Abstract:
Background: Acute coronary syndrome (ACS) induces clinically significant posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS) in 12% of patients. Subjective sleep problems are a risk factor for the development of PTSS, but this is underexplored in patients with ACS. Purpose: To examine the association of insomnia symptoms with ACS-induced PTSS. Methods: In this longitudinal study with 154 patients (all white, 84.4% male, mean age 58.7 years) with a verified ACS, insomnia symptoms were interviewer assessed at hospital admission and at 3 months, using the Jenkins Sleep Scale (JSS)-4. ACS-induced PTSS were assessed with the Clinician-Administered Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Scale 3 months after hospital admission. In multivariable linear models, insomnia symptoms were regressed on PTSS, adjusting for demographics, clinical variables, health behaviors, and psychological data, including cognitive depressive symptoms.
