Clinical Trial Summary

Clinical Trial Description

Adolescence is a vulnerable period for the emergence of insomnia, which affects more than 10% of the youths (approximately 40% if based on symptoms). Insomnia in youths tends to run a protracted course and is associated with numerous negative outcomes including poor quality of life, cognitive and academic impairment, and predisposing to development of depression and anxiety. The burden arises from insomnia has been increasingly recognized worldwide as a debilitating and costly public health concern. However, insomnia in youths is often ignored and under-treated, with only 10% of the local youths recognized their insomnia problem and none of them has received the recommended first-line treatment - cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I). Given the high prevalence, chronicity and long-lasting health-related consequences of insomnia, together with the delay and limited help-seeking behavior, it calls the urgent need for early insomnia prevention and intervention in this vulnerable population. Thus, this study aims to conduct a randomized controlled trial in comparing cognitive behavioral insomnia prevention program with the active control group in youths who are at risk of insomnia and to explore the effect of prevention program in preventing the incidence of insomnia problems. ;
