Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the level of sleep quality and functionality in physical therapy students from the perspective of the International Classification of Functioning. Methods: This is a descriptive, quantitative study approved by the CEP/UESPI. A questionnaire developed by the researchers was used to trace the sociodemographic profile, as well as the validated questionnaire "Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index" to assess the sleep quality of physical therapy students. Regarding the statistical analysis, a confidence interval of 95% was considered and a significance value of p<0.05. Results: 55.89% of the students had poor sleep quality, 23.53% had sleep disturbance, and 20.58% had good sleep quality. Analyzing the sleep data, they present the following median: at bedtime 23:00, latency of 20 minutes to fall asleep, they wake up at 06:00 and sleep 6 hours a night. A predominance of females was identified, with 69.12% and 30.88% for males. The age range ranged from 18 to 32 years, with a mean age of 21.64 (SD+- 2.29) years. Regarding functionality, the components of body functions, environmental factors and activity and participation are altered, including b1341 (sleep functions), b1343 (sleep quality), e2250 (temperature), d230 (performing the daily routine). Conclusion: Physical therapy students had poor sleep quality and changes in sleep functionality within the domains of body functions, environmental factors, and activity and participation.
