The effect of respiratory problems and nutritional characteristics of children on sleep quality and influencing factors: A descriptive study

Öz

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of respiratory problems and nutritional characteristics on sleep quality in children and the factors related to this effect. This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted in a hospital between October 2023 and July 2024. Data were collected using child information form and Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire: Sleep-disordered breathing subscale. Data were analyzed by computer with 95% confidence interval. A total of 101 children with an average age of 7.3 years and their mothers participated in the study. The mean sleep quality scale score was 0.22 points. The quality of sleep was influenced by nutrition, especially the number and timing of snacks, daytime sleep duration, number of nighttime waking, characteristics of the sleep environment, presence of respiratory disorders or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and sleep disorder diagnosed by polysomnography. The health of their mothers was also found to be an important factor. In order for children to have a healthy growth and development period, their sleep needs should be met in a healthy way. It is important to ensure sleep and nutritional regularity for sleep quality. It was observed that individual and family-based interventions are necessary for a healthy sleep pattern.

Çocukların solunum problemlerinin ve beslenme özelliklerinin uyku kalitesi üzerindeki etkisi ve etkileyen faktörler: Tanımlayıcı bir çalışma

Öz

Solunum ve beslenme sorunları çocuklarda uyku kalitesini etkileyen faktörlerden biridir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, çocuklarda solunum problemleri ve beslenme özelliklerinin uyku kalitesi üzerine etkisini ve bu etkiyle ilişkili faktörleri belirlemektir. Tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipteki bu çalışma Ekim 2023-Temmuz 2024 tarihleri arasında bir hastanede yürütülmüştür. Veriler çocuk bilgi formu ve Pediatrik Uyku Anketi kullanılarak toplanmıştır: Uykuda solunum bozuklukları alt ölçeği. Veriler bilgisayar ortamında %95 güven aralığında analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmaya yaş ortalaması 7,3 yıl olan toplam 101 çocuk ve anneleri katılmıştır. Ortalama uyku kalitesi ölçeği puanı 0,22 idi. Uyku kalitesi beslenmeden, özellikle ara öğün sayısı ve zamanlamasından, gündüz uyku süresinden, gece uyanma sayısından, uyku ortamının özelliklerinden, solunum bozuklukları veya dikkat eksikliği hiperaktivite bozukluğu varlığından ve polisomnografi ile teşhis edilen uyku bozukluğundan etkilenmiştir. Annelerinin sağlığı da önemli bir faktör olarak bulunmuştur. Çocukların sağlıklı bir büyüme ve gelişme dönemi geçirebilmeleri için uyku ihtiyaçlarının sağlıklı bir şekilde karşılanması gerekmektedir. Uyku kalitesi için uyku ve beslenme düzeninin sağlanması önemlidir. Sağlıklı bir uyku düzeni için bireysel ve aile temelli müdahalelerin gerekli olduğu görülmüştür.
