Insomnia and sleep apnea are associated with a variety of comorbid conditions and carry a symptom burden to patients. As the prevalence of insomnia and sleep apnea continue to rise, it is imperative that appropriate tools are implemented to accurately capture their prevalence in acute care settings. A retrospective chart review was conducted on 3,074 inpatient charts in Calgary, Alberta. The estimated prevalence of insomnia was 10.36 percent, and sleep apnea was 6.56 percent in inpatient visits between January 1, 2015, and June 30, 2015. The sensitivity of insomnia and sleep apnea were low, and the specificity was high when comparing the chart review to the ICD-10. As both insomnia and sleep apnea were associated with various comorbid conditions, it would be imperative that alternate methods are identified to capture and code them. This would enable clinicians to better identify and treat them, and ultimately improve patient care. |
