23 RESULTS Univariant analysis Answering yes to the question: Have you been suffering from insomnia since you have been admitted? Associated factors Yes (n=23) No/Sometimes (n=22) N(%) N(%) p Diurnal somnolence <0.05 Feeling of non-restorative sleep <0.05 Coming from acute care (vs. home) <0.05 Dyspnea <0.05 Ruminations Mean Mean HAD score 22.26± ±7.79 p=0.076
24 RESULTS Univariant analysis Moderate to severe insomnia (SDS 5) Associated factors Degree of worry about insomnia SDS 5 <5 Mean Mean p 3.56± ±1.5 p<0.05 SDS Tumor extension 5 <5 p Locoregional 3 (17.6%) 14 (82.4%) Disseminated 12 (48%) 13 (52.0%) <0.05
25 CONCLUSIONS Insomnia was a frequent and multifactorial symptom in our PCU Patients atributed insomnia mostly to physical factors Patients presented a high level of emotional distress The Sleep Disturbance Scale can be a useful tool for initial evaluation and follow-up of insomnia in PCU
26 CONCLUSIONS Moderate to severe insomnia was frequent and it was associated with a higher degree of worry about insomnia and with disseminated cancer. Organic changes or treatment associated with advanced disease may contribute to sleep cycle disruption
27 CONCLUSIONS More prospective studies are needed to determine the factors associated with insomnia and to understand the possible relationship between them
