Abstract

Objective: Analyze some factors related to sleep quality in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. Subjects and methods: Cross-sectional description of patients receiving outpatient treatment for systemic lupus erythematosus at Bach Mai Hospital's outpatient department from October 2022 to the end of August 2023. Results: Poor sleep quality is found in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus with a relatively high rate of 51,3%. Patients aged 55 years and older have a rate of poor sleep quality of up to 75,7%, and in patients of younger ages, this rate is only 43,8%. In the group with secondary education or less, the rate of poor sleep quality is 66.0%. Symptoms of muscle and joint pain and fatigue are risk factors for poor sleep quality in people with lupus with ORs of 2,01 and 14,87 (95%CI). Hypertension is a co-occurring disease that increases the risk of SLE patients having poor sleep quality by 1,10 – 4,57 times. Conclusion: Some sociodemographic factors have shown an association with sleep quality in SLE patients, including age, education level and marital status. The level of disease activity through the SLEDAI scale, some symptoms of pain and fatigue, and hypertension in people with lupus are related to sleep quality.
