| Summary: | Abstract Background: The quality and quantity of sleep can affect blood glucose levels, so it is at risk of hyperglycemia. Hyperglycemia in women childbearing age can affect the cycle of menstruation and fertility. Based on previous research shows that more than half of students have poor sleep quality and found an increase in blood glucose levels in students who sleep less than 7 hours. This study aims to analyze the relationship between quality and quantity of sleep with blood glucose levels in women of childbearing age. Methods: This research method was observational analytic with cross sectional design. The number of samples was 43 students with a purposive sampling technique. The independent variable is the quality and quantity of sleep measured using the PSQI questionnaire, while the dependent variable is the blood glucose level which is checked during fasting for at least 8 hours. Analysis using the spearman rho statistical test. Results: The results showed that 27.9% of students had good sleep quality, including 4.6% with low blood glucose levels and 23.3% with normal blood glucose levels. 72.1% of students have poor sleep quality, including 65.1% with normal blood glucose levels and 7% with high blood glucose levels. The results of the analysis between sleep quality with blood glucose levels obtained rs = 0.345 and p value = 0.023, while the quantity of sleep with blood glucose levels obtained rs = 0.359 and p value = 0.018. Conclusions: The quality and quantity of sleep is significantly associated with blood glucose levels. Women childbearing age should maintain quality and quantity of sleep to prevent increased blood glucose levels. Health workers need to pay attention to the quality and quantity of patient’s sleep especially in women childbearing age. |
