Sleep quality and efficiency in adults with post-acute sequelae of COVID-19.

ABSTRACT:

Study objectives

Sleep disruptions are associated with adverse mental and physical health outcomes. Individuals with post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) commonly report worsened sleep. This study examined sleep quality and efficiency and their associations with neuropsychiatric symptoms and fatigue in non-hospitalized individuals with PASC.

Methods

Sixty-one participants (73.8 percent female; - _age = 45.4) who reported being infected with COVID-19 ≥ 2 months before enrollment, non-hospitalized, and experiencing ≥3 symptoms since infection were eligible. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was used to measure self-reported sleep quality, and the Fitbit Charge-4 to assess sleep efficiency. Participants completed the Beck Anxiety Index, Beck Depression Index
