【摘要】
本病例報告之患者因個性本易緊張焦慮,又投資失利導致情志不遂,進而產生失眠的症狀,因此前來中醫門診就診,經中醫四診及分析後,歸納為情志因素所致,經診察後給予中醫藥物治療,其睡眠狀況遂得改善。失眠,又稱為「不寐」,或稱為不得眠、不得臥,「失眠」一詞,首見於唐.王燾《外臺秘要》,而相關症狀之典籍記載則首見於《內經》,如《素問.診要經終論》:「冬刺春分,病不已,令人欲臥不能眠,眠而有見。」《傷寒六書》:「陽勝陰虛,則晝夜不得眠。若陰為陽所勝,故終夜煩擾不得眠也。」。失眠之證型有虛實之分,虛證包括心脾兩虛、心膽氣虛、心腎不交等等,多為氣血不足,神失所養所致;實證有肝鬱化火、痰熱內擾、宿食停滯等等,然而實證日久也可能轉為虛證,進而形成虛實夾雜之候。匹茲堡睡眠品質量表(Pittsburgh sleep quality index, PSQI)是目前國際上公認信度較高也最被廣泛使用之睡眠品質評量表,其內容可用來評估患者的睡眠狀態與睡眠品質,本病例中使用匹茲堡睡眠品質量表來評估患者的睡眠狀況,作為治療用藥之參考,並於治療後用以評估中藥治療之療效。
