Abstract
An epidemiologic approach to the involutive general population was made to detect patients and risk group of insomnia. The survey was carried out in one health area of Oviedo, during the winter of 1990. A total of 329 elderly persons were interviewed, and three questionnaires were used: the G.H.Q., MMSE and a questionnaire "ad hoc". In the study, sleep disorders were correlated with level of general health (Golberg) and cognitive impairment (MMSE).
