  Objetivo: determinar si existe relación entre el estrés percibido y la calidad de sueño en las enfermeras de los turnos nocturno y rotativo de la empresa social del Estado Hospital San Rafael de Facatativá. Metodología: estudio transversal con alcance correlacional donde se evaluó el estrés percibido y la calidad de sueño por medio de la escala de estrés percibido - versión 14 y el índice de calidad de sueño de Pittsburg -versión colombiana, respectivamente, en una muestra de 98 enfermeras que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión. Resultados: se presentó una prevalencia del 72,45 % de estrés percibido y del 79,59 % de mala calidad de sueño; entre estas dos variables se halló una correlación baja (r = 0,258; p = 0,010). Se puede asegurar con un 95 % de confianza que mientras una variable aumenta, la otra también lo hace, queriendo decir que a mayor puntaje en la escala de estrés percibido, mayor puntaje en el índice de calidad de sueño de Pittsburgh, lo que sugiere que el nivel de estrés es un factor que tiene relación directamente proporcional con el sueño, es decir, entre mayor estrés, peor calidad de sueño. Conclusiones: se concluye que sí existe relación entre el estrés percibido y la calidad de sueño, lo cual evidencia, por un lado, que en las enfermeras a mayor estrés, peor calidad de sueño, y por otro, que a peor calidad de sueño, mayor estrés.

  Introduction: Stress and poor quality of sleep are companions to the workday and life in general, stress being a modifier of the quantity and quality of sleep and, in turn, the quality of sleep modulating levels of stress. Objective: To determine the relationship between perceived stress and quality of sleep in nurses in the night and rotating shifts of the E.S.E. San Rafael de Facatativá Hospital. Methodology: Study with quantitative approach, cross-sectional and correlational scope where the perceived stress was assessed through the Perceived Stress Scale, Version 14 (EEP-14) and sleep quality using the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index, Version Colombian (ICSP-VC) in a sample of 98 nurses who met the inclusion criteria. Results: A prevalence of 72.45% of perceived stress and 79.59% of poor sleep quality was evidenced. Regarding the relationship between variables, it was found that they have a significant correlation (r = 0.258; p = 0.010) and can be assured with 95% confidence, that while one variable increases, the other also does, that is, The more score on the perceived stress scale which indicates higher stress, the higher the Pittsburgh sleep quality index, indicating worse quality. Conclusions: It is concluded that the perceived stress and the quality of sleep are factors that have a bidirectional relationship, pointing out that, the greater the stress in the nurses, the worse the quality of sleep, as well as the worse the quality of sleep, the greater the stress.

  Objective: To determine if there is a relationship between perceived stress and sleep quality in nurses in the night and rotating shifts of the social enterprise of the State Hospital San Rafael of Facatativá. Methodology: cross-sectional study with a correlational scope where the perceived stress was assessed through the Perceived Stress Scale, Version 14, and sleep quality using the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index, Colombian Version, in a sample of 98 nurses who met the inclusion criteria. Results: a prevalence of 72.45% of perceived stress and 79.59% of poor sleep quality were perceived; there was a low correlation between these two variables (r= 0.258; p=0.010). It can be ensured with 95% of confidence that when one variable increases, the other one does the same; this means that higher stress level in the perceived stress scale implies a higher score in the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, which suggests that stress level is a factor that has direct proportionality with sleep; so, higher stress level is equal to worse sleep quality. Conclusions: It is concluded that there is a relationship between perceived stress and sleep quality, showing that, the greater the stress in the nurses, the worse the quality of sleep, and conversely, the worse the quality of sleep, the greater the stress.
