Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted among 116 hypertensive outpatients at Hospital of Thai Nguyen University of Medicine and Pharmacy from July 2024 to May 2025. Data were collected and analyzed using SPSS version 20.0. Results: 78.4% of patients reported sleep disorders-related complaints. 75% were confirmed to have sleep disorders with an average PSQI score of 10.35 ± 3.55.
