Description:

Objectives.

The aim of this observational study was to examine sleep obtained between consecutive night shifts from shift workers in their natural environment. The goal was to identify the various sleep strategies and the timing, duration, regularity, and quality of sleep associated with the strategies.

Methods.

Participants (N = 33, 23 women, aged 40 ± 15 y) reported their sleep information in daily diaries over 2 weeks while working at least one series of consecutive night shifts. Sleep timing, duration, quality, and regularity were calculated for each sleep episode between consecutive night shifts.

Results.

Based on the reported sleep behavior, shift workers were categorized as either morning, delayed, split- or mixed sleepers. We found significant differences between the groups in timing of sleep, feeling refreshed, and regularity of sleep between consecutive night shifts, whereas duration and subjective soundness of sleep did not show significant differences.

Conclusions.

In this sample, four sleep strategies were observed between consecutive night shifts in actual shift workers. These observations may help design future interventions to improve sleep that are individualized to the worker.
