This ANZSSA plenary session was recorded during Sleep DownUnder 2024. It discusses how to characterise insomnia, a disorder that is complex and multifaceted. What are the challenges of measuring objective sleep disturbance and subjective symptomatology in insomnia? How can we implement knowledge of the neurobiology of insomnia to optimise best practices for patient care? What is the best way to approach comorbid insomnia management?
