Evaluation of sleep quality and nutritional status of patients with frequent ventricular premature complexes

Aim: Rhythm disturbances in the heart significantly affect the quality of life of the patients. The aim of this study was to investigatethe effect of ventricular premature complexes (VPC) on sleep quality and nutritional status.Material and Methods: This study was conducted on 50 patients with palpitations who were referred to the cardiology outpatientclinic and had more than 10,000 VPC per day as a result of a 24-hour holter, and 50 patients who presented with palpitations buthad less than 10,000 VPC in the holter. Demographic characteristics, nutritional status, sleep quality and some anthropometricmeasurements of the patients were evaluated using a questionnaire. Food consumption record was taken to determine daily energyand macro nutrient intake of individuals. Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) was used to evaluate sleep quality.Results: PSQI scores indicating decreased sleep quality were found to be high in the VPC group (p
