P156 Global sleep health surveillance of adults: A scoping review

INTRODUCTION: The monitoring of sleep health is an emerging but globally under-recognised public health opportunity to help address poor health and social outcomes in the general population. This scoping review aims to identify the existing national surveillance systems monitoring sleep health and to describe the sleep indicators used in the questionnaires. METHODS: We systematically searched the grey and peer-reviewed literature for cross-sectional national health surveys that included measurement of the sleep of adults aged 18+. Countries screened were the 194 Member States of the World Health Organization (WHO). Searches included 1) targeted searches of the websites of national and international health agencies and statistics departments, 2) customised internet search, and 3) search of electronic databases (PubMed and EMBASE). Progress to date Searches of targeted websites and the internet have been completed. Preliminary analysis shows that 49 (25%) countries have national surveys that include at least one sleep health-related question. Breakdown by the WHO defined regions reveal the European Region (45%) with the highest sleep health surveillance and the African Region (6%) with the lowest. An electronic database search is currently being conducted. Intended outcome and impact This scoping review will provide an overview of the current status of global sleep health surveillance including how sleep is measured in population health surveys. The results will raise awareness about the need to monitor sleep at a national level to improve health and social outcomes.
