Mobile Intervention to Improve Functional Health & Community Engagement of

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Veterans of the most recent wars in Afghanistan and Iraq (collectively, post 9/11 Veterans) have notable sleep problems including chronic insomnia. Here, the investigators plan to compare two groups of veterans with insomnia: (1) one group that completes a 6 week self-management-guided use of a mobile app based on cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTI alone) and (2) one group that completes a 6 week combined self-management-guided use of the mobile CBTI app in addition to a physical activity (PA) intervention (CBTI + PA). The investigators hypothesize that the group receiving the adjunctive 6-week PA intervention will have better subjective and objective sleep, higher step counts, and better functional health and social and community integration than those receiving CBTI alone. This pilot work will provide evidence to guide the design of a future randomized controlled trial.

Clinical Trial Description

To determine if the addition of physical activity (PA) to (CBTI) can further enhance sleep, physical activity, functioning, or social engagement over and above self-management use of a CBTI app alone, the investigators will randomly assign post-9/11 veteran participants with chronic, functionally impairing insomnia to either (1) a self-management-based use of an app based on cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTI; CBTI alone arm) or to (2) a self-management-based use of the CBTI app + a physical activity (PA) intervention (CBTI + PA) that includes PA monitoring (via a Fitbit device) with individualized goal-setting to encourage increased daily steps across the 6 weeks. For the PA goal, the investigators will attempt to get all participants to at least the typical 10,000 daily steps goal cited as a strong predictor of positive health outcomes (Choi, Pak, & Choi, 2007). The investigators will tailor the step goals based on the person's initial level of daily steps, and increment step goals weekly to maximize motivation and enhance the likelihood that the participant can meet the goal. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
