Abstract

Objective: Bright light therapy is effective and well tolerated in seasonal affective disorder and some studies reported an antidepressant effect of bright light also in non-seasonal depression. On the other hand, total sleep deprivation leads to a rapid and marked improvement of mood in 60% of depressed patients. Combinations of antidepressant medication with those somatic therapies are generally indicated. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of the combination of sertraline and partial sleep deprivation or light therapy with sertraline monotherapy in the treatment of major depression. Method: Thirty-seven patients with major depressive disorder were randomly allocated into 3 treatment groups. Thirteen were treated with sertraline and late partial sleep deprivation, 13 with sertraline and bright light therapy and 11 sertaline monotherapy as a control group. Outcome measures included daily (first 15 days) and weekly Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression and biweekly Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale. Results: Partial sleep deprivation group improved significantly and more rapidly. Accelerated treatment response was shown in sleep deprivation group that improvement was observed after the third day. Bright light and sleep deprivation combinations with sertraline were more effective than sertraline monotherapy for accompanied anxiety in depression. Conclusion: Late partial sleep deprivation in combination with sertraline can accelerate and increase the treatment response in non-seasonal major depressive disorder.

Özet

Amaç: Parlak ışık tedavisi mevsimsel özellikli depresyonda etkin ve iyi tolere edilen bir tedavi şeklidir ve mevsimsel olmayan depresyonda da etkili olduğu bildirilmiştir. Uyku yoksunluğu tedavisi, uygulamaların % 60’ında majör depresyonda hızlı ve etkin bir tedavi sağlamaktadır. Diğer yandan genellikle somatik tedavilerle birlikte ilaç tedavilerinin kullanılması gerekli olmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı sertralinle birlikte uyku yoksunluğu ve ışık tedavisi kombinasyonlarının etkinliğinin sertralin tedavisi ile karşılaştırılmasıdır. Yöntem: Majör depresyonu olan 37 hasta 3 gruba ayrılarak tedaviye alındı. On üç hasta sertralin ve geç kısmi uyku yoksunluğu, 13 hasta sertralin ve parlak ışık tedavisi ve 11 hasta da sertralin tedavisi ile izlendi. Değerlendirmeler günlük ve haftalık Hamilton Depresyon Ölçeği ve iki haftalık Hamilton Anksiyete Ölçeği ile yapıldı. Bulgular: Uyku yoksunluğu grubu daha çabuk ve daha etkin olarak depresyon puanlarında düşüş gösterdi. Uyku yoksunluğu grubundaki hızlı tedavi yanıtı tedavinin 3. gününden itibaren gözlendi. Hem uyku yoksunluğu ve hem de ışık tedavisi gruplarında anksiyete düzeyleri üzerinde kontrol grubuna göre daha üstün bir tedavi etkinliği elde edildi. Sonuç: Uyku yoksunluğu tedavisi sertralinle birlikte uygulandığında tedavi etkinliğini artırmada ve hızlı tedavi başlangıcı sağlamada mevsimsel olmayan majör depresyonda etkin bir şekilde kullanılabilir.
