Clinical Correlates of Insomnia in Patients With Chronic Illness
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Patients with chronic insomnia are more likely to develop affective disorders, cardiac morbidity, and other adverse health outcomes, yet many clinicians tend to trivialize the complaint of insomnia or to attribute it only to psychiatric causes. OBJECTIVES: To estimate the prevalence and longitudinal course of insomnia in patients with documented chronic medical illness and/or depression and to quantify the associations between specific chronic conditions and insomnia. METHODS: The presence of mild or severe insomnia was based on responses to a sleep questionnaire completed by 3445 patients with at least 1 of 5 physician-identified chronic conditions (hypertension, diabetes, congestive heart failure, myocardial infarction, or depression) at baseline; a subsample of 1814 patients completed follow-up questionnaires at 2 years. Using multivariate techniques, we evaluated the relationship between chronic conditions, patient-reported comorbidities, and insomnia (complaints of initiating and maintaining sleep), adjusting for sociodemographics and health habits. RESULTS: Sixteen percent of study patients had severe and 34% had mild insomnia at baseline. At 2-year follow-up, 59% (95% confidence interval, 55%-63%) of patients with mild insomnia and 83% (95% confidence interval, 78%-88%) of patients with severe insomnia at baseline still had sleep problems. Odds ratios corresponding to mild and severe insomnia for key risk factors were as follows: current depressive disorder, 2.6 and 8.2; subthreshold depression, 2.2 and 3.4; congestive heart failure, 1.6 and 2.5; obstructive airway disease, 1.6 and 1.5; back problems, 1.4 and 1.5; hip impairment, 2.2 and 2.7; and prostate problems, 1.6 and 1.4. The majority of insomnia-comorbidity associations observed at baseline persisted at 2-year follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with insomnia require follow-up, as the majority continue to be bothered by difficulty initiating and maintaining sleep. In addition to detecting affective disorders in patients with insomnia, clinicians should focus on medical conditions that disturb sleep, especially cardiopulmonary disease, painful musculoskeletal conditions, and prostate problems.

“The assumption that insomnia is caused by and resolved once the parent disorder is treated is untenable, considering insomnia is highly refractory after treatment of the comorbid condition [45].”

In the citing paper
“Insomnia rates range from 16 to 33 % for those with comorbid medical conditions, such as diabetes mellitus, heart disease, and chronic back pain [14,45], and the rates range as high as 88 % for those with insomnia symptoms and chronic pain [46].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
