Objective: To investigate the sleep quality of medical staff in response to the outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Wuhan, Hubei Methods: We did a sleep quality survey with Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and questionnaire in frontline medical staff who were working in the period of COVID-19 outbreak, and the results were compared with that of non-medical staff Results: The total number of people included in this study was 362, of which 218 were in the first-line medical staff group, 38 were in the COVID-19 diagnosed medical staff group;106 were in the non-medical staff group;and there was no significant difference in genders and ages among the three groups During the outbreak of COVID-19, sleep disturbance symptoms (PSQI7 points) were presented with some degree in these groups The proportions of sleep disturbance in the frontline medical staff group and COVID-19 diagnosed medical staff group were significantly higher than that of non-medical staff (P0 001);The proportion of severe sleep disturbance (PSQI10) in the first-line medical staff group and COVID-19 diagnosed medical staff group were also significantly higher than that of non-medical staff (P0 001) Compared with non-medical staff, frontline medical staff had statistical differences in sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep time and daytime dysfunction (P0 01);The main causes of sleep disorders in first-line medical staff were significantly related to high workload and fear of infection Conclusions: The outbreak of COVID-19 increases the incidence and severity of sleep disorders among frontline medical staff in Wuhan, which is related to high workload and fear of infection © 2020, Editorial Board of Medical Journal of Wuhan University All right reserved
