By the time the patient
By the time the patient with insomnia makes it to primary care, they have probably been struggling with sleep for a while, and have probably tried some things on their own – without luck. And now they’re hoping YOU can fix it, preferably…tonight?
Insomnia is a murky clinical topic; it’s not always as simple as not getting enough sleep. If you aren’t sure where to start with the patient with insomnia, let’s get you sure. This week, we’ll talk about:
✅ Sleep hygiene – what it is and why it’s important in patients with insomnia
✅ The role of substances (alcohol, caffeine, nicotine) in sleep issues
✅ Getting an insomnia/sleep history
✅ Comorbidities that can be causing or contributing to their insomnia
✅ Pharmacological approach to treating insomnia
✅ Non-pharmacological approach to treating insomnia
There aren’t any tests or labs for diagnosing insomnia. Digging deep and getting a very good history is the biggest part of understanding what is going on and developing the best plan to get your patient the relief they need.
