The purpose of the study was to measure changes in sleep quality and perceived stress and their interrelationships in a sample of healthcare workers two years post the COVID-19 pandemic. Using a cohort design, data were collected from frontline healthcare workers (FLHCW, = 70) and non-frontline healthcare workers (NFLHCW, = 74) in April 2020 (T1) and in February 2022 (T2). The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) were administered at both time points. There were no differences in sleep quality or perceived stress between FLHCW and NFLHCW at either timepoint. For the entire sample, the PSQI scores at T2 were significantly higher than at T1 (7.56 ± 3.26 and 7.25 ± 3.29, respectively) ( = 0.03, Cohen's d = 0.18). PSS-10 scores at T2 were significantly lower than at T1 (19.85 ± 7.73 and 21.13 ± 7.41, respectively) ( = 0.001, Cohen's d = 0.78). Baseline sleep quality PSQI (T1) was a significant predictor for changes in sleep quality. During the initial months of the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, poor sleep quality and perceived stress were common for healthcare workers. Two years into the pandemic, the perceived stress was reduced, but sleep quality worsened.
该研究的目的是测量新冠疫情爆发两年后，医护人员样本的睡眠质量和感知压力的变化及其相互关系。采用队列设计，于2020年4月（T1）和2022年2月（T2）收集了一线医护人员（FLHCW，n = 70）和非一线医护人员（NFLHCW，n = 74）的数据。在两个时间点均使用匹兹堡睡眠质量指数（PSQI）和感知压力量表（PSS - 10）进行评估。在任一 时间点，FLHCW和NFLHCW之间的睡眠质量或感知压力均无差异。对于整个样本，T2时的PSQI得分显著高于T1时（分别为7.56±3.26和7.25±3.29）（p = 0.03，科恩d值 = 0.18）。T2时的PSS - 10得分显著低于T1时（分别为19.85±7.73和21.13±7.41）（p = 0.001，科恩d值 = 0.78）。基线睡眠质量PSQI（T1）是睡眠质量变化的显著预测因素。在新冠疫情爆发的最初几个月，医护人员普遍存在睡眠质量差和感知压力大的情况。疫情爆发两年后，感知压力有所降低，但睡眠质量却恶化了。
