This study was performed to determine relationship between premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and sleep quality among nursing and medical students.
This descriptive, cross-sectional and correlational study was completed with 313 students attending the nursing department and medical faculty. Data were collected using the premenstrual syndrome scale (PMSS) and Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI).
The PSQI was positively correlated with PMSS and its subscales scores. Sleep changes were the strongest predictor, followed by depressive thoughts (p < .01), depressive mood, bloating and total PMSS (p < .05) for sleep quality.
Training should be organized about PMS for university students to provide information and skills about managing symptoms, and to increase the awareness about this syndrome. Interventional studies should be planned to increase sleep quality in PMS.
本研究旨在确定经前期综合征(PMS)与护理和医学生睡眠质量之间的关系。
这是一项描述性、横断面和相关性研究,共有 313 名护理系和医学系的学生参与。使用经前期综合征量表(PMSS)和匹兹堡睡眠质量指数(PSQI)收集数据。
PSQI 与 PMSS 及其分量表评分呈正相关。睡眠变化是睡眠质量的最强预测因素,其次是抑郁性思维(p<0.01)、抑郁情绪、腹胀和总 PMSS(p<0.05)。
应针对大学生组织关于 PMS 的培训,提供关于管理症状的信息和技能,并提高对这种综合征的认识。应计划进行干预性研究,以提高 PMS 患者的睡眠质量。
