ASSOCIATED FACTORS AND MORE FREQUENT SLEEP DISORDERS IN UNIVERSITY STUDENTS: INTEGRATIVE REVIEW
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##
Abstract
Introduction: Sleep disorders affect quality of life on three levels, short, medium and long term. University students are groups prone to changes in sleep quality, as they live with sleep deprivation, among other factors such as anxiety, stress, excessive use of social networks, cell phones and television. The importance of sleep for undergraduates becomes evident in the face of the consequences that poor sleep quality can cause, in addition to allowing professionals in the areas of education and health to create programs that promote and encourage routines with beneficial consequences for students. Objectives: To review the literature on the most frequent sleep disorders in university students and the factors associated with sleep. Methods: This study is a systematic review. The search was performed in December 2021, in the electronic journals PubMed and CAPES journals. The time frame comprised the period from 2017 to 2021. In the end, 20 articles were selected to compose this review. Results: Regarding the main sleep disorders of undergraduates, the main outcomes found in the studies were insufficient sleep, long latency, nocturnal awakenings, excessive daytime sleepiness, insomnia and delayed sleep-wake phase disorder. Factors that are modifiable and non-modifiable for the occurrence of sleep disorders, as well as protective factors that can mitigate the occurrence of sleep disorders. Conclusions: The number of articles included in the review showed that over the five years the interest in researching the subject has been increasing. Even so, there is still a need for more effort from researchers to understand which factors are associated with reduced hours of sleep and how society and universities contribute to this practice of increasing waking hours and reducing sleep hours.
