English abstract: |
This article reported a patient who initially presented with insomnia complaints and was subsequently diagnosed with severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) on polysomnography (PSG). The patient tried continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP)but gave up because wear the ventilator made it more difficult to fall asleep. Then the patient only received group cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which not only alleviated insomnia severity but also promoted severe OSA into mild status. Such case suggested that, firstly, due to the high comorbidity of insomnia and OSA, evaluation of OSA should be considered a part worth enough attention of the clinical diagnosis and treatment of insomnia patients. Secondly, by relieving insomnia, CBT-I can alleviate both nocturnal apnea and daytime somnolence in patients with comorbid insomnia and sleep apnoea (COMISA), so the application of CBT-I should be emphasized in the treatment of such patients.
