<h3>Objectives</h3> The purpose of this study was to use objective registry data prospectively investigate the effects quick returns (QR, <11 hours rest between shifts) and night shifts on sick leave. <h3>Methods</h3> A total 1538 nurses (response rate =41.5%) answered questionnaires demographics personality provided consent link information shift work leave from employers9 records. multilevel negative binomial model used predictive effect exposure QR every month for 1 year, following...
Objective: We aimed to compared sleep characteristics associated with quick returns (QRs, <11 hours between shift intervals) those other common transitions. Methods: Sixty-seven nurses completed a 2-week work and diary (94.0% female, mean age 47.7 years). A multilevel fixed effects model was used examine the in QRs two consecutive night shifts, evening day respectively. Results: None of transitions studied encumbered as many detriments QRs, which included short duration (5.6 hours), slightly...
Prior research shows that work on board vessels of the Royal Norwegian Navy (RNoN) is associated with noise exposure levels above recommended standards. Further, has been found to impair cognitive performance in environmental, occupational, and experimental settings, although prior naval maritime settings sparse. The aim this study was evaluate after among personnel working RNoN. Altogether 87 (80 men, 7 women; 31 ± 9 years) from 24 RNoN were included. Noise recorded by personal dosimeters...
Objective: This randomized clinical trial was performed to compare the effect of a new multidisciplinary intervention (MI) programme brief (BI) on return work (RTW), fully and partly, at 12-month 24-month follow-up in patients long-term sick leave due musculoskeletal pain. Methods: Patients (n = 284, mean age 41.3 years, 53.9 % women) who were sick-listed with pain referred specialist clinic physical rehabilitation MI 141) or BI 143). The included use visual educational tool, which...
Organisation of working hour schedules in the Northern European countries are rather similar. EU obliged to adopt national legislation regarding duration weekly hours and rest periods. Yet, characteristics likely differ with respect starting times depending e.g. on culture tradition. very little is known about potential differences between shifts across among nursing personel. This knowledge relevant, since may influence possibly explain some observed studies health safety.The aim study was...
Background: This study aimed to investigate whether different types of changes in the work schedule nurses working rotating shifts during COVID-19 pandemic were associated with sleep duration, quality, and turnover intention. Methods: Cross-sectional questionnaire data from 694 participating SUrvey Shift work, Sleep Health (SUSSH) collected between first second wave Norway. A total 89.9% female, mean age was 44.6 years (SD = 8.6 years). Changes shift related comprised reports more long...

The effects 4-month MT salivary cortisol performance 2 computer-based cognitive tasks were tested military helicopter unit exposed prolonged period high workload.Methods: participants compared wait list group...
Introduction Sleep app use has become widespread in recent years. Still, understanding of characteristics users and the impact sleep usage remains limited. Methods A sample 940 young adults (18–30 years) living UK were recruited from Prolific (online research platform offering researchers access to survey panels) invited participate a on experience with apps. Both non-users invited. The included questions about demographics, morningness (Horne–Östberg Morningness–Eveningness...
In this study we examine sleep during adaptation and readaptation to different shift work schedules in the offshore oil industry. The of 19 workers was assessed daily for 1 week before, period, after 3 schedules: (1) day (14 consecutive days work), (2) night nights (3) swing (first 7 with then work). workers' 84 days. Actigraphy diary estimates applied assessing: work, across 2 weeks, period. Regarding adaptation, efficiency higher when working than first work. Sleep quality better regular...
Many athletes sleep poorly due to stress, travel, and competition anxiety. In the present study, we investigated effects of deprivation on soccer skills (juggling, dribbling, ball control, continuous kicking, 20 40 m sprint, 30 sprint with changes direction). all, 19 male junior players (14-19 years old) were recruited participated in a cross-balanced experimental study comprising two conditions; habitual 24 hours deprivation. both conditions, testing took place between 8 a.m. 10 Order tests...
Shift work disorder (SWD) is highly prevalent among shift-working nurses and has multiple negative health-related effects. There a dearth of insight into career-related decisions made by suffering from SWD, for instance in terms their intention to quit (turnover intention). In this study, we aimed investigate the association between SWD turnover nurses, individual work-related correlates intention.Data were derived ongoing longitudinal cohort study "SUrvey work, Sleep Health (SUSSH)"...
Abstract Study objectives To investigate the effect of a work schedule with abated quick returns (i.e. &gt; 11 hours between two shifts) on insomnia, daytime sleepiness, and work-related fatigue compared to shift maintaining usual number returns. Methods A two-armed cluster randomized controlled trial including 66 units was conducted at university hospital in Norway. Units healthcare workers rotating schedules were randomly assigned (intervention) or continue as (control) for 6 months....
