valvular disease (OR=1.033, 95%CI: 1.013-1.053). High Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) score was a risk factor for sleep disorders in patients with valvular disease (OR=1.050, 95%CI: 1.013-1.091). High score on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) subitem-abstraction ability was a protective factor for sleep disorders in patients with coronary heart disease (OR=0.695, 95%CI: 0.490-0.981). Conclusions: The risk factors of preoperative sleep disorders in cardiac surgery patients vary based on the type of cardiac disease. Aging, depression and abstraction ability correlate with sleep disorders in cardiac surgical patients.
