Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Highlights • Seventy-eight percent of US-based PatientsLikeMe respondents were at risk for National Sleep Foundation (NSF)-defined insomnia. • Trouble falling asleep was the sleep symptom most likely to result in self-reporting insomnia. • Forty-four percent awaken during the night and 42% awake unrefreshed, but these symptoms receive less attention. • Insomnia was worse in fibromyalgia (92%), Crohn's disease (88%), depression (85%), and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) (85%). • Only 34% of patients reporting severe insomnia had ever received an insomnia diagnosis.
