Results: During the COVID-19 pandemic of the students in the PTR department, 72.48% had poor sleep quality, 27.43% were inactive and only 22.82% had sufficient physical activity.

In addition, students with good physical activity scores were found to have less use of sleeping pills and a weak level of positive correlation with time management (p<0.05).
