Objective: to analyze sleep quality of nurses who worked coping with COVID-19 in scientific evidence.
Methods: an integrative review, carried out in seven databases, including studies between December 2021 and June 2022, without language restrictions. The sample consisted of 15 primary studies.
Results: nurses working in hospital, intensive care, outpatient care and teaching institutions constitute a vulnerable group for sleep disorders: latency, duration, efficiency and quality. The disorders identified involved insomnia at varying levels of severity: daytime dysfunction and morning sleepiness. Night work and low capacity for self-care were determinants of impaired sleep patterns.
Final Considerations: the COVID-19 pandemic contributed to greater vulnerability of nurses to changes in sleep, requiring strategies for risk management and well-being promotion.

Chronic exposure to traffic noise is associated with increased stress and sleep disruptions. Research on the health consequences of environmental noise, specifically traffic noise, has primarily been conducted in high-income countries (HICs), which have guided the development of noise regulations. The relevance of these findings to policy frameworks in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) remains uncertain.
