Many studies across the globe have observed the significant effect of sleep disturbance on the academic achievement of medical students. Objective: This research was conducted to define the prevalence of sleep disturbance and to discover the consequences and management of this condition among undergraduate pharmacy students of Mohammed Al-Mana College for Medical Sciences (MACHS).
We conducted a questionnaire-based online survey among different levels of MACHS pharmacy students.
A total of 165 students participated in the study, of whom 132 (80%) were females and 33 (20%) were males. Most of the participants, 142 (86.06%), were staying with their parents, whereas few of them were staying alone (23; 13.94%). While a handful of them, 29 (17.58%), did not have their bedrooms, most of them had their bedrooms (136; 82.42%). When asked about drinking caffeine-rich products in the afternoon or at night, most of them responded "sometimes" (78; 47.27%), followed by the category "always" (61; 36.97%), "rarely" (15; 9.09%), and then the category of students who responded "not at all" (11; 6.67%). Overall, 35 (21.21%) of the study participants had a smoking habit, 72 (43.63%) tried to treat their sleep disturbance, whereas 42 (25.45%) were getting treatment for insomnia.
Most pharmacy students at MACH College, especially females, have sleep problems. Mostly, the prevalence is common during exam periods, and it mildly affects their grade point average.
全球许多研究都观察到睡眠障碍对医学生学业成绩的显著影响。目的：本研究旨在确定睡眠障碍的患病率，并发现穆罕默德·阿拉纳医学科学学院（MACHS）本科药学专业学生中这种情况的后果及应对措施。
我们对MACHS不同年级的药学专业学生进行了基于问卷的在线调查。
共有165名学生参与了该研究，其中132名（80%）为女性，33名（20%）为男性。大多数参与者，即142名（86.06%）与父母同住，而只有少数人独自居住（23名；13.94%）。虽然少数人，即29名（17.58%）没有自己的卧室，但大多数人有自己的卧室（136名；82.42%）。当被问及下午或晚上是否饮用富含咖啡因的产品时，大多数人回答“有时”（78名；47.27%），其次是“总是”（61名；36.97%）、“很少”（15名；9.09%），然后是回答“从不”的学生类别（11名；6.67%）。总体而言，35名（21.21%）研究参与者有吸烟习惯，72名（43.63%）试图治疗他们的睡眠障碍，而42名（25.45%）正在接受失眠治疗。
MACHS学院的大多数药学专业学生，尤其是女生，存在睡眠问题。这种情况在考试期间最为普遍，并且对他们的平均绩点有轻微影响。
