Abstract

Insomnia is a common and debilitating condition in adults, especially in the elderly.

It is associated with poor mental health and contributes to the development of a wide range of medical conditions, including obesity, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and dementia. The condition is frequently missed or underdiagnosed and poorly managed. This brief review summarises the aetiology, clinical features, diagnosis and latest management strategies.

Keywords: Insomnia, adults
