The 2019 Coronavirus Disease ( COVID-19 ) pandemic is spreading rapidly around the world
.
In this unprecedented situation, governments around the world have implemented unconventional measures to reduce the spread of infectious diseases and the pressure on the medical system
COVID-19
According to statistics, during the COVID-19 lockdown period, the daily use of electronic devices is increasing throughout the world
.
Prolonged exposure to the backlit screen before sleep will affect the circadian rhythm system, leading to adverse consequences for sleep health
Prolonged exposure to the backlit screen before sleep will affect the circadian rhythm system, leading to adverse consequences for sleep health
2123 Italians (mean age ± standard deviation, 33.
1 ± 11.
6) were longitudinally tested during the third and seventh weeks of confinement
.
The web-based survey evaluated sleep quality and insomnia symptoms through the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Insomnia Severity Index
The results showed that participants who increased their use of electronic devices showed decreased sleep quality, increased insomnia symptoms, reduced sleep time, extended sleep onset latency, and delayed going to bed and waking up
.
In this subgroup, the prevalence of people who sleep poorly and people who report moderate/severe insomnia symptoms increases
Participants who increased the use of electronic devices showed decreased sleep quality, increased insomnia symptoms, reduced sleep time, extended sleep onset latency, and delayed going to bed and waking up
In contrast, respondents who reported reduced screen exposure showed improvement in sleep quality and insomnia symptoms
Interaction of "survey wave" × "screen exposure" between bedtime and wake-up time (hh:mm)
In summary, there is a great relationship between changes in the use of electronic devices at night and the time course of sleep disorders during confinement
.
During the current restrictions imposed by COVID-19, monitoring the potential effects of excessive exposure to backlit screens at night on sleep health is recommended
In summary, there is a great relationship between changes in the use of electronic devices at night and the time course of sleep disorders during confinement
