A significant proportion of psychiatric inpatients report elevated levels of physical health symptoms, and greater sleep disturbance is a significant predictor of somatic symptoms severity. The PROMIS® Sleep Disturbance Measure may be a better predictor of physical health symptoms among psychiatric inpatients than the CCSM alone. The PROMIS® Sleep Disturbance Measure may also serve as a useful screening and outcome assessment tool in future clinical and research work among this understudied population. Identifying and intervening with psychiatric inpatients at risk for poor sleep and more severe physical health symptoms has the potential to positively impact patients' hospitalization and postdischarge outcomes.
