피해야 할 일반적인 실수

  • Using subjective sleep quality alone without considering the daytime impairment and distress items which are equally important
  • Not recognizing that an ISI change of 6 points (not just 1-2 points) constitutes reliable clinical improvement
  • Assuming insomnia severity correlates directly with hours of sleep — many insomnia patients sleep 6+ hours but with poor quality

자주 묻는 질문

What ISI score means I have insomnia?

A score of 15 or above indicates moderate clinical insomnia warranting treatment. Scores of 8-14 suggest subthreshold insomnia where sleep hygiene and behavioral interventions may help prevent progression.

What is the best treatment for insomnia?

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) is the first-line treatment recommended by all major medical guidelines. It is as effective as medication short-term and superior long-term, with typical ISI reductions of 8-12 points.
