Impact of perceived fatigue on sleep quality among critical care nurses in a selected hospital.
Article in Journal of education and health promotion, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundFatigue and tiredness significantly affect sleep duration and timing, especially in critical care nurses working consecutive shifts without adequate rest. Symptoms such as lethargy, tiredness, and a constant need for sleep are commonly linked to fatigue and insufficient sleep, which can compromise nurse performance and patient care. This study aimed to evaluate fatigue and sleep quality among critical care nurses, explore their correlation, and examine associations with demographic factors. MATERIALS AND
methodsA quantitative, nonexperimental descriptive correlational study was conducted among 100 critical care nurses at SRM Medical College Hospital and Research Centre from January to March 2023. Data were collected using the Fatigue Assessment Scale and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Statistical analysis, including Chi-square tests, was performed using SPSS version 16, with significance set at
resultsThe analysis revealed no significant associations between most demographic factors and fatigue or sleep quality. However, age showed a statistically significant correlation with both fatigue and sleep quality (χ² = 16.298,
conclusionThis study highlights the link between increased perceived fatigue and sleep disturbances among critical care nurses. Targeted interventions to address fatigue and enhance sleep quality are crucial to improve nurse well-being and patient care outcomes. These findings underscore the importance of addressing occupational fatigue in critical care settings.
