背景睡眠问题是癌症患者的常见问题。已经开发了多个问卷和单项量表来测量睡眠质量。本研究的目的是测试詹金斯睡眠量表（JSS）与生活质量问卷中的单项睡眠量表进行比较（EORTC QLQ-C30），并探讨睡眠质量与年龄，性别，临床变量，和几个领域的生活quality.MethodsA样本的1216例癌症患者谁是治疗在肿瘤康复诊所进行了检查与JSS，EORTC QLQ-C30和其他几份问卷（t1）。参与者的睡眠质量，然后评估第二次六个月后（t2）。ResultsThe癌症患者报告严重的睡眠问题，与t1平均得分为11.6（JSS）和51（EORTC QLQ-C30睡眠项目）。JSS的可靠性良好（Cronbach α = 0.84）。睡眠问题与性别（女性问题更多），几种癌症治疗方法以及生活质量的所有领域有关。JSS仅略优于EORTC QLQ-C30睡眠项目在检测sleep problems.ConclusionsBecause的高患病率和强关联的所有生活质量的尺寸，睡眠问题应考虑在癌症护理。EORTC QLQ-C30的单项睡眠工具足以进行组水平的调查。
BackgroundSleep problems are frequent in cancer patients. Multiple questionnaires and one-item scales have been developed for measuring sleep quality. The aim of this study was to test the Jenkins Sleep Scale (JSS) in comparison with the one-item sleep scale of the quality of life questionnaire (EORTC QLQ-C30), and to examine the relationship between sleep quality and age, gender, clinical variables, and several domains of quality of life.MethodsA sample of 1216 cancer patients who were treated in an oncological rehabilitation clinic were examined with the JSS, the EORTC QLQ-C30, and several other questionnaires (t1). Participants’ sleep quality was then assessed a second time six months later (t2).ResultsThe cancer patients reported severe sleep problems, with t1 mean scores of 11.6 (JSS) and 51 (EORTC QLQ-C30 Sleep item). The reliability of the JSS was good (Cronbach's alpha = 0.84). Sleep problems were associated with gender (more problems in females), with several cancer treatment methods, and with all domains of quality of life. The JSS performed only marginally better than the EORTC QLQ-C30 Sleep item in detecting sleep problems.ConclusionsBecause of the high prevalence and the strong associations with all quality of life dimensions, sleep problems should be taken into account in cancer care. The one-item sleep instrument of the EORTC QLQ-C30 is sufficient for investigations conducted on a group level.
