Abstract :Purpose: In this study, our purpose was to determine the sleep quality and the factors affecting sleep quality of the hospitalized patients orthopedics and traumatology clinic. Methods: This study was conducted as a descriptive study in a hospital between March 30 and June 16, 2022. The sample of the study consisted of 200 patients hospitalized in the orthopedics and traumatology clinic. The data of the study were collected through face-to-face interviews with the patients using the ‘’Sociodemographic and Descriptive Characteristics Questionnaire’’ and the ‘’Richard-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire’’. Results: The average Richard-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire scores of the patients were determined to be 43.33±28.31. While there was no statistically significant difference (p>0.05) observed between the gender, preoperative or postoperative status, presence of noise, room lighting, room crowding, attached the body medical devices, treatment interventions during sleep hours, and Richard-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire score averages of the patients; a statistically significant difference was found in the Richard-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire score averages based on pain and medical diagnosis (p<0.05). It was found that the variation in Richard-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire scores attributed to patient’s pain and diagnosis variables is 8% (R2=0.082). An increase of one unit in the presence of pain led to a decrease of 8.571 unit in sleep quality and the sleep quality of patients diagnosed with coxartrosis decreased by 12.298 units. Conclusions: The patients\' sleep quality was found to be below the moderate level, and it was observed that sleep quality was significantly affected by pain and diagnosis.Keywords : Orthopedic, Traumatology, Sleep quality, Patients, Nursing
