Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to identify prevalence of excessive daytime sleepiness(EDS) and its associations with sleep habits, sleep problems, depression, subjective health status and obesity in community dwelling adults. Method: Data was collected from adults aged 20-59 years by random sampling. Subjects completed a questionnaire which was composed of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale, Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, and questions that included items about sleep habits, sleep problems, subjective health status and sociodemographic characteristics. Height and weight were measured for calculation of body mass index. The statistical analyses was based on 3,302 adults (51.5% males and 48.5% females). Descriptive statistics, univariate logistic regression and multiple logistic regression were used. Result: The prevalence of EDS was 17.1% Multiple logistic regression showed that the associated factors of EDS were depression, obesity, dissatisfaction with sleep time, irregular sleep, and habitual snoring. Depression was the most significant associated factor(adjusted odds ratio for severe depression=2.27, 95% Confidence Interval=1.73-2.96). Conclusion: EDS is a common symptom in adults. Our finding suggested that persons with a complaint of EDS should be completely assessed for depression and obesity as well as sleep problems.

This study aimed to investigate the sleep-wake patterns, social jetlag (SJL), and daytime sleepiness (DS) among air traffic controllers (ATCs) with rotating shifts. A total of 133 shift-rotating ATCs participated by completing self-report questionnaires regarding their sleep-wake patterns and DS. SJL, indicating the mid-sleep difference between workdays (W) and free days (F), was calculated for each shift. Night-shift workdays had the shortest sleep duration (SD) (5.28 hours), whereas free days following day shifts had the longest SD (6.66 hours). SJL for day and night shifts was 2.73 and 2.71 hours, respectively. The average DS score was 7.92 out of 24, with a 28.6% prevalence of DS. There was a negative correlation between SD following day shifts and SJL for the day shifts. Given these findings, it is recommended to implement effective interventions and work schedules to maintain consistent sleep patterns and minimize social jetlag to address sleep issues for shift-working ATCs.

간호 대학생의 실습 전, 후 임상실습 스트레스, 수면의 질, 주간 졸림증 차이와 관계를 확인하는데 목적이 있다. 연구대상은 간호학과 3학년 학생 130명이다. 연구결과 연구 대상자의 임상실습 스트레스는 총점 5점 만점 중 평균점수 3.15점으로 나타났다. 임상실습 스트레스의 외부조정 요인 중 과제물에 대한 점수가 3.64로 가장 높았고, 성별(t=-3.88, p<.001), 주관적 건강상태(F=5.78, p=.004), 거주형태(F=3.20, p=.026)에 유의한 차이가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 간호대학생은 수면의 질이 낮고(실습 전 80.0%, 실습 후 70.0%), 주간 졸림증이 있는 대상이(실습 전 26.9%, 실습 후 42.3%) 일반 대학생에 비해 많음을 확인 할 수 있었다. 임상실습 전, 후 수면의 질은(χ²=4.06, p=.004), 주간 졸림증은(χ²=6.08, p=.009)로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 또한 주간 졸림증과 수면의 질은 음의 상관관계(r=-.259, p<0.01)가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 간호 대학생들의 신체적 건강 및 정신적 건강을 위하여 임상실습 스트레스를 줄이고 수면의 질을 높일 수 있는 전략 개발이 필요하며, 변화하는 간호 교육현장에서 임상실습 적응에 도움이 되도록 하여 추후 간호의 질을 향상시킬 수 있도록 해야겠다.

본 연구는 야간 근무 도시철도승무원을 대상으로 직무스트레스와 수면장애가 낮 시간대 졸음에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 분석결과 낮 시간대 졸음 지수는 타 근무시간대 보다 높게 측정되어 졸음 정도가 심한 것으로 나타났다. 이후 일반적으로 수면장애 및 스트레스 완화에 도움이 된다고 알려진 아로마에센셜 오일을 야간근무 근무자들에게 처치하여 스트레스와 자율신경계에 미치는 효과를 검증하였다. 아로마테라피를 처치 받은 실험군은 아무것도 처치하지 않은 대조군과 비교하여 스트레스의 감소, 자율신경계의 전체 활성도가 개선되는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 도시철도승무원의 야간근무가 스트레스 증가와 자율신경계에 부정적으로 영향을 미치며, 이를 완화하기 위하여 아로마테라피 처치가 좋은 대안이 될 수 있음을 입증하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 야간 근무자들의 스트레스를 완화시켜 잠재적인 안전사고 예방에도 도움이 될 것으로 기대된다.

Sleep apnea syndrome is a common clinical disorder characterized by intermittent cessation of airflow at nose and mouth during sleep. The clinical significance of this syndrome is that it is one of the most common causes of excessive daytime sleepiness. It can also cause neuropsychiatric, cardiovascular, and cerebrovascular complications. The standard for diagnosis of sleep apnea syndrome is nocturnal polysomnography. Because polysomnography is a time-consuming and expensive test, many efforts have been made to replace polysomnography with a simpler system of monitoring, but no method has yet been approved as a definitive investigation method. The goals of treatment for this syndrome are to eliminate excessive daytime sleepiness and to reduce the risk of possible cardiovascular complications. Continuous positive airway pressure is the most definite and widely accepted treatment for achieving these goals. Other treatments such as surgical treatment, oral appliances, and behavioral therapy may be useful for selected patients who are mildly affected.

It is very difficult to evaluate sleep disorders by simple history taking, because which covers very comprehensive areas such as psychobiosocial fields. Although polysomnography is used for the method of final diagnosis, systemic history taking and sleep question-aires are still critically important especially in evaluation of insomnia. Proper informations through sleep questionnaires can provide very precise data for effective treatment as well as exact diagnosis. Sleep questionnaires consist of largely four kinds of questionnaires, which are screening questionnaire of sleep disorders, sleep diary and questionnaire of sleep hygine, diagnostic questionnaire for specific sleep disorder and questionnaire of special symptoms of sleep disorders including insomnia, daytime sleepiness, cognitive function, mental symptom and personality, parasomnia, physical illness and sexual function. However, for more conclusive diagnosis especially in excessive daytime sleepiness nocturnal polysomnography and multiple sleep latency test should be performed.

Background: The present study was carried out to assess the relationship between sickness absence and occupational stress, sleep quality, and amplitude and stability of circadian rhythm as well as to determine contributing factors of sickness absence. Methods: This cross sectional study was conducted on 400 randomly selected employees of an Iranian gas company. The data were collected using Pittsburgh sleep quality index, Karolinska sleepiness scale, circadian type inventory, and Osipow occupational stress questionnaires. Results: The mean age and job tenure of the participants were $33.18{\pm}5.64years$ and $6.06{\pm}4.99years$, respectively. Also, the participants had been absent from work on average 2.16 days a year. According to the results, 209 participants had no absences, 129 participants had short-term absences, and 62 participants had long-term absences. The results showed a significant relationship between short-term absenteeism and amplitude of circadian rhythm [odds ratio (OR) = 6.13], sleep quality (OR = 14.46), sleepiness (OR = 2.08), role boundary (OR = 6.45), and responsibility (OR = 5.23). Long-term absenteeism was also significantly associated with amplitude of circadian rhythm (OR = 2.42), sleep quality (OR = 21.56), sleepiness (OR = 6.44), role overload (OR = 4.84), role boundary (OR = 4.27), and responsibility (OR = 3.72). Conclusion: The results revealed that poor sleep quality, amplitude of circadian rhythm, and occupational stress were the contributing factors for sickness absence in the study population.
