Abstract: Objective

To investigate the correlation between sleep disorders and depression among the elderly population in a rural area of Yangu county in Shandong Province.

Methods

From August 2014 to November 2014, a cross-sectional survey was conducted in elderly patients aged 65~85 years in Yanlou Town of Yanggu County in Shandong Province. The study population was assessed for sleep impairment using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index Scale (PSQI) and the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) was used to evaluate depression.

Results

1. A total of 145 elderly patients were found to have depression, an incidence of 20.4%. 2. Women and people with low level education were more easily depressed. 3. There was a significant difference in PSQI score between the non-depressed group and the possible or positive depression group (P<0.05). 4. Sleep disorder is a risk factor for depression among the elderly population.

Conclusion

Sleep disorder is a risk factor for depression among the elderly population in a rural area of Shandong Province. We should take active measures to intervene against sleep disorders.

Key words: Rural population, Aged, Depression, Sleep disorders, Pittsburgh sleep quality index, Hamilton depression scale.
