Abstract

One of the main contributors to mental and physical disorders is sleep deprivation. The objective of the current study was to identify sleep irregularities and sleep deprivation in healthy human subjects in Chhattisgarh's south-eastern region. 169 voluntary volunteers between the ages of 6 and 80 who were randomly chosen and appeared healthy took part in the study. The investigation was carried out with participants living in freedom. A self-made questionnaire called the SWRTQ was used to calculate sleep deprivation and irregular sleep patterns, as well as a questionnaire for biographical information and the Horne and Östberg chronotype. SPSS was used to analyze the data (10.0). Where appropriate, statistical tests like correlation and ANOVA were used. Morning type personality made up 64.10 percent of participants, followed by Intermediate type (27.35%), and Evening type (8.55%). The respondents slept noticeably more quickly on workdays and noticeably less quickly on free days). The study subjects' range of wake times (between 4:00 and 11:00 clock hours). According to this graph, the individuals woke up noticeably earlier on workdays and noticeably later on free days. 42.85 of the participants in the survey claimed to regularly lack sleep. Each study participant endured a little more than an hour of sleep deprivation. The study participants did not compensate for the daily small accumulation of sleep loss that occurs when on vacation. It is yet unknown whether mild sleep deprivation is harmful to one's health. The SWRTQ Questions were found to be helpful for identifying sleep deprivation and researching abnormal sleep patterns in human subjects, according to the study. The short and easy test can detect chronic sleep deprivation and irregularity. It is perfect for getting large samples because the questionnaire is so simple.
