Correlation Between Sleep Quality Of Night Shift Nurses And Traditional Chinese Medicine Constitution

Objective:By understanding the sleep quality of night shift nurses and the types of TCM physique,analyze the correlation between night shift nurses’sleep quality and TCM physique,and provide a scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of insomnia based on the TCM constitution theory.Method:A cross-sectional research method was adopted to select 506 night shift nurses from a tertiary grade A hospital in Guangzhou from June 2019 to December 2019 through a convenient sample survey method,and an on-site questionnaire survey was adopted to investigate the general data of the night shift nurses through the general data scale.,The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)was used to investigate the sleep quality of night shift nurses,and the TCM physique identification software link was used to determine the TCM physique type of night shift nurses.And further analyze the correlation between Chinese medicine constitution and sleep quality.Results:1.General situation:Regarding the sleep quality of night shift nurses,this study issued 506 questionnaires and 481 valid questionnaires were returned,with an effective recovery rate of 95.1%;the average age of the 481 subjects was(34.56±9.82)years old;the population was female,40 Under the age of,college degree or above,working experience less than 15 years,etc.are mainly.2.Sleep quality:Among the 481 night shift nurses,156 had a total PSQI score of 8 points,accounting for 32.43%.Compared with the domestic norm,the night shift nurses’PSQI scores and total scores on the subjective sleep quality,latency to fall asleep,sleep time,sleep efficiency,sleep interference factors,and daytime dysfunction were all higher than the domestic norm(all P0.05).3.TCM physique distribution law:The top four physique distribution of 481 night shift nurses in TCM were Qi depression(27.4%),damp-heat quality(17.9%),phlegm-damp quality(12.3%),and peaceful quality(10.6%).The proportions of calmness,qi stagnation,damp-heat,phlegm-dampness,blood stasis in the normal sleep group were statistically different from those in the sleep disorder group(all P0.05).4.Correlation analysis of traditional Chinese medicine constitution and sleep quality:Logistic regression analysis shows that calmness is a protective factor for sleep quality,while qi stagnation,dampness and heat,phlegm and blood stasis are risk factors for sleep disorders.Conclusion:1.Night shift nurses generally have poor sleep quality;2.The physical distribution of night shift nurses in traditional Chinese medicine is mainly qi stagnation,damp-heat,phlegm,and calm;3.Peacefulness is a protective factor for the sleep quality of night shift nurses.Qi stagnation,dampness and heat,phlegm and blood stasis are risk factors for night shift nurses’sleep quality.
