摘要

The purpose of this study was to investigate the physical fitness and sleep quality in nurses with different body mass index (BMI). Two hundred and twenty seven participants were assigned to three groups: underweight (BMI≦18.5, n=78人), standard weight (BMI 18.5~23.9, n=80) and overweight (BMI≧24, n=69人). The physical fitness test and sleep quality questionnaire were performed. The physical fitness test items included sit and reach, grip strength, 1 min sit-ups, and modified Harvard step test (MHST). Sleep quality was assessed by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Data were analyzed by a statistical software package (SPSS, version 18.0 for windows) were expressed as the mean ± SD, and were considered to be significant if the p value was ＜.05. The results showed that the cardiopulmonary function was significantly in different BMI groups. The mean PSQI score of all participants were 6.3±3.3, and 9.8±2.8 in overweight groups. In overweight subjects, the percentage of PSQI≦5 was only 4.3% and PSQI＞5 was 95.7%. We concluded that the nurses have worse sleep quality and overweight might effect on cardiopulmonary and sleep quality. We suggested that nurses should emphasis on personal weight control and do exercise regularly, in order to promote personal healthy life.
