Filter by:Background: The prevalence of comorbid insomnia is 8-10 times higher in patients with chronic pain than in the general population. Insomnia adds a considerable burden as it worsens the quality of life, restoration and repair, mental health and pain symptoms. Since pain and sleep problems are mutually reinforcing, improvements in sleep may have beneficial effects on pain. Unfortunately, the customary use of sleep medication (TAU: treatment-as-usual) often yields short-lived plus side effects. The "Sleep-Well" intervention examines if a group-based intervention program focusing on sleep literacy, sleep restriction, stimulus control and metacognitive therapy modules may perform better than TAU in improving patients' insomnia and sleep quality. Eligible patients: Investigators target adult patients referred to the University Hospital of North Norway (Tromsø) for a diagnostic evaluation of their pain condition. Patients eligible for the Sleep-Well study are those who satisfy diagnostic criteria for a non-malign pain disorder plus a comorbid insomnia sleep disorder. Patients are not eligible if they use drugs or large doses of morphine (>100 equivalents), are engaged in an insurance case due to their diagnosis, or participate in other ongoing group programs at the hospital. Aims: This trial uses a randomized semi-crossover design to examine if the Sleep-Well group does better regarding insomnia and sleep quality than the control patients (TAU). The primary outcome measures are reductions in diagnostic criteria for insomnia, self-reported insomnia symptoms, quality of life, and actigraphy-measured insomnia indicators (long sleep onset latency, frequent nightly awakenings and early morning awakening). The secondary outcome measures include a simplified polysomnography measurement of brain activity during sleep to assess if proportions or durations of slow-wave versus light-wave sleep and EEG-based arousal indices improve. In addition, it is examined if the Sleep-Well intervention incurs benefits concerning pain complaints, dysfunctional sleep and pain cognitions, anxiety and depression. The intervention: The Sleep-Well program schedules group sessions that cover four topics (sleep literacy, behavioural and mental strategies, maintenance and relapse prevention). All sessions are led by two therapists. Those randomized to the active control group (TAU) cross over to the Sleep-Well intervention three months later.
Children with Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) are at risk for insomnia, arousal dysfunction, mood problems, and noncompliance. Cognitive behavioral treatment for insomnia (CBT-I) holds promise for improving insomnia and related concerns. Telehealth delivery will reduce the burden of in-person sessions, particularly in areas where there is low mental healthcare access. Telehealth CBT-I is efficacious in adults and children but has not been tested in children with ODD. The proposed trial is the next logical step - development and iterative testing of SLEEP-COPE, a brief dyadic telehealth CBT-I for children with ODD and their parents.
Individuals who have insomnia with short sleep duration (ISS) differ from individuals who have insomnia with normal sleep duration (INS) in terms of health risks (i.e., hypertension) and treatment response. This study will examine whether patients with ISS and INS demonstrate a differential response to two common insomnia treatments. One is behavioral, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I). The other is a widely prescribed, non-habit-forming medication, trazodone used at a low dose. The investigators' findings could lead to evidence-based treatment guidelines that help clinicians more effectively match treatments to insomnia patients and reduce associated health problems.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about insomnia treatment among primary care patients with chronic insomnia. The main question it aims to answer is: • Does Sleep School (a therapy for insomnia) work well to decrease harm of insomnia? Participants will attend a group therapy intervention once a week for six weeks. Researchers will compare Sleep School to treatment as usual (short counselling by an educated nurse) to see if the Sleep School works better than treatment as usual in decreasing the harm of insomnia.
The primary aim of this Real-World Evidence trial is to establish whether short-term (2 weeks) treatment of Chloral Hydrate is effective in patients with severe insomnia which is interfering with normal daily life, and where other behavioural and pharmacologic therapies have failed in a real world setting.
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is common, deadly, and costly, and adults with insomnia represent a large group of people at elevated risk of developing CVD in the future. This clinical trial will determine if our updated insomnia treatment, called the SHADES intervention, improves CVD factors thought to explain how insomnia promotes CVD and if these improvements are due to positive changes in sleep factors. A total of 200 primary care patients with insomnia and CVD risk factors will be randomized to 6 months of the SHADES intervention (internet, telephonic, and/or face-to-face cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia) or the active control condition (sleep education/hygiene, symptom monitoring, and primary care for insomnia). Before and after treatment, participants will complete measurements of the CVD factors (systemic inflammation, autonomic dysfunction, metabolic dysregulation, proinflammatory gene expression) and the sleep factors (insomnia symptoms, sleep onset latency, wake after sleep onset, sleep efficiency). Researchers will test whether the SHADES intervention produces greater improvements in the CVD factors than the active control condition.
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic represented a global public health problem that brought considerable consequences to the physical and mental health of the entire population. Objective: To compare the effectiveness of the brief behavioral intervention for insomnia by teleconsultation (BBII-TC) with the brief behavioral intervention for face-to-face insomnia (BBII) on symptoms of insomnia, anxiety, depression, quality of sleep and life in a sample. of patients with long COVID. Methodology: Randomized controlled trial of equivalence with two groups in parallel (1:1) with repeated measures in pretreatment, posttreatment and follow-up at 3 months. The sample will be composed of male or female participants, in an age range of 18 to 40 years. The sample size was calculated, obtaining a total of 52 participants, the expected effect size is .40, with a significance of 0.05 and a probability error of 80%. Participants in the two groups will be assessed with the following instruments: Sleep Diary, Patient Health Questionnaire 9, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index , Insomnia Severity Index, SF-36 Health Survey and Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7; at the beginning and end of treatment; and in a follow-up at 3 months. TData analysis: The Kolmogrov-Smirnov test will be carried out to determine the normality of the data, in case the distribution is parametric, an ANOVA of repeated measures will be carried out for the comparison of data between the pre, post and monitoring for each of the groups; in the event that the data does not have a normal distribution, the Friedman test will be performed for the comparison of repeated measures. Finally, to avoid bias in the data analysis, an external investigator will be asked to perform the randomization and data processing.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about The safety and efficacy of fecal microbiota transplantation in patients with chronic insomnia disorder. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - Safety of the FMT oral capsule pathway in the clinical treatment of chronic insomnia - Effectiveness of the FMT oral capsule route for patients with chronic insomnia Participants in the intervention group will be given FMT by boral capsule pathway, and in the control group will be given the same appearance capsules containing vitamins. Researchers will compare the sleep status(PSQI and PSG)of the patients in both groups.
Sleep disruption is common among young adult cancer survivors for a variety of reasons. Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) has been shown to improve chronic sleep disorders. This project will test the feasibility and acceptability of a new voice-activated virtual assistant (VAVA) device to deliver CBT-I to improve sleep among young adult cancer survivors with chronic sleep disorders.
This is a randomized controlled trial that intends to verify the effectiveness of the daily practice of meditation before going to sleep for the improvement of sleep, stress, mental health and quality of life of people with sleep problems.
