Location Webinar Timezone America/New York Insomnia is a common health complaint that can occur independently or comorbidly with another medical (pain) or psychiatric (depression) condition. Insomnia affects 10% of the adult population on a chronic basis, plus an additional 15% to 20% occasionally. Persistent insomnia carries significant economic burden. Despite its high prevalence and negative consequences, insomnia often remains undetected and untreated. It is essential to have brief and psychometrically-sound assessment instruments to detect insomnia and evaluate treatment outcome.
