Summary

Sleep impairments reliably predict worsened chronic pain and correlate with visual analogue pain scores. Therapies targeted at improving sleep, including cognitive behavioral therapy, improve both sleep quality and also pain management, and reduce interference of pain with daily activities. As effective pain relief decreases sleep disturbances, improvement in sleep has been proposed as marker of effective pain management. Hence it is useful to evaluate sleep disturbances in chronic pain population both in clinical and research setting. There are many tools to evaluate sleep quality; the routinely used simple brief pain inventory (BPI) has a single question about sleep. We will compare three dedicated sleep measures to the BPI in patients with chronic pain.
