Key Points

To evaluate differences in fatigue, sleep satisfaction, and sleep quality across different age groups of nurses working shift rotations.
Conducted a descriptive correlational survey among shift-working nurses (N=1190) across Japan from July 2023 to August 2023.
Assessed self-reported fatigue levels, daily sleep satisfaction, and sleep quality using the Japanese version of the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI-J).
Older nurses exhibited significantly greater regular daytime fatigue and night shift fatigue alongside shorter sleep duration than younger nurses.
Suboptimal sleep quality was common across the entire cohort, with 60% of shift-working nurses reporting poor sleep quality.
