Sleep patterns share common pathways with nociceptive stimuli. Several important
factors are reviewed in considering connections between sleep and pain. Causes
for sleep fragmentation include sleep disordered breathing; abnormal leg
movements, including restless legs syndrome and periodic limb movements; and
underlying mood disorder, which may be exacerbated by physical symptoms.
Identification and management of insomnia includes the definition of the
condition, pharmacologic interventions, the role of circadian rhythms and clock
adjustments, and the use of cognitive behavior therapy for insomnia.
