在1997年2月7日至1998年2月6日期间，对爱达荷州莫斯科的初级保健医师实践中睡眠障碍的患病率进行了研究。对这1年期间的初级保健门诊就诊人群进行了调查。在此期间，我们的现场研究员在患者就诊期间与访问莫斯科诊所的18岁以上的每位患者进行了接触，或通过邮件进行了联系。在总共1249名成年患者中，有962名（77.0%）完成了问卷调查，并接受了睡眠障碍症状的采访。另外292名患者完成了邮寄问卷，总共有1254名参与者参加了这项研究。在我们的样本中，报告以下睡眠障碍症状的患者百分比为失眠（32.3%）、阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停综合征（23.6%）和不宁腿综合征（29.3%）。这项研究表明，在初级保健人群中，需要提高对睡眠障碍的认识，并进行后续的诊断和治疗。
The prevalence of sleep disorders in a primary care physician practice in Moscow, Idaho, was studied between February 7, 1997, and February 6, 1998. This primary care clinic visit population was surveyed for this 1-year period. Every patient above the age of 18 years who visited the Moscow Clinic in this time period was either approached by our on-site researcher during the patient's clinic visit or contacted via mail. Out of a total of 1249 adult patients who met with our on-site researcher during their clinic visit, 962 (77.0%) completed questionnaires and were interviewed for symptoms of sleep disorders. An additional 292 patients completed mailed questionnaires, resulting in a total of 1254 participants in the study. The percentages of patients in our sample reporting symptoms of the following sleep disorders were insomnia (32.3%), obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (23.6%), and restless legs syndrome (29.3%). This study demonstrates the need for heightened awareness and subsequent diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorders in the primary care population.
