The design of this study was observational research with a consecutive sampling method consisting of intervention and control groups 12 people each. This research was conducted for two months, April–May 2019, at Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital and its network. Patients were given a 30-min behavioral intervention. Insomnia severity was measured by the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) before and after an intervention. There was a significant decrease in the ISI score intervention group (p < 0.001), where the mean of ISI score before and after the intervention was 19 ± 3.46 and 7.17 ± 3.30, respectively. Moreover, for the control group (p = 0.043), the mean of ISI is 13.83 ± 3.51 and 15.17 ± 4.57 after two weeks of follow-up. There was a significant decrease of ISI scores in the intervention group compared to controls (p < 0.001). Behavioral intervention has a significant effect on improving the severity of post-stroke insomnia. ## Keywords - Insomnia - Medicine - Stroke (engine) - Intervention (counseling) - Physical therapy - Observational study - Psychological intervention - Internal medicine - Psychiatry - Engineering - Mechanical engineering --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
