The presence of insomnia and depression contributes to the acceptance of an initial treatment trial of continuous positive airway pressure therapy in patients with obstructive sleep apnea

Insomnia affects patient‐reported outcome in sleep apnea treated with hypoglossal nerve stimulation

“…Each item is scored on fivepoint Likert scale from 0 = no problem to 4 = very severe problem, giving a total score ranging from 0 to 28. Based on the ISI total score, patients can be categorized as having no clinically significant insomnia (0-7), subthreshold insomnia (8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14), clinical insomnia of moderate severity (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21), or severe clinical insomnia (22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28). The ISI questionnaire can be self-administered and is validated for German-speaking populations.…”

“…The presence or absence of depression at the follow-up assessment was determined from the medical records as depression is a common psychiatric comorbidity in patients with OSA 13 and may impact on adherence to OSA therapy, especially in patients with COMISA. 24 Data were analyzed using version 25.0 of the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software (SPSS, Chicago, Illinois) and R version 4.0. Descriptive statistics were calculated with continuous variables being reported as medians and categorical variables as frequencies.…”

“…Using the ISI score obtained at the follow‐up assessment, patients were categorized as having either no/subthreshold insomnia or moderate/severe insomnia. The presence or absence of depression at the follow‐up assessment was determined from the medical records as depression is a common psychiatric comorbidity in patients with OSA 13 and may impact on adherence to OSA therapy, especially in patients with COMISA 24 …”

Assessment and diagnosis of insomnia for clinical and research practice: a scoping review protocol

“…Populations that benefit from sleep assessment via instruments and scales include women who underwent chemotherapy (Mejía-Rojas et al, 2020), older adults with cognitive impairment (Bademli et al, 2018), depression (Okajima et al, 2020), chronic pain (Dragioti et al, 2018), schizophrenia (Robertson et al, 2019), Coronavirus (COVID-19) related to psychiatric problems (Hao et al, 2020), obstructive sleep apnea (Drakou et al, 2021), institutionalized and noninstitutionalized older adults (Silva et al, 2020), and children and adolescents with high screen media use (Hisler et al, 2020) and other different contexts (Zhou et al, 2020). Among the instruments to assess insomnia, some were applied by nurses (Sagherian et al, 2020;Tselebis et al, 2020) but research is still evolving.…”
