Relationships between the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and vertigo outcome.
Neurological Research 2023 Februrary 27
OBJECTIVE: This retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the association of sleep characteristics measured by the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) with the vertigo outcome in vertiginous patients with comorbid cardiometabolic diseases.
METHODS: Four hundred and thirteen patients with comorbid cardiometabolic diseases who consecutively visiting vertigo and dizziness clinic were enrolled between October 2018 and January 2020 in a tertiary teaching medical center. Regression analyses and stratified analyses were used to explore the relationship between PSQI and vertigo outcome, which was measured by the visual analogue scale (VAS) score.
RESULTS: In the study sample, 73.8% (305/413) were defined as 'poor sleep' (PSQI>5). Participants with better recovery tended to have better baseline PSQI global score, PSQI sleep quality, PSQI sleep onset latency, PSQI daytime dysfunction, less severe baseline vertigo symptoms indicated by VAS, Vertigo Symptom Scale (VSS) and Dizziness Handicap Inventory (DHI) scores. Moreover, baseline PSQI global score and PSQI daytime dysfunction score were independently associated with the vertigo VAS scores at the last follow-up.
CONCLUSION: The present results clearly indicated that poor sleep is common and inversely associated with vertigo outcome in vertiginous patients with co-morbid cardiometabolic diseases. Therefore, sleep deserves greater attention in the total medical care in specific subgroup of vertiginous patients.
