S2E8 - Brief Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia in Adults

Welcome to Season 2 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive!

This episode breaks down Brief Behavioural Therapy for Insomnia (BBTI)—the high-yield, NHMRC Level 2 evidence-based approach examiners prioritise. Learn to counsel patients on sleep hygiene, stimulus control (bed is for sleep and sex only!), and the essential 2-week sleep diary. We explain the "Sleep Restriction" formula: average sleep time plus 30 minutes. Crucially, master the safety screening to avoid critical errors: ruling out bipolar disorder (to prevent mania), OSA, and advising drivers about initial sleep deprivation.
