ABSTRACT

[Abstract] Objective To investigate the prevalence of sleep disorders in patients with bronchiectasis and their correlation with anxiety and depression.
Methods A total of 135 patients with bronchiectasis admitted to Xiaogan Central Hospital from August 2022 to August 2025 were selected as the study subjects. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS) were used to evaluate sleep disorders and anxiety-depression levels. General patient data were collected. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to identify independent factors influencing sleep disorders in patients with bronchiectasis, while Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the relationship between sleep disorders and anxiety-depression.
Results Based on the PSQI scores, the 135 patients were divided into a sleep disorder group (n=75) and a non-sleep disorder group (n=60). Patients in the sleep disorder group had significantly higher scores in all PSQI dimensions compared to those in the non-sleep disorder group (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that hemoptysis, sputum culture results, PO2 levels, SAS scores, and SDS scores were independent factors influencing sleep disorders in patients with bronchiectasis (P<0.05). Additionally, a significant positive correlation was found between patients' total PSQI scores and their SAS and SDS scores (P<0.001).
Conclusion  s There is a significant positive correlation between sleep disorders and anxiety-depression in patients with bronchiectasis. Clinical attention should be given to psychological interventions to improve sleep quality.
