Abstract
This study analyzed the relationship between different levels of sleep difficulties and physical, mental, and emotional variables in long-term breast cancer survivors (LTBCSs), and identified predictors of sleep-related complaints.
Five or more years post-diagnosis, 55% of LTBCSs experienced higher sleep difficulties, associated with poorer HRQoL, self-perceived physical fitness, mood, and increased CRF and pain. Key predictors explained 58.4% of variance in sleep difficulties.
