BACKGROUND: Disturbed sleep and its impact on quality of life (QoL) are underrecognized in myasthenia gravis (MG).
AIMS: To evaluate the quality of sleep in MG using standard sleep questionnaires and assess factors that determine sleep.
SETTINGS AND DESIGN: Prospective, cross-sectional, hospital-based study.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: Fifty patients on stable drug therapy for at least 1 month and age- and gender-matched controls were assessed using standard sleep questionnaires [Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and NIMHANS Comprehensive Sleep Disorders Questionnaire (NCSDQ)].
RESULTS: Myasthenia Gravis Foundation of America (MGFA) grade was I, IIA, IIB, IIIA, IIIB, and IVA in 11, 19, 3, 10, 6, and 1 respectively. The mean PSQI and ESS scores were similar in patients and controls. Patients with abnormal ESS (>10) were older and had greater neck circumference (P = 0.018 and <0.001). Body mass index was greater in patients with PSQI > 5 (P < 0.05). Age, gender, and clinical severity did not affect PSQI. Compared with ESS and PSQI, NCSDQ showed higher frequency of disturbed sleep, snoring, early morning headache, difficulty in initiation, and maintenance of sleep in MG, although the differences between patients and controls were not significant. No correlation was found between QoL and ESS or PSQI.
CONCLUSION: Patients of MG with stable clinical course with adequate treatment have sleep quality comparable with healthy controls. Longitudinal assessment of sleep quality at multiple time points throughout the disease course and correlating with cross-sectional disease severity may further delineate the impact of disease on sleep and QoL.
