| Abstract | Behavioral sleep medicine (BSM) has recently emerged as a subspecialty area within the broader field of sleep medicine. Certain commonly used treatment approaches in BSM were first pioneered in the 1930s, and this article traces the developments within BSM to current practice. Important innovations include the expansion of BSM beyond the treatment of insomnia to include treatment of pediatric sleep disorders, circadian rhythm disorders, parasomnias, as well as desensitization procedures for patients undergoing treatment with nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). |
