Abstract (English): Introduction: Sleep deprivation interferes with physical and mental well-being. Case Reports: To observe the presence of sleep disturbances in visually impaired patients at the Instituto de Cegos da Bahia, seven patients over 18 years old were interviewed about sleep in December 2024. The MSQBR questionnaire and a semi-structured questionnaire were used. There were three blind patients and four with low vision, two male and five female, with ages ranging from 20 to 63 years. Sleep difficulty ranged from mild to important in six cases with a positive score. Four patients reported difficulty initiating sleep, waking up tired, and sleeping during the day; five woke up in the middle of the night. Memory difficulty and concentration difficulty were found in 4 and 2 patients, respectively. None of the interviewees were using medication. Discussion: Cognitive impairment is the most important effect of sleep deprivation. In this study, the difficulty regarding memory was the most marked report, and concentration deficit was reported by the two most severe cases. Conclusion: The early identification of sleep disorders reduces harm and favors an effective therapeutic response to less aggressive and inclusive therapies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Portuguese): Introdução: A privação do sono interfere no bem-estar físico e mental. Relato dos casos: Para observar distúrbios do sono em pacientes com deficiência visual entrevistou-se sobre o sono sete pacientes maiores de 18 anos atendidos em dezembro de 2024 em uma instituição para cegos na Bahia. Utilizou-se o questionário MSQ-BR e um questionário semiestruturado. Três pacientes cegos e quatro com baixa visão, dois cegos do sexo masculino e cinco do sexo feminino, a idade variou de 20 a 63 anos. A dificuldade no sono foi de leve a importante em seis casos com escore positivo. Quatro pacientes referiram dificuldade para iniciar o sono, acordar cansados e dormir durante o dia; cinco acordam no meio da noite. Dificuldade de memória e dificuldade de concentração foi encontrada em 4 e 2 pacientes, respectivamente. Nenhum dos entrevistados fazia uso de medicação. Discussão: O comprometimento cognitivo é o efeito mais importante da privação do sono. Neste estudo a dificuldade em relação à memória foi o relato mais marcante e o déficit de concentração foi relatado pelos dois casos mais graves. Conclusão: A identificação precoce dos transtornos do sono, reduz danos e favorece a uma resposta terapêutica eficaz a terapias menos agressivas e inclusivas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
