Sleep Quality in Individuals Diagnosed with Colorectal Cancer: Factors Associated with Sleep Disturbance as Patients Transition off Treatment

ConclusionsPain, anxiety, fatigue, employment, and comorbid conditions were associated with sleep disturbance, but regression coefficients were small (< |2.5|). Results suggest that screening for anxiety, depression, fatigue, or pain is not sufficient for identifying sleep disturbance. Given the negative consequences of sleep disturbance, sleep disturbance screening may be warranted.
