Keywords:
Elderly, Sleeping Problems, Sleep state misperceptionAbstract
This cross-sectional descriptive study aimed to investigate the proportions and factors that may be associated with sleep state misperception in the elderly. A total of 124 patients, aged 60 years and older, who visited the outpatient clinic at Nam Phong Hospital were included in the study. Data was collected using questionnaire interview. Data were examined using descriptive statistics, including frequency, percentage, and mean, as well as inferential statistics such as the Odd ratio (OR) and 95% Confidence interval (CI).
The study findings showed that 21 elderly individuals experienced sleep state misperception (16.9%, 95%CI 0.108-0.247). Individuals with a spouse are significantly associated with sleep state misperception (adjusted OR = 4.322, 95%CI = 1.008-18.536) at a p-value less than 0.05.
