Sleep Time and Insomnia Factors Among Professional Flight Members

Summary

Sleep is a physiological function that plays an essential role in many somatic, cognitive or psychological processes. Although the criteria for sleep effectiveness are multiple, its quantity is unanimously recognized as a major determinant of health. Too little sleep time is indeed associated with an increase in metabolic, cardiovascular and accidental morbidity and mortality, caused by sleepiness during journeys or at the workplace. In the wake of recent work in the general French population, a specific study on the prevalence and factors associated with sleeping time and chronic insomnia among flight members appears relevant. Chronic insomnia and sleep debt can thus be assumed to be more common among aircrews than in the general population, due to these specific operational constraints. Better consideration of certain sleep disorders in professional flight members could make it possible to adapt prevention or countermeasures strategies intended to optimize risk management with regard to flight safety.
