Abstract | ||||
It's common for people with interstitial lung diseases to have problems in sleeping. Lack of sleep or poor quality sleep has been associated to an impaired quality of life, an increased risk of death, and even tragedy in children with ILD. Consider the Big Picture: Patients at Minia university Hospital who have been diagnosed with interstitial lung diseases will be surveyed to assess their sleep quality. Research Strategies and Human Subjects With a diagnosis of lung disease, 110 patients were recruited between December 2019 and December 2021 at Minia University Hospital's inpatient sector or intense outpatient plan of such chest department. Data collected included demographic boundaries (age, sex, body mass index [BMI] and occupational history). The pulmonary capacities were evaluated. Patients assessed their own sleep using a quiz (Pittsburgh sleep quality index PSQI, Epworth sleepiness scale ESS, and STOP BANG) to provide feedback on its quality. The subjects were also required to walk during 6 minutes (6-MWT). The average age of our sample of 110 patients with ILD was 51.9 ±14.5, but 81.8% were female. There were sixty-three patients (57.2%) who complained about having poor sleep. Both the Epworth sleepiness scale and the mass index showed significantly different distributions across the groups. When comparing the high-quality sleep group to the low-quality sleep group, the high-quality group had significantly higher rates both of BMI and Epworth sleep scale (p0.0001 and p0.02, respectively). This means that people with ILD have bad sleep patterns regardless of their health. | ||||
