Insomnia with objective short sleep duration in community-living older persons: A multifactorial geriatric health condition.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Insomnia or poor sleep quality with objective short sleep duration (hereafter referred to as ISSD) has been identified as a high-risk phenotype among middle-aged persons. We evaluated the prevalence and clinical correlates of ISSD among community-living older persons.

Methods

In 3053 men from the Osteoporotic Fractures in Men Sleep Study (MrOS; average age 76.4 ± 5.5 years) and 3044 women from the Study of Osteoporotic Fractures (SOF; average age 83.6 ± 3.8 years), we evaluated the prevalence of ISSD (trouble getting to sleep within 30 minutes, waking up in the middle of the night or early morning, and/or taking a medication to help with sleep ≥3 times per week and actigraphy-estimated sleep duration <6 h). Using separate logistic regression models in men and women, we evaluated the cross-sectional associations between predisposing, precipitating, and perpetuating factors for ISSD, as compared with normal sleep (no insomnia and actigraphy-estimated sleep duration of 6-9 h).

Results

Overall, 20.6% of older men and 12.8% of older women had insomnia with short sleep duration. Multiple predisposing, precipitating, and perpetuating factors were cross-sectionally associated with ISSD in both men and women. In multivariable models that adjusted for predisposing factors (demographics, multimorbidity, obesity), precipitating (depression, anxiety, central nervous system-active medication use, restless legs syndrome) and perpetuating (napping, falls) factors were significantly associated with ISSD in men and women (adjusted odds ratios ranging 1.63-4.57).

Conclusions

In this cross-sectional study of community-living older men and women, ISSD was common and associated with multiple predisposing, precipitating, and perpetuating factors, akin to a multifactorial geriatric health condition. Future work should examine causal pathways and determine whether the identified correlates represent modifiable risk factors.

Project description:This study examined whether individuals with insomnia and objective short sleep duration <6 h, a subgroup with greater risks of adverse health outcomes, differ in their response to cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) when compared to individuals with insomnia and normal sleep duration ≥6 h. Secondary analyses of a randomized, clinical trial with 60 adult participants (n = 31 women) from a single academic medical center. Outpatient treatment lasted 8 weeks, with a final follow-up conducted at 6 months. Mixed-effects models controlling for age, sex, CBT-I treatment group assignment, and treatment provider examined sleep parameters gathered via actigraphy, sleep diaries, and an Insomnia Symptom Questionnaire (ISQ) across the treatment and follow-up period. Six months post-CBT-I treatment, individuals with insomnia and normal sleep duration ≥6 h fared significantly better on clinical improvement milestones than did those with insomnia and short sleep duration <6 h. Specifically, individuals with insomnia and normal sleep duration had significantly higher insomnia remission (ISQ < 36.5; χ2[1, N = 60] = 44.72, p < .0001), more normative sleep efficiency (SE) on actigraphy (SE > 80%; χ2[1, N = 60] = 21, p < .0001), normal levels of middle of the night wake after sleep onset (MWASO) <31 minutes (χ2[1, N = 60] = 37.85, p < .0001), and a >50% decline in MWASO (χ2[1, N = 60] = 60, p < .0001) compared to individuals with insomnia and short sleep duration. Additionally, those with insomnia and normal sleep duration had more success decreasing their total wake time (TWT) at the 6-month follow-up compared to those with insomnia and short sleep duration (χ2[2, N = 60] = 44.1, p < .0001). Receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis found that using a 6-h cutoff with actigraphy provided a 95.7% sensitivity and 91.9% specificity for determining insomnia remission, with the area under the curve = 0.986. Findings suggest that individuals with insomnia and objective short sleep duration <6 h are significantly less responsive to CBT-I than those with insomnia and normal sleep duration ≥6 h. Using an actigraphy TST cutoff of 6 hours to classify sleep duration groups was highly accurate and provided good discriminant value for determining insomnia remission.
