Clinical information

There are two types of insomnia: primary insomnia and secondary insomnia.

Primary insomnia is often idiopathic (meaning it just happens and the cause is unknown) or is related to stress over something.

Secondary insomnia is caused by identifiable physical and mental health disorders, like depression or chronic pain.

In the case of this ICD-10 code, the insomnia falls under secondary insomnia because it is being caused by a mental health disorder.

To diagnose secondary insomnia, healthcare providers and professionals will refer to their most updated copies of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders and International Classification of Sleep Disorders. They will base their examinations on the criteria set by both. They can also conduct Actigraphy and Polysomnography tests to check.

Once an official diagnosis has been made, the provider can treat the problem through cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and propose making lifestyle changes (it can be as simple as taking a hot bath before bedtime, cutting down on caffeinated drinks, cutting down on alcohol, etc.).
