Study Investigates Link Between COVID, Mental Health and Insomnia

PsyPost reports that a new study by Phenikaa University in Vietnam has highlighted one of the more common and lingering symptoms of COVID-19: insomnia. As a sleep researcher, I received many questions and complaints from relatives, friends, and colleagues about their sleep disturbances after recovering from Covid-19, Dr Huong T. X. Hoang, Lead author of the article published in 'Frontiers in Public Health,' via PsyPost. I found that the majority of papers focused on hospitalized patients. The environment of their treatment and quarantine would differ greatly from those with milder symptoms, Dr Huong T. X. Hoang, Lead author of the article published in 'Frontiers in Public Health,' via PsyPost. Patients were asked to compare the quality and length of their sleep, as well as how easy it was for them to fall asleep, before and after they contracted COVID. Patients were asked to compare the quality and length of their sleep, as well as how easy it was for them to fall asleep, before and after they contracted COVID. Of the 1,056 people surveyed, over 76.1% of participants said they experienced insomnia. 22.8% of those surveyed reported experiencing severe insomnia. The study found that two groups experienced a statistically significant increased rate of insomnia, including those with depressive or anxious symptoms. The authors of the study note that further investigation of the connection between COVID, mental health problems and insomnia is needed. Since this is a cross-sectional study, the relationship of anxiety and depression with insomnia cannot be fully investigated, Dr Huong T. X. Hoang, Lead author of the article published in 'Frontiers in Public Health,' via PsyPost. In addition, collecting data online and a convenience sampling method can cause recall bias and selection bias. , Dr Huong T. X.
