Target Audience and Goal Statement

This activity is intended for internists, family medicine/primary care clinicians, nurses/nurse practitioners, pharmacists, physician's assistants, and other members of the health care team for older adults with sleep disturbances.

The goal of this activity is for members of the healthcare team, to be better able to describe the association between sleep duration at 50, 60, and 70 years of age and incident multimorbidity, using repeat data on sleep duration and continuous assessment of chronic diseases spanning more than 25 years, and the impact of sleep duration at age 50 years on the natural course of chronic disease, using multistate models to analyze data spanning 25-year follow-up in the Whitehall II cohort study.

Upon completion of this activity, participants will:

  • Assess the association of sleep duration with incidence of a first chronic disease and subsequent multimorbidity and mortality, based on 25-year follow-up of the Whitehall II cohort study of UK civil servants
  • Evaluate the clinical implications of the association of sleep duration with incidence of a first chronic disease and subsequent multimorbidity and mortality, based on 25-year follow-up of the Whitehall II cohort study of UK civil servants
  • Outline implications for the healthcare team
