Abstract

Background

Disturbed sleep is prevalent after corona virus disease (COVID-19). However, little is known of post infectious prevalence, course, predictors and treatment of chronic insomnia.

Aim

To estimate the prevalence of chronic insomnia three and twelve months after hospitalisation for COVID-19, to identify predictors of chronic insomnia, and to evaluate the feasibility of a nurse-administered digital cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (dCBTi) protocol.

Method

Patients hospitalised at Akershus University Hospital (Norway) for COVID-19 between February–June 2020 were eligible. The 94 patients that consented to participate were contacted by phone and interviewed with a modified DUKE structured interview three- and twelve months after discharge. Participants with chronic insomnia after twelve months were offered a nurse-administered dCBTi treatment protocol. Outcome measurements were sleep efficiency (SE) calculated by standard formulas (0-100 %) and the Bergen Insomnia Scale (BIS) (0-42).

Results

At three-month follow-up, 22 persons (23 %) fulfilled the diagnostic criteria for chronic insomnia. At twelve-month follow-up, 23 fulfilled the diagnostic criteria. The odds ratios for chronic insomnia after twelve months were 0.857 (0.742–0.989) for body mass index (BMI), and 0.239 (0.069–0.821) for male sex. Ten participated in the dCBTi feasibility study. Five completed the treatment protocol. SE improved, but not significantly. The BIS score improved significantly from 24 to 12 (p-value = 0.036).

Conclusion

Chronic insomnia remained stable three- and twelve months post COVID-19 hospitalisation. Female sex and low BMI were independent predictors of chronic insomnia twelve months post infection, but only 50 % of participants completed the protocol. Completers significantly reduced insomnia symptoms.

科罗娜病毒病住院两年后的失眠症患病率和由护士管理的数字认知行为疗法的可行性。

背景：科罗娜病毒病（COVID-19）后普遍存在睡眠障碍。目的：估算因COVID-19住院3个月和12个月后慢性失眠症的发病率，确定慢性失眠症的预测因素，并评估由护士管理的失眠症数字认知行为疗法（dCBTi）方案的可行性：2020年2月至6月期间在阿克苏斯大学医院（挪威）住院治疗COVID-19的患者均符合条件。我们通过电话联系了同意参与的94名患者，并在他们出院3个月和12个月后对他们进行了改良的DUKE结构化访谈。十二个月后仍患有慢性失眠症的参与者将接受由护士管理的 dCBTi 治疗方案。结果测量包括按标准公式计算的睡眠效率（SE）（0-100%）和卑尔根失眠量表（BIS）（0-42）：在三个月的随访中，有 22 人（23%）符合慢性失眠的诊断标准。随访 12 个月后，有 23 人符合诊断标准。十二个月后慢性失眠症的几率比为：体重指数（BMI）0.857（0.742-0.989），男性0.239（0.069-0.821）。有 10 人参加了 dCBTi 可行性研究。其中五人完成了治疗方案。SE 有所改善，但不明显。BIS评分从24分到12分有明显改善（P值=0.036）：结论：慢性失眠症在 COVID-19 住院后的三个月和十二个月内保持稳定。女性和低体重指数是感染后 12 个月慢性失眠的独立预测因素，但只有 50% 的参与者完成了治疗方案。完成方案者的失眠症状明显减轻。

期刊介绍： Sleep Medicine aims to be a journal no one involved in clinical sleep medicine can do without. A journal primarily focussing on the human aspects of sleep, integrating the various disciplines that are involved in sleep medicine: neurology, clinical neurophysiology, internal medicine (particularly pulmonology and cardiology), psychology, psychiatry, sleep technology, pediatrics, neurosurgery, otorhinolaryngology, and dentistry. The journal publishes the following types of articles: Reviews (also intended as a way to bridge the gap between basic sleep research and clinical relevance); Original Research Articles; Full-length articles; Brief communications; Controversies; Case reports; Letters to the Editor; Journal search and commentaries; Book reviews; Meeting announcements; Listing of relevant organisations plus web sites.
