Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether music hearing in the evening before going to sleep can improve sleep quality, depressive symptoms and quality of life in patients with affective disorders.
The study will determine which of two different types of positive airway pressure (PAP therapy) modes are more effective in reducing sleep breathing events in chronic insomnia patients and in decreasing insomnia severity.
The aim of this study is to determine which of two treatments (acupuncture or cognitive behavioral therapy) works better for treating insomnia in cancer survivors. The investigator also wants to study the factors that might impact why someone might prefer or do better in one treatment over the other. Group 1 will get Acupuncture - Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese Technique of using very thin needles inserted in the skin to treat different symptoms and illness, and to promote healing. Group 2 will get Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) - CBT-I is a treatment to address behaviors and thoughts that are known to effect problems with sleep.
The investigators plan to test the effectiveness of warm gel gloves in reducing the time it takes individuals to fall asleep (sleep latency). The investigators will have subjects track their sleep for two-weeks using both sleep logs and a small wristwatch-like monitor called an actigraph to measure the degree of the persons' difficulty falling asleep. It must take at least 30-minutes to fall asleep 3-days per week to qualify for the study. If a subject qualifies, they will wear the heated gel gloves or a placebo non-heated gel glove during sleep for two-weeks and sleep will be measured again using sleep logs and actigraphy. The baseline sleep latency data will be compared to the treatment period using a independent t-test. The investigators believe that wearing the warm gel gloves will reduce sleep latency.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of listening to music on sleep quality (subjective and objective), daytime dysfunction and neurophysiological arousal in patients with insomnia.

The ultimate goal is to facilitate the delivery of empirically supported treatments (ESTs) for mental disorders and to improve client mental health outcomes. Toward this end, this Phase II SBIR proposal seeks to complete the development and testing of PracticeGround, a comprehensive software system designed to integrate with electronic health records, and that contains multiple methods of training clinicians in ESTs and delivering ESTs to clients, continuous progress monitoring of client outcomes, and clinical support tools to guide clinicians and clients through delivery of the necessary EST. The investigators will conduct an 18-week randomized controlled trial (N=80) comparing PracticeGround (n=40) to care-as-usual (n=40) in depressed outpatient clients. PracticeGround clinicians will have full access to the software. Study clinicians and clients will be assessed once every six weeks (baseline, 6, 12, and 18 weeks). To ensure generalizability of findings, the investigators will not control for natural therapy variations (e.g.,session frequency, medication use, etc.). Primary outcomes include: depression, psychological distress, treatment satisfaction (clients and clinicians), and treatment drop out. Secondary clinician outcomes include: extent of PracticeGround use with clients across clinicians' caseload.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect of 6-weekly, 20 minute sessions of 2 online behavioral sleep interventions (cognitive behavioral therapy or healthy sleep habits) on blood pressure, sleep, depressive symptoms and anxiety in people with insomnia and prehypertension or hypertension.
Despite the literature showing cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) to be effective in a variety of populations including postpartum women, as well as the demonstrated harmful consequences of sleep disturbances in late pregnancy, no trials have investigated its efficacy during pregnancy. This project will investigate the efficacy and acceptability of cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) in pregnancy.
