Abstract Objectives: To explore the clinical effects of self-acupressure for treating insomnia delivered by a training course. Hypothesis: Subjects who have participated in the self-acupressure training course will have greater improvement in insomnia symptoms and daytime impairment than the sleep hygiene education control group at 4 and 8 weeks. Design and subjects: A pilot randomized controlled trial. Subjects with insomnia will be recruited from the community. 30 subjects will be randomized to self-acupressure and sleep hygiene education control 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 self-acupressure group will attend two training sessions to learn self-acupressure and will practice self-acupressure every night for 4 weeks; subjects in the sleep hygiene education control group will receive two training sessions to learn sleep hygiene practice. Main outcome measures: The primary outcome measure is the ISI score. Other measures include sleep parameters using subjective sleep diary, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, and SF-6D at 4 and 8 weeks. Acceptability and sustainability of self-acupressure will also be evaluated. Data Analysis: Differences in the questionnaire scores, subjective sleep parameters will be examined using a mixed-effects model.

Group 3: Subjects will receive a combined approach (LAT plus MAT). The treatment will be delivered 3 times/week, with a 6-week treatment period, on seven specific auricular points. Main outcome measures Sleep conditions and quality of life will be evaluated at baseline; end of 6-week treatment; and at 6-week, 12-week, and 6-month follow-up periods. Data analysis Descriptive statistics, chi-square analysis, ANOVA, paired t-test, and mixed effect modeling will be conducted as appropriate. Expected results This study would advance our knowledge the optimum treatment protocol of AT in the improvement of the sleep conditions of the elderly population.
