BACKGROUND: Hypertension is one of the most common diseases around the world, which is the most risk factor related to cardiovascular disease. The quality of life of hypertensive patients is influenced by various factors, namely age, sex, educational background, ethnicity and nutritional status. Another factor that is also important is the quality of sleep.AIM: We aimed the assessment of sleep quality using a PSQI questionnaire, and quality of life assessment with the SF-36 questionnaire.METHODS: This study was a cross-sectional study of 45 respondents at the H. Adam Malik Central General Hospital in Medan in 2018. Assessment of sleep quality was performed through the PSQI questionnaire (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), and quality of life assessment was carried out with the SF-36 questionnaire.RESULTS: The prevalence of impaired sleep quality in hypertensive patients was 35.6%. Most patients have a good quality of life, with 71.1%. In this study, sleep quality was found to be related to the quality of life (p = 0.037). Furthermore, variables related to sleep quality were sex (gender) (p = 0.003) and education (p = 0.005). In multivariate analysis, the quality of life is predominantly influenced by sleep quality (p = 0.025).CONCLUSION: The quality of life of hypertensive patients is influenced by the quality of sleep.
Mariani et al. (Sun,) conducted a cross-sectional in Hypertension (n=45). Sleep quality (PSQI) was evaluated on Quality of life (SF-36) (OR 4.800, 95% CI 1.214-18.971, p=0.025). Sleep quality was significantly associated with quality of life in hypertensive patients, acting as the dominant influencing factor (OR 4.800).
