Sleep Quality and Depression in Peritoneal Dialysis Patients

Abstract: Background. Sleep quality (SQ) is a significant problem in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients, yet the underlying factors are not well known. In addition, depression and impaired quality of life (QOL) are main problems in PD patients. We measured the SQ and investigated the effect of depression, QOL, and some other factors on SQ in PD patients. Methods. Data were collected from 124 PD patients (59 male, 65 female) in our center. Demographic data and laboratory values were analyzed. All patients were asked to co… Show more

“…Moreover, both pruritus and depression were the bidirectional factors of sleep quality in this study. Several studies have reported the relationship between depressive symptoms and subsequent development of sleep disturbances (20,21). These findings supported the presumption that sleep distur- Our finding showed the severity of patient-reported pruritus and its relationship with PCS QoL scores.…”

“…33,34 In contrast, two studies in PD patients indicated that age might influence sleep quality. 30,35 The mixed results regarding the effects of age on sleep quality may be attributed to the differences in the study populations and measurement tools. The gold standard for diagnosis of sleep disorders is polysomnography, which many studies fail to employ.…”

“…These findings were supported by previous studies in CKD patients. [30][31][32] Since sleep may influence physical and mental wellbeing, the link between sleep and life quality is an expected finding.…”

“…Guney et al 34 indicated that PCS and MCS scores were inversely correlated with sleep quality (r: À0.41, r: À0.39, p50.001 for PCS and MCS scores, respectively). 34 The positive correlation between sleep and life quality indexes is an expected finding due to possible effects of sleep on physical and mental wellbeing. Reverse causality is also possible with those having physical or mental problems finding it harder to sleep undisturbed.…”
