Sažetak
Background: This study was carried out to compare the fear levels and sleep problems of nurses working in wards where
patients with COVID-19 are hospitalized and nurses working in wards without COVID-19 patients.
Subjects and methods: This descriptive, cross-sectional research was conducted on 211 nurses using a web-based online survey
in Turkey (including 104 nurses working in wards where patients with COVID-19/107 nurses working in wards where patients
without COVID-19).
Results: When the COVID-19 Fear Scale mean scores of the nurses working in wards where patients with/without COVID-19
were compared, it was determined that the difference between the groups was statistically significant (p<0.05). When the sleep
problems experienced were compared according to the Post-Sleep Inventory, it was determined that the difference between the
groups was not statistically significant (p>0.05). There was a moderately significant and positive correlation between the nurses'
mean scores for the COVID-19 Fear Scale and Post-Sleep Inventory.
Conclusions: It was determined that as the fear levels of nurses increased, they experienced more sleep problems.
