Özet
Sleep related factors may affect compliance of tobacco smokers to a cessation program. This study was designed to assess sleep quality among individuals who were at least 1 year smoking free versus individuals who failed to quit smoking. Material and Method In total, 682 individuals who were on a smoking cessation program between March 2004 and February 2011 were examined for suitability and invited by phone call for this cross-sectional study. Of those, 106 patients (Male/Female, 67/39) agreed to participate and included to the final analysis. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index scores, respiratory function test results, and carbon monoxide measurements were compared between quitters (n=42) and non-quitters (n=64). Results Based on Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index scores, the rate of good sleepers was 23.8% in quitters and 7.8% in non-quitters (p<0.01). This difference was independent of body weight change. In fact, weight gain more than 10% of the initial body weight was present in 52% of quitters versus 8% of non-quitters (p<0.01). Both study groups were comparable in terms of respiratory function tests. Conclusion Subjective sleep quality was better in quitters when compared to the individuals who failed to quit smoking on a smoking cessation program. Improvement of sleep quality may be used as an additional motivation issue in subjects who are willing to stop smoking.
