Abstract:

Methods: The Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) and coping style questionnaire (CSQ) were used to assess 120 men with high normal blood pressure in community. With PSQI>7 scores as criterion for judging sleep quality disorders, the subjects were divided into sleep disorder group (n=51) and normal sleep group (n=69), and sleep disorder group received psychological intervention. Results: Sleep disorders existed in 42.5% male population with high normal blood pressure. Compared with normal sleep group, there was significant increase in PSQI [(6.43±2.59)scores vs. (8.33±3.14)scores] and diastolic blood pressure [(81.00±8.91) mmHg vs. (88.00±5.69) mmHg] and significant decrease in factor scores of “problem solving” [(0.76±0.21) scores vs. (0.61±0.18) scores] and “asking for help” [(0.52±0.26) scores vs. (0.41±0.11) scores] in sleep disorder group, P<0.05 all; Compared with before intervention there were significant increase in scores of “problem solving” [(0.61±0.18) scores vs. (0.71±0.12) scores]and “asking for help” [(0.41±0.11) scores vs. ( 0.51±0.13) scores]and significant decrease in PSQI score [(8.33±3.14) scores vs. (7.41±2.37) scores] and diastolic blood pressure [(88±5.69)mmHg vs. (80± 4.17)mmHg] after psychological intervention 12 weeks in sleep disorder group, P<0.05 all.
