Purpose: It is known that physical activity is essential for all dimensions of the disease in individuals with Fibromyalgia. This study investigated how sleep quality and kinesiophobia levels affect individuals with Fibromyalgia with different physical activity levels.
Methods: Our study was planned as a cross-sectional study of fibromyalgia individuals who applied to Ankara Medipol University's physiotherapy and rehabilitation department. The sample consists of one hundred sixty-eight volunteer participants. Physical activity levels of individuals, using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), sleep quality, using the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and kinesiophobia levels, using the Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale (TKS), were evaluated.
Results: It was determined that the amount of physical activity of fibromyalgia patients was 1213.21±141.19 METmin/week, which means low physical activity level, and 50.6% were not physically active. The mean total score of PSQI was 8.23±1.32, and the mean total score of TKS was 43.12±2.19. It was determined that there was a negative and significant correlation (p<0.05) between IPAQ and PSQI (r= -0.26) and TKS (r= -0.32). A significant difference was found when the PSQI and TKS scores were compared between the three groups with different physical activity levels (p<0.05).
Conclusion: As a result, as the physical activity levels of individuals with fibromyalgia increase, sleep quality, and kinesiophobia levels are positively affected. This study highlights the importance of adequate regular physical activity to improve sleep health and prevent kinesiophobia in individuals with Fibromyalgia.
