[Relationship between sleep and constipation in the elderly Chileans].

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:There is scarce information about constipation in elderly subjects. Among the variety of factors causing constipation, the sleeping hours are a factor usually not taken into account. OBJECTIVES:To determine the association between hours of sleep during the week and weekend, with constipation in older adults. DESIGN:Sleep quality, stool consistency, physical activity (PA) and dietary fiber intake was assessed using various validated surveys in 424 healthy autonomous elderly men and women, living in Santiago, Chile. RESULTS:Half of the participants reported having abnormal stools (constipation and diarrhea). Subjects who had constipation had lower PA and greater difficulty falling asleep than subjects with normal bowel movements. The elderly participants with constipation had a higher amount of sleep during the week and weekend, that subjects with normal bowel movements (9.4 ± 1.6 vs 8.8 ± 1.8 hours, p = 0.013). The constipated subjects slept significantly more than those with normal evacuation (9.7 ± 1.5 vs 9.2 ± 1.8, p = 0.024). No differences in the nutritional status and fiber intake among patients with different consistencies were found. CONCLUSIONS:There is an association between sleep and the consistency of the stools in elderly patients. It would be interesting to evaluate whether long-term improvement of these factors could have a positive impact on the other. :Introducción: Existe escasa información sobre la evaluación de la constipación en los sujetos de edad avanzada. Dentro de la variedad de factores causantes, usualmente no es tomado en cuenta un factor que también podría incidir sobre la presencia de constipación: las horas de sueño. Objetivos: Determinar la asociación entre horas de sueño durante la semana y fin de semana con el estreñimiento en adultos mayores (AM). Materiales y métodos: Se evaluó mediante diversas encuestas validadas la calidad de sueño, consistencia de las heces, actividad física (AF) e ingesta de fibra dietaria en 424 AM sanos de ambos sexos, autónomos de la ciudad de Santiago. Resultados: La mitad de los participantes refirieron tener deposiciones anormales (estreñimiento y diarrea). Los sujetos que presentaron estreñimiento tenían menor AF y mayor dificultad para conciliar el sueño que los sujetos con deposiciones normales. Los AM constipados presentaron una mayor cantidad de sueño durante la semana y fin de semana, que los sujetos con una evacuación normal (9,4 ± 1,6 vs 8,8 ± 1,8 horas; p=0,013). Los AM constipados duermen significativamente más que los AM con evacuación normal (9,7 ± 1,5 vs 9,2 ± 1,8; p=0,024). No se encontraron diferencias en el EN y el consumo de fibra entre pacientes con distintas consistencias. Conclusiones: Existe una asociación entre las horas de sueño que duermen los AM y la consistencia de sus deposiciones. Resultaría de interés evaluar a largo plazo si el mejoramiento de uno de estos factores podría incidir positivamente sobre el otro.
