Sleep disturbance is common in older adults and is associated with increased healthcare utilization, more depressive symptoms, and other adverse effects on health-related quality of life. Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a disorder characterized by repetitive episodes of complete or partial upper airway obstruction occurring during sleep. OSA increases in prevalence with age, and is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease, decreased quality of life, and increased mortality. Insomnia also increases in prevalence with age, and is associated with numerous adverse outcomes, including cognitive decline, decreased quality of life, increased healthcare costs and increased mortality. The diagnostic criteria for insomnia include a decreased ability to fall asleep or stay asleep, frequent nighttime awakening or poor quality sleep that is associated with daytime impairment such as fatigue, impaired attention, or daytime sleepiness. Increasing evidence suggests that insomnia often coexists with OSA, particularly in older adults, and predicts worse outcomes of OSA. Both OSA and insomnia have a higher prevalence among Veterans, compared to the general population.
