Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 44
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is one of the common chronic medical conditions affecting approximately 422 million people worldwide. Studies have shown that upto one-third of patients with DM suffer from concomitant sleep difficulties. Numerous studies have recognised diabetes as a novel risk factor for sleep disorders via peripheral neuropathy or endocrine-metabolic pathway. Aim- The present study was undertaken to compare the sleep quality in type 2 diabetes patients and non-diabetic patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS 100 cases of type II diabetes mellitus and 100 non-diabetic age matched controls including both males and females were assessed for sleep quality. Sleep quality was assessed by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). RESULTS Demographic data was not significantly different between cases and controls. Sleep quality was significantly lower in cases when compared to controls. CONCLUSION The seven components of PSQI scored less for diabetics, which indicates that the sleep quality in diabetics is significantly lower in comparison to non-diabetic patients.
