Sleep quality was monitored for seven days following admission (T0-T6) using a wrist motion analyzer. The developmental trajectory of sleep disturbance was analyzed using the latent category growth model (LCGM). Patients were categorized into the LS group (n=177) and the non-LS group (n=107) based on the 25-question Geriatric Locomotive Function Scale (GLFS-25). Comparisons were made between the two groups regarding the distribution of sleep disturbance trajectories.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Three potential categories for the development trajectory of sleep disturbance in inpatients were identified: non-sleep disturbance, sleep disturbance improvement, and sleep disturbance persistence. The lowest sleep quality was observed on the second day after admission (T2). In the non-LS group, 40 cases (37.4%) experienced no sleep disturbance, 45 cases (42.1%) showed improvement, and 22 cases (20.6%) showed persistence of sleep disturbance. In the LS group, 32\u00a0cases (18.1%) experienced no sleep disturbance, 50 cases (28.2%) showed improvement, and 95 cases (53.7%) exhibited persistent sleep disturbance.
