- Abstract
Since sleeping has a vital role in learning and practice, as well as physical health. Having a good sleep quality helps maintain executive cognitive functions, sensorimotor integration, concentration, and memory processing. Nevertheless the COVID-19 pandemic leads to make any changes in sleep schedule in undergraduate and clerkship medical student that effected the quality of sleep. The study aims to identify the quality of sleep of undergraduate and clerkship students to create proper and effective strategies to build good quality of sleep among medical students during the COVID-19 pandemic. This cross-sectional study was conducted using an online questionnaire. The sleep quality was measured with Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) test. The subjects of this study were 164 medical students that divided into two groups, the first group consist of 94 final year undergraduate students and the second group consist of 70 final year clerkship students. This study shown that 32% undergraduate students were poor sleepers with the average PSQI score was 4,85±2,23. However, in clerkship students there were 50% students who are poor sleepers and the average PSQI score was 5,87±2,62. The analysis showed significantly statistical differentiation between them (p=0.019). In conclusion, our study suggest that the quality of sleep on clerkship students is slightly worse than undergraduate among the medical students. Awareness and observation should be needed to determine the situation in medical students.
