Utility of the Compensatory Tracking Task for Objective Differentiation of Hypersomnolence in Depression: A High-Density EEG Investigation.


ABSTRACT: Hypersomnolence is a common and debilitating symptom in mood disorders. However, objective differentiation of excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) from non-EDS in depression has not yet been achieved. This study compared performance on the Compensatory Tracking Task (CTT) and concurrently-recorded high-density (hd)EEG theta power in 22 patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and co-occurring EDS against 22 age- and sex-matched patients with MDD but no EDS, as well as 22 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Though depressed hypersomnolent participants endorsed feeling sleepier than depressed non-hypersomnolent and healthy control participants prior to starting the CTT, no group differences in CTT performance were observed. Average hdEEG theta power was higher during periods of high error on the CTT compared to periods of low error, but did not differ between the groups. Though the CTT still holds promise as an objective neurobehavioral measure, these results do not indicate a capability to differentiate EDS from non-EDS in mood disorders.
