Filter by:Introduction. Sleep problems are a health issue worldwide. Based on the Person-Environment-Occupation-Performance model and the theory of occupational balance, we developed an occupation-based sleep program to address several objectives by lifestyle intervention: 1) minimize the influence of bodily function on sleep; 2) promote an environment conductive to sleep; and 3) restructure daytime activity with a focus on occupational balance through psychoeducation and lifestyle coaching. Method. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an occupation-based sleep intervention on sleep pattern, mood, and occupational balance among community-dwelling adults with insomnia when compared with other, more usual, forms of treatment, typically focused on education, sleep hygiene, and relaxation. A total of 42 subjects were recruited: 22 for the intervention group and 20 for the treatment as usual group.
This project will examine changes in metabolism and depressive symptoms after receiving CBT-I in 30 subjects with insomnia disorder and MDD.
It has been hypothesized that exercise may have a beneficial effect on sleep quality and insomnia severity in those who have insomnia symptoms as well as those who meet diagnostic criteria for insomnia disorder (e.g., Diagnostic and Statistical Manual 5th edition (DSM-5)). Yet, the studies that have tested this are extremely limited in number and even fewer explore any acute effects of exercise training on subjects who meet diagnostic criteria. Thus, the investigators propose to conduct a randomized parallel design to compare the effects of short-term moderate-intensity aerobic exercise on insomnia severity and measures of sleep in a sample of adults who meet diagnostic criteria for insomnia.
This randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a longitudinal mixed-method process evaluation aims to (1) determine the effectiveness of a ZTEx intervention program, which is a lifestyle-integrated physical activity program, on sleep and related outcomes in inactive adults with insomnia disorder
This is a proof-of-concept pilot nested in the RCT titled, 'Zero-time Exercise on Inactive Adults With Insomnia Disorder'. It aims to evaluate the effects of a simple WhatsApp intervention on exercise adherence and on sleep and related outcomes.
Objectives: To evaluate the clinical effects of Zero-Time Exercise (ZTEx) for treating insomnia disorder delivered by a training course. Hypothesis: Subjects in the ZTEx training group will have greater improvement in insomnia symptoms and daytime impairment than those in the sleep hygiene education (SHE) group at week 8. Design and subjects: A randomized controlled trial. 32 inactive subjects with insomnia disorder recruited from the community will be randomized to ZTEx training or SHE groups in a 1: 1 ratio. Study instrument: Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) will be used to assess insomnia symptoms and daytime impairment. Interventions: Subjects in the ZTEx training group will attend two training lessons (2-hour each) to learn ZTEx and practice it every night for 8 weeks; subjects in the SHE group will receive sleep hygiene education with the schedule and duration that are same to the ZTEx training group. Main outcome measures: The primary outcome measure is the ISI score. Other measures include sleep parameters by subjective sleep diary and objective actigraphy, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory-20 and Short Form-6 Dimension. Acceptability and compliance of ZTEx will be evaluated. Data Analysis: Differences in the questionnaire scores, subjective and objective sleep parameters will be examined using a mixed-effects model.
The primary objective of the proposed research is to determine the efficacy of Digital Cognitive Behavior Therapy (dCBTI) in reducing severity of depression and also in preventing the incidence and relapse of depression among insomniacs. In addition, we will identify salient sociological/environmental variables, such as age, sex, education, socioeconomic status (SES), racial/ethnic minority-status, work schedule, child-care responsibilities (i.e., having children under the age of 3), stigma, that moderate the effects of this intervention.
