Sleep Quality in Hypertensive and Diabetic Populations in the Taubaté and Tremembé Region

Introdução

Sleep quality is essential for health, being negatively impacted by comorbidities like hypertension and diabetes. This study investigates how these conditions affect sleep quality in populations of the Taubaté and Tremembé regions.

Objetivo

To evaluate sleep quality in individuals with and without hypertension and/or diabetes in the Taubaté and Tremembé populations.

Métodos

Cross-sectional, quantitative study conducted with 2469 participants during the “36th Week of Hypertension and Diabetes Prevention”. The questionnaire included general data, information about diabetes and hypertension, blood pressure and blood glucose measurements taken on-site, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index.

Resultados

Among diabetics (n=164), 58.54% reported satisfactory sleep. Among hypertensive individuals (n=550), 54.91% reported satisfactory sleep. Individuals with both conditions (n=448) showed the worst rates, with 47.99% reporting satisfactory sleep.Those without comorbidities (n=1307) had the highest prevalence of satisfactory sleep (58.87%).

Conclusões

Diabetics and hypertensives had worse sleep quality compared to individuals without these conditions, with the impact being most
pronounced in individuals with both comorbidities. These findings suggest the need for specific interventions to improve sleep quality in patients with chronic diseases.
