Abstract Background: Quality sleep is crucial for physical, mental well-being and for academic performance. First-year MBBS students often face unique challenges such as demanding curricula, high stress levels, which can significantly affect their sleep patterns. This study aims to assess the quality of sleep among first-year MBBS students.
Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 130 first-year MBBS students. Sleep quality is assessed by using a self-report questionnaire, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI).
Results: The results revealed that a significant proportion of first-year MBBS students experienced poor sleep quality, as indicated by elevated PSQI scores. Out of the 130 students, 58 were poor sleepers (44.65%) with prevalence among male and female as 20 (40%) and 38 (47.5%) respectively. Interestingly, gender differences were observed, with female students reporting more sleep problems than their male counterparts.
Conclusion: Sleep quality was significantly higher among males as compared to females among first-year MBBS students and there was no difference among hostelers and day scholars.
Keywords Keywords: Sleep quality, first-year MBBS students, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, well-being.
