Sleep quality significantly impacts health-related quality of life (QoL). However, the link between sleep quality and QoL needs further exploration, especially in the context of Saudi Arabia.
To assess the effect of sleep quality on QoL among visitors of lifestyle clinics at the National Guard primary healthcare centers in the Western region of Saudi Arabia in 2023.
A cross-sectional study was conducted among 369 participants. Data were collected using a questionnaire that addressed sociodemographic characteristics, sleep quality, and perceived QoL. Sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), while QoL was measured using the Short Form-20 (SF-20) QoL scale. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY).
The median age of participants was 38 years, and the median PSQI score was 9, indicating poor sleep quality. Significant differences in sleep quality were found relating to gender and income. Male gender and low-income status were associated with lower sleep quality. The scores for sleep quality varied between 3 and 16, with a median score of 9, while QoL scores ranged from 34 to 92, with a median score of 72. Good sleep quality was found only among 4.9% of the participants and was associated with higher QoL scores. The correlation between sleep quality and QoL was significant, with a correlation coefficient of -0.399 (p-value < 0.001).
The study identifies a significant correlation between poor sleep quality and lower QoL among visitors of lifestyle clinics in the Western region of Saudi Arabia. These findings suggest the necessity of addressing sleep quality in interventions aimed at improving overall well-being.
睡眠质量对健康相关生活质量（QoL）有显著影响。然而，睡眠质量与生活质量之间的联系需要进一步探索，尤其是在沙特阿拉伯的背景下。
评估2023年沙特阿拉伯西部地区国民警卫队初级医疗中心生活方式诊所访客的睡眠质量对生活质量的影响。
对369名参与者进行了一项横断面研究。使用一份涉及社会人口学特征、睡眠质量和感知生活质量的问卷收集数据。睡眠质量使用匹兹堡睡眠质量指数（PSQI）进行评估，而生活质量则使用简短形式-20（SF-20）生活质量量表进行测量。使用SPSS（IBM公司，纽约州阿蒙克）进行统计分析。
参与者的中位年龄为38岁，PSQI中位得分为9分，表明睡眠质量较差。在睡眠质量方面发现了与性别和收入相关的显著差异。男性和低收入状态与较低的睡眠质量相关。睡眠质量得分在3至16分之间，中位得分为9分，而生活质量得分在34至92分之间，中位得分为72分。仅4.9%的参与者睡眠质量良好，且与较高的生活质量得分相关。睡眠质量与生活质量之间的相关性显著，相关系数为-0.399（p值<0.001）。
该研究确定了沙特阿拉伯西部地区生活方式诊所访客中睡眠质量差与较低生活质量之间存在显著相关性。这些发现表明，在旨在改善整体幸福感的干预措施中解决睡眠质量问题的必要性。
