Sleep Detriments Associated With Quick Returns in Rotating Shift Work
Poor Sleep Linked to Short Rest Periods Between Rotating Work Shifts
AI simplified
Abstract
Quick returns (QRs) resulted in an average sleep duration of 5.6 hours.
- QRs were associated with short sleep duration compared to other shift transitions.
- Sleep onset latency was slightly prolonged during QRs.
- The main sleep period ended more abruptly after QRs.
- Increased sleepiness was reported following QRs.
- Higher levels of perceived stress on the subsequent shift were noted after QRs.
