The COVID-19 pandemic not only affected physical health but also caused high levels of mental health problems including sleep disturbances, depression and post-traumatic stress symptoms. The aim of this study was to examine the sleep parameters of healthcare workers before COVID-19 infection and after recovery.
Healthcare workers who were infected with COVID-19 and whose treatment was completed at least 30 days ago were included in the study. A web-based cross-sectional survey was conducted on the participants.
The median PSQI score increased significantly after COVID-19 infection (7.0) compared with the level before COVID-19 infection (5.0). The increases in median scores for subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep duration, sleep efficiency, sleep disturbance, use of sleeping medication and daytime dysfunction were all significant.
Sleep quality decreased during the convalescence period from COVID-19 infection as compared with the pre-COVID-19 period.
COVID-19 大流行不仅影响身体健康，还导致了高水平的心理健康问题，包括睡眠障碍、抑郁和创伤后应激症状。本研究旨在研究 COVID-19 感染前和康复后医护人员的睡眠参数。
本研究纳入了已治愈的 COVID-19 感染医护人员。采用基于网络的横断面调查对参与者进行调查。
与 COVID-19 感染前相比，COVID-19 感染后 PSQI 评分中位数显著升高（7.0 比 5.0）。主观睡眠质量、入睡潜伏期、睡眠时间、睡眠效率、睡眠障碍、使用助眠药物和日间功能障碍的评分中位数增加均有统计学意义。
与 COVID-19 前相比，COVID-19 感染康复期间的睡眠质量下降。
