Abstract: Background: Poor sleep quality is prevalent among adults with diabetes, impacting their physical, psychological, and functional well-being. Our goals were to assess the prevalence of poor sleep quality and its association with glycemic control and to identify predictors of poor sleep quality among adults with diabetes mellitus. Methods: This cross-sectional study took place at a tertiary hospital, from October 2022 to March 2023, including 192 adults with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. We collected demographic and clinical data and utilized the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scale to evaluate sleep quality. Results: A total of 65.9% of the participants experienced poor sleep quality (PSQI score > 5), with an average global sleep quality score of 7.36 ± 3.53 for all patients. Poor sleep quality was higher among older and married patients, those with lower education levels, housewives, and those with type 2 diabetes mellitus and associated comorbidities, such as hypertension and dyslipidemia. None of these factors were significantly associated with sleep quality in a multiple linear regression analysis. The mean glycated hemoglobin was 8.68 ± 1.91% and did not correlate with the overall PSQI score and its components. Conclusions: This study revealed a notably high prevalence of poor sleep quality among Saudi adults with diabetes, potentially associated with specific sociodemographic and clinical factors. These findings emphasize the importance of integrating sleep quality education into diabetes management strategies.
