Evaluating the Utilisation and Adherence to SEL ICB Guidelines for Daridorexant Prescribing in Chronic Insomnia: Insights from Patients with Insomnia and Severe Mental Illness (SMI)

  • Applicant: Mohamed Fareen
  • Project ID: 25-042

People with severe mental illness often struggle with insomnia, and this project explores whether a new sleep medication, daridorexant, is being prescribed according to NHS guidelines.
The project will review anonymous patient records to see how closely current prescribing matches the guidance and whether outcomes improve in patients with both insomnia and mental illness.

The Clinical Record Interactive Search (CRIS) system is a computer system that allows researchers at the NIHR Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) to carry out research using information from South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust clinical records.
