Insufficient sleep can lead to problems with cognitive function, mood disturbances, decreased energy which can further impair occupational performance and quality of life.

Using the definition supported by the DSM IV, this pathology is defined as the compliant of difficulty initiating or maintaining sleep, early awakening, and interrupted or non-restorative sleep. Additionally, nighttime symptoms are accompanied by clinically significant impairment in daytime function, for which no identifiable cause i.e. psychiatric disorder, medical condition is attributed by.
