However, research investigating the impact of sleep on psychological distress and health\u2010related quality of life (HRQoL) in PH remains limited. This study aimed to identify the nature of common sleep difficulties in PH and the associated psychosocial impact using multiple self\u2010reported measures. A cross\u2010sectional survey was conducted with 111 adults with PH recruited from PH associations globally. Most identified as White (91%) and female (82%). Participants completed measures of overall sleep quality (Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index), insomnia (Insomnia Severity Scale), daytime sleepiness (Epworth Sleepiness Scale), anxiety (Generalised Anxiety Disorder\u20107), depression (Patient Health Questionnaire\u20109) and HRQoL (emPHasis\u201010). Regression analyses were used to inspect relationships between measures and other PH variables. A total of 79.8% of participants were identified as having poor sleep quality. The most prevalent sleep\u2010related difficulties were sleep disturbance and sleep latency issues. Insomnia and daytime sleepiness rates were also elevated (35% and 33.6%, respectively) and often co\u2010occurred. In addition, 40% and 29% of participants had clinical levels of depression and anxiety, respectively. All types of sleep difficulties were associated with lower HRQoL. A series of parallel mediation analyses suggested that this association was partially mediated by depressive symptoms. The findings indicate the need to routinely screen for both sleep difficulties and mood disturbance in this population. Further work is needed to understand whether existing brief sleep interventions are effective for use in PH, where multiple factors are influencing sleep quality.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/crj.70220","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,1]],"date-time":"2026-08-01T06:56:03Z","timestamp":1785567363000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["How Do Sleep Difficulties Interact With Anxiety, Depression and Health\u2010Related Quality of Life in Pulmonary Hypertension?"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-5696-3191","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jemma L.","family":"Green","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Psychology University of Sheffield  Sheffield UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5413-8174","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vlad","family":"Costin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Psychology University of Sussex  Brighton UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5898-3087","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Iain","family":"Armstrong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Clinical Medicine The University of Sheffield  Sheffield UK"},{"name":"Sheffield Pulmonary Vascular Disease Unit Royal Hallamshire Hospital, Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust  Sheffield UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6788-7222","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andrew R.","family":"Thompson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"South Wales Clinical Psychology Training Programme Cardiff and Vale University Health Board and Cardiff University  Cardiff UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4962-3551","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gregg H.","family":"Rawlings","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Psychology University of Sheffield  Sheffield UK"},{"name":"Clinical and Applied Psychology Unit University of Sheffield  Sheffield UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_14_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41572-023-00486-7"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/JAHA.121.024969"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjopen-2020-041428"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fmed.2022.765461"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm14030982"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/pul2.70101"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jpainsymman.2015.07.012"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1477-7525-7-54"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_14_10_1","first-page":"52","article-title":"The Multifaceted Nature of Sleep: Understanding Physiology, Disorders, and Optimal Practices for Health and Well\u2010Being","volume":"3","author":"Adroa Arifya B.","year":"2024","journal-title":"Research Invention Journal of Research in Medical Sciences"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0165-1781(89)90047-4"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/sleep\/34.5.601"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/sleep\/14.6.540"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00408-010-9277-9"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12775\/JEHS.2025.77.56684"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/14799731241251827"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jbct.2021.12.003"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.smrv.2024.101972"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s12890-015-0005-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_14_20_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1474515114537951"},{"issue":"10","key":"e_1_2_14_21_1","first-page":"1628","article-title":"Strengthening the Reporting of Observational Studies in Epidemiology (STROBE): Explanation and Elaboration","volume":"4","author":"Vandenbrouckel J.
