ALVES DE LIMA, Aílton et al. Sleep quality in hospitalized children with syndrome of the oral respirator. av.enferm. [online]. 2019, vol.37, n.2, pp.149-157. Epub 13-Sep-2019. ISSN 0121-4500. https://doi.org/10.15446/av.enferm.v37n2.74705.
Objective:
to analyze the sleep quality in hospitalized children with syndrome of the oral respirator.
Method:
descriptive research with analytical component and quantitative approach, with 80 children in the age group between 5 to 12 years, being in a hospital in the northeast of Brazil. An interview was conducted with parents or guardians of children and the Pittsburgh Index of Sleep Quality questionnaire was applied.
Results:
30 % of children with oral respirators presented very good sleep quality and 43.8 %, good. The components that most interfered in the good sleep quality were: sleep quality (p < 0.001), latency (p < 0.000) and daytime dysfunction (p < 0.000), as well as duration of sleep, habitual efficiency of sleep and use of medication for sleep, with p-value without significance.
Conclusion:
children with oral respirators had good sleep quality according to the perceptions of parents or caregivers.
