- Abstract
Objective: The relationship between sleep quality and odor in medical faculty students was investigated. Material-Method: Our study was approved by the clinical research ethics committee. In our cross-sectional study, socio-demographic characteristics questionnaire, Pittsburg sleep quality index (PUKI) and odor-sleep questionnaire were used to evaluate the sleep quality of the medical faculty students of our university. Results: Our work; 91 (46.9%) female students and 103 (53.1%) male students were included. The mean age of the students included in the study is 21.91±1.94, the income level of the students is 79 (42.2%) 1000 TL and above, 87 (44.8%) people live in apartments, 149 (76.8%) people smoke and 143 (73.7%) people do not use alcohol. 165 (86.4%) of the participants preferred to sleep in a dark environment. Of the students participating in the study, 160 (82.9%) were noise, 149 (77.2%) light, 145 (75.1%) the temperature level of the environment, 122 (63.2%) were physically in bed. structure, 107 (55.4%) polluted environment and 106 (54.9%) bad smell of the environment affected their sleep quality. 89 (45.9%) people agreed with the relationship between smell and sleep, and 70 (36.1%) people agreed with the relationship between smell and memory. The mean of the total PUKI scale in our study was found to be 12.88±5.60. There was a statistically significant difference between the time to sleep in term I and II students (p=0.040), and it was found that the time to sleep was prolonged in term II students. There was a significant difference in the duration of falling asleep between the students who participated in our study, between the semester II and the third semester students (p=0.017). The sleep quality of the students included in our study during falling asleep was found to be statistically significant (p<0,05). Conclusion: For a quality sleep, it is thought that there may be a connection between the smell and the sleep process.
