Abstract

Objective: To analyze the relationship between Traditional Medicine body constitution types and insomnia. Subjects and Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study from December 2023 to the end of May 2024 on 93 inpatients diagnosed with non-organic insomnia at Gerontology Department and Acupuncture Department of the national hospital of traditional medicine. Results: The female/male ratio was approximately 2/1. The mean age was 68,52 ± 12,30 years. Patients aged ≥ 60 years old accounted for the highest proportion (80,7%). Patients with the Yin-deficiency body type had the highest proportion, followed by the Qi-stagnation, Phlegm-dampness, Qi-deficiency, Yang-deficiency, Blood-stasis, Inherited-special and Balanced. There was an association between Traditional Medicine body constitution types and sleep quality. Patients with Balanced had a lower mean PSQI score and a lower level of sleep difficulty, longer sleep duration per night, and higher sleep efficiency compared to the following body types: Qi-stagnation, Yin-deficiency, Yang-deficiency, Phlegm-dampness, Dampness-heat, Qi-deficiency, Blood-stasis, and Inherited-special.
