BACKGROUND
Smartphone use has rapidly increased worldwide. It was estimated that worldwide use of smartphones surpassed 4.3 billion in 2023, which means 54% of the world's population now uses smartphones. However, research shows that excessive smartphone use poses health risks and decreases sleep quality, which can be detrimental for students. This study investigates the impact of problematic smartphone usage on health status, mental health, and sleep quality among medical students enrolled in Sudanese universities.
METHODS
A cross-sectional study was conducted from January to March 2024, targeting medical students and recent graduates from Sudanese universities through an online survey. Data were collected using validated scales for smartphone addiction, sleep quality, suboptimal health status, and mental health. Descriptive and correlation analyses were performed using SPSS software v28.0.0.
RESULTS
Out of 231 respondents (69% female, mean age 22.7), 67.6% exhibited high levels of smartphone addiction. Significant correlations were found between smartphone addiction and poor sleep quality (r = 0.462, p < 0.001), suboptimal health (r = 0.527, p < 0.001), and mental health issues (r = 0.365, p < 0.001). Single students had higher addiction and stress scores, while those living in Sudan showed higher suboptimal health scores.
CONCLUSIONS
Problematic smartphone use (PSU) is prevalent among Sudanese medical students, negatively affecting mental health and sleep.
背景
智能手机在全球范围内的使用迅速增加。据估计，2023年全球智能手机用户超过43亿，这意味着全球54%的人口现在都在使用智能手机。然而，研究表明，过度使用智能手机会带来健康风险并降低睡眠质量，这对学生可能是有害的。本研究调查了苏丹大学医科学生中存在问题的智能手机使用对健康状况、心理健康和睡眠质量的影响。
方法
2024年1月至3月进行了一项横断面研究，通过在线调查针对苏丹大学的医科学生和近期毕业生。使用经过验证的量表收集有关智能手机成瘾、睡眠质量、健康状况不佳和心理健康的数据。使用SPSS软件v28.0.0进行描述性和相关性分析。
结果
在231名受访者中（69%为女性，平均年龄22.7岁），67.6%表现出高度的智能手机成瘾。发现智能手机成瘾与睡眠质量差（r = 0.462，p < 0.001）、健康状况不佳（r = 0.527，p < 0.001）和心理健康问题（r = 0.365，p < 0.001）之间存在显著相关性。单身学生的成瘾和压力得分较高，而居住在苏丹的学生健康状况不佳得分较高。
结论
存在问题的智能手机使用（PSU）在苏丹医科学生中很普遍，对心理健康和睡眠产生负面影响。
