Background: The aim of the study was to assess the determinants of the sleep disorders that occur among nurses working in a shift system by assessing the influence of sociodemographic factors, the impact of shift work, and the occurrence of occupational burnout. Methods: The study included 300 nurses who work shifts in the Silesian Region (Poland). The research was conducted using standardized research tools: the Karolinska Sleepiness Scale (KSS), the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), the Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS), and the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI). Results: Among the sociodemographic factors, in the KSS analysis, sleep disorders were most common in men (CI: 0.038; p < 0.001), in divorced individuals (CI: 1.436; p = 0.045), and in individuals who were overweight (CI: 1.927; p = 0.026). Multiple linear regression showed that sleep disorders (p < 0.001) were an independent predictor of MBI among nurses who worked shifts. Conclusions: Sleep disturbances affect the burnout of nurses who work shifts. |
