Tratamento não farmacológico para a insônia crônica
Open accessAbstract
O objetivo deste artigo é descrever, resumidamente, quais são as terapias não farmacológicas e também a atualização do uso destas para o tratamento da insônia crônica. Além da insônia ser o mais prevalente distúrbio do sono, ela está diretamente associada aos transtornos psiquiátricos. Embora o tratamento farmacológico seja o mais comumente utilizado, as terapias não farmacológicas vêm sendo amplamente estudadas, em particular as relacionadas às mudanças de comportamento. Entre estas estão a cognitiva; a higiene do sono; a do controle de estímulos; a de restrição do sono; a do relaxamento muscular; a da intenção paradoxal e, mais recentemente, a prática regular de exercícios físicos. Inicialmente, o principal objetivo dos estudos realizados com as intervenções comportamentais foi o de melhorar a qualidade do sono dos pacientes. No entanto, alguns estudos recentes têm sido desenvolvidos com o objetivo de avaliar o efeito de tais terapias auxiliando à redução da dose e da freqüência de uso de medicamentos utilizados, bem como à melhora da qualidade de vida dos pacientes. Como a insônia é um problema crônico, os tratamentos de longo prazo têm sido alvos de estudos e de uso comum entre os clínicos.

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.
