Abstract

Purpose of Review

To evaluate and summarize recent research articles pertaining to insomnia in older adults that can guide healthcare providers on factors to consider when assessing and managing insomnia.

Recent Findings

Up to 75% of older adults experience symptoms of insomnia. Insomnia is associated with socioeconomic status, racial and ethnic classification, family relationships, medical and mental health disorders, cognitive function, and dementia. Although one-fifth of older adults are still prescribed sleep medications, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia is the first-line treatment for insomnia and has resulted in short-term and long-term benefits for older adults.

Summary

To manage insomnia safely and effectively, healthcare providers need to consistently assess for insomnia during baseline and annual assessments, evaluate medical and social factors associated with insomnia, minimize the use of sleep medications, and provide referrals to and/or collaborate with providers who perform cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia. Insomnia screening is important as it facilitates early intervention, reduces the potential for pharmacological management, and enables further assessment and early identification of associated outcomes, such as cognitive impairment.

Sedative hypnotics were commonly prescribed for older veterans, which are potentially inappropriate and should be avoided. Instead, brief behavioral therapy or cognitive behavioral therapy should be used for insomnia. PubMed

J Clin Sleep Med. 2017;13(11):1243–54 Sleep variability is commonly found in insomnia and it affects older adults. The RCT study examined sleep variability changes using brief behavioral therapy for insomnia (BBT-I). Sixty-two participants were assessed from baseline to post-treatment and at 3 months using sleep diaries and actigraphy. Variabilities in sleep onset latency (using diaries) and total sleep time (using actigraphy) were greatly decreased in participants of BBT-I; and those who had higher baseline sleep variability responded better to BBT-I. Effects were mediated by reductions in bedtime, wake time variability, and time in bed. PubMedPubMedCentral

Behav Sleep Med. 2017;15(2):144–57 Sleep variability is commonly found in insomnia and it affects older adults. A secondary analysis of sleep variability data was conducted. A cross-sectional analysis and change over time was evaluated for objective sleep variability in older adults with insomnia and short sleep duration, participating in a non-pharmacologic intervention study. Results supported previous findings suggesting that increased variability in objective sleep is associated with poor subjective sleep quality. Greater variability in sleep duration was correlated with higher HbA1c; and variability in sleep onset time was related to higher BMI. Also, objective sleep variability (sleep efficiency and WASO variability) can be improved with non-pharmacologic interventions. PubMed

Sleep quality was measured by questionnaires and an actigraph with EEG. While both interventions improved subjective sleep quality, listening to music before bedtime greatly reduced the wake time after sleep onset, as compared with brisk evening walks. PubMed
