Sažetak
Parkinson's disease (PD) patients can experience a number of sleep disorders, including insomnia, parasomnias and daytime somnolence. Sleep disorders in the PD patients represent a public health problem, and epidemiological data in our locality have been incomplete. The purpose of this study was to investigate the sleep disorders in the PD patients and determine whether there are differences in sleep disorders considering to gender, age, level of education and self-care. In current study was analyzed data on 80 participants (average age was 72±7 years) which included 40 PD patients (14 women and 26 man) and 40 examinees (14 women and 26 man) in the control group. A Parkinson’s disease sleep scale was used for assessing the sleep disorders. Differences between variables were tested with Mann-Whitney U test. The level of significance was set to P<0.05. The PD patients are significantly more dissatisfied with sleeping than participants in control group (P<0.001). Significantly dissatisfied with the quality of sleeping are in the PD patients who are dependent on the help of others (P=0.046). In the PD patients there are no significant difference in the evaluation of sleep disorders by gender, age and level of education. Results suggest a higher incidence of sleep disorders in the PD patients. There are significantly more dissatisfied with the quality of sleep in the PD patients which largely or completely dependent on the help of others. Results could help in defining sleeping problems in the PD patients and suggest that we need an interdisciplinary approach to working with them.
