At the end of the visit, each participant was asked to complete PSQI, a validated 19 questionnaire used to measure the quality and pattern of sleep in the past 1 month. It produces global quality score from 0 to 21, derived from seven components. The components include subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep duration habitual sleep efficacy, sleep disturbances, use of sleep medication, and day time dysfunction. People with a global score equal or less than 5 are defined to have good sleep quality, while a global score more than 5 identifies those with poor sleep quality. This study was done in rural population with diabetes to enlighten the sleep duration and quality. Results 32 patients [64 %] have good sleep latency. Sleep duration of 36 patients [72 %] is more than 7 hours. Average duration of sleep of 50 patients is 7.56 hours. Habitual sleep efficiency is 0 in most patients [n=48 (98 %)]. Average time of onset of sleep is 1024 PM and average time of getting up from bed is 510 AM.84 % [N=42] have a score of 1 in sleep disturbances.65 % of them get up in the middle of the night and 80 % of them get up for using the toilet for micturition.96 % of patients did not use any sleep medication.
