This review highlights the critical role of prioritizing sleep quality to maintain cardiovascular health and overall quality of life.
This review article examines the impact of poor sleep quality on cardiovascular risk factors and quality of life. Insufficient sleep and disturbances in sleep have been linked to a variety of negative health outcomes, including an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, elevated blood pressure, obesity, and a reduced quality of life. This review explores the available evidence connecting poor sleep with these health conditions, analyzing the underlying mechanisms and pathways involved. Additionally, the challenges posed by night work, which can contribute to poor sleep and subsequent health problems, are discussed. The review also discusses evidence-based strategies for improving sleep quality, encompassing sleep hygiene practices, bright light therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia, pharmacological interventions, and emerging digital health solutions. The aim is to analyze current research and emphasize the crucial role of prioritizing sleep quality in maintaining both cardiovascular health and quality of life.
