Overview
The prevalence of insomnia disorder is 10,000-20,000 per 100,000 (10%-20%) in the primary care setting. There is no significant association between increased risk of death and insomnia. Insomnia is found to be higher in incidence among the population of age <35 years. There is no racial predilection to insomnia disorder. However, sleep disturbances more likely affect individuals of the black race.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence and Prevalence
Insomnia affects 10-50% of the population worldwide. The prevalence of insomnia disorder is 10,000-20,000 per 100,000 (10%-20%) in the primary care setting.[1]According to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services in year 2007, approximately 64 million Americans suffer from insomnia each year.[2] Insomnia tends to increase with age and affects about 40 percent of women and 30 percent of men.[3] The average American gets 7 hours of sleep, instead of the 8 to 10 hours recommended by doctors. Children, however, are recommended more than 8 hours.
Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate
There is no significant association between increased risk of death and insomnia.[4]
Age and Gender
Insomnia is found to be higher in incidence among the population of age <35 years. The females are more affected than males but the values are statistically insignificant. [5].[6]
Race
There is no racial predilection to insomnia disorder. However, sleep disturbances more likely affect individuals of the black race.[7][8]
