Abstract

The frequency of discrete sleep symptoms significantly differed with work shifts (p<0.001).

Nurses reported the worst sleep quality and daytime fatigue after working night shifts.
Those in irregular shift systems experienced worse sleep quality compared to those in regular and flexible systems (p<0.001).
The Hungarian version of the Bergen Shift Work Sleep Questionnaire effectively assesses sleep disorders related to shift work.

INTRODUCTION: Sleep disorders among shift workers are common problems due to the disturbed circadian rhythm. The Bergen Shift Work Sleep Questionnaire assesses discrete sleep problems related to work shifts (day, evening and night shifts) and rest days.

AIM: The aim of the study was to develop the Hungarian version of this questionnaire and to compare the sleep quality of nurses in different work schedules.

METHOD: 326 nurses working in shifts filled in the questionnaire. The authors made convergent and discriminant validation of the questionnaire with the Athens Insomnia Scale and the Perceived Stress Questionnaire.

RESULTS: The questionnaire based on psychometric characteristics was suitable to assess sleep disorders associated with shift work in a Hungarian sample. The frequency of discrete symptoms significantly (p<0.001) differed with the shifts. Nurses experienced the worst sleep quality and daytime fatigue after the night shift. Nurses working in irregular shift system had worse sleep quality than nurses working in regular and flexible shift system (p<0.001).

CONCLUSIONS: The sleep disorder of nurses working in shifts should be assessed with the Hungarian version of the Bergen Shift Work Sleep Questionnaire on a nationally representative sample, and the least burdensome shift system could be established.
