Filter by:Insomnia is a common sleep disorder for patients with depression. This has a major impact on the quality of life for the individual. The aim is to investigate, whether music intervention is effective in 1. improving sleep quality, 2. reducing symptoms of depression and 3. improving quality of life Participants use a sound pillow and selected music in the The Music Star app at home as a sleep aid in 4 weeks.
The aim of this trial is to investigate the effects of a single bout of aerobic exercise on sleep in patients with depression.
The purpose of this study is to compare a short, behavioral treatment for insomnia with sleep monitoring to determine whether these approaches are effective in reducing insomnia and improving sleep quality among patients with heart failure (HF). This study will also examine the relationship between insomnia and cognitive functioning in HF and the effects of the behavioral treatment on cognitive functioning, self-care, distress, HF symptoms, and functional status. Participants will be randomly assigned to four-sessions of a behavioral treatment (Brief Behavioral Treatment for Insomnia; BBTI) or sleep monitoring.
This is a pilot study. The Investigators propose a pilot randomized, parallel-group, controlled trial comparing the GoToSleep program (GTS) and controls on change in Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) from baseline to week 8 in adults with epilepsy and moderate-to-severe insomnia. Adults with epilepsy and moderate-to-severe insomnia symptoms (ISI ≥15) 17 will be identified using data collected as part of routine clinical care in the adult epilepsy clinic. All subjects will be provided a consent form describing the study and provided sufficient information to make an informed decision. After a screening visit, subjects meeting study criteria will be randomized to the computerized cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CCBT-i) using the GoTosleep (GTS) or the control group. Both groups will receive a sleep hygiene handout that is standard of care in the treatment of insomnia. All subjects will be contacted by phone every 2 weeks during the intervention to address questions related to sleep hygiene instructions and use of the CCBT-i in the GoTosleep (GTS) group. All subjects will complete a series of sleep related patient reported outcomes including the ISI at baseline 8 weeks post randomization and maintain a diary recording of seizures and sleep periods. Those randomized to CCBT-i will complete a questionnaire at week 8 assessing barriers to CCBT-i. Subjects randomized to the control group will be offered access to the GoTosleep (GTS) at no charge at the end of the study (week 8).
This project aims to evaluate the efficacy of insomnia treatment in improving insomnia symptoms and alcohol-related problems among heavy-drinking young adults.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether non-deceptive application of a placebo has an impact on subjective or objective sleep parameters in patients with primary insomnia.
Black women are at a higher risk of developing insomnia than other women and insomnia has profound adverse physical and psychological health consequences. There is an internet-delivered treatment program for insomnia that has been shown to be effective in White individuals but there is little evidence of the effectiveness of this treatment among Black women. The goal of this study is to conduct a comparative effectiveness trial of three online insomnia therapies after a 6 month follow-up period--a cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) called SHUTi (Sleep Healthy Using the Internet), SHUTi modified for Black women (SHUTi-BWHS), and patient education (PE) (usual treatment). This study aims to provide the much needed evidence to help Black women make informed decisions regarding treatment for their insomnia.
Prior research studies have shown benefit for use of a technique called High-resolution, relational, resonance-based, electroencephalic mirroring (HIRREM®), to reduce symptoms of moderate to severe insomnia. HIRREM uses scalp sensors to monitor brain electrical activity, and software algorithms translate selected brain frequencies into audible tones in real time. Those tones (acoustic stimulation) are reflected back to participants via ear buds in as little as four milliseconds, providing the brain an opportunity to self-adjust and balance its electrical pattern. The purpose of this research study is to determine the effects of HIRREM-SOP, an updated version of this technology that is based on the HIRREM approach, but now includes new hardware and software, a standardized series of HIRREM protocols, and a fixed number of sessions. Adults over the age of 18 who have documented sleep trouble that place them in the category of subthreshold (mild), moderate, or severe clinical insomnia as defined by the Insomnia Severity Index, are eligible to participate in the study.
This plan will be implemented on the staff of the Qazvin University of Medical Sciences. The Insomnia Severity Index questionnaire will be used to screen for insomnia and low sleep health. This questionnaire is provided online to the staff through communication channels such as telegrams to help people who are interested in participating in this research. Individuals who scored more than 8 were randomly assigned to intervention and control groups and completed the Insomnia Index Index. The intervention group will then receive an app-based educational intervention designed to improve sleep hygiene. Control group: Participants in the control group perform routine activities. The intervention and control group will fill out the relevant questionnaire one and three and six months after the completion of the training to assess the impact of the intervention online.
There is a strong association between insomnia and suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Insomnia also frequently co-occurs with other common conditions associated with suicide such as depression and posttraumatic stress disorder. This project focuses on improving sleep as a novel suicide prevention strategy that can be delivered to a broad range of Veterans. The study will examine how Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia, an efficacious treatment for insomnia, may reduce suicidal thoughts in Veterans who also suffer from co-occurring conditions when delivered by integrated primary care clinicians.
