Sleep disorders constitute a major public health concern due to their high frequency and their impact on alertness and overall health. The objective of this study was to assess sleep disorders and factors associated among diabetic patients attending public healthcare facilities in the Mopti Region in 2022. Methodology: A cross sectional study was conducted from March 1 to August 31, 2022. The study population was diabetic patients attending healthcare facilities in the Mopti region. Patients aged 18 years and older, attending public healthcare facilities and who provided informed consent, were included. A total of 289 patients were included in the study. Data were collected using a standardized questionnaire, including the Berlin Questionnaire, and were analyzed using SPSS software version 25. Results: The mean age of participants was 51.59 ± 11.39 years. Type 2 diabetes accounted for 66.9% of cases. The mean body mass index (BMI) was 27.62 ± 4.26 kg/m², and the mean sleep duration was 5.76 ± 1.43 hours per day. A high risk of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) was observed in 92.4% of participants. Variables statistically associated with the dependent variable (OSAS) included high blood pressure (OR = 52.4; 95% CI: 1.63–16.8), Tobacco no use (OR = 0.04; 95% CI: 0.03–0.70) and BMI ≥ 25 (OR = 3; 95% CI: 1.20–7.50) Conclusion: This study reveals a high frequency of sleep disorders among diabetic patients in the Mopti region. A nationwide study is warranted to better estimate the prevalence of this condition and to inform the implementation of effective control strategies. These findings highlight the need for large-scale national studies to more accurately estimate the burden of this condition and to guide the implementation of effective prevention and control strategies.
