NCT ID: NCT05457790 Recruiting - Insomnia Clinical Trials

Feasibility and Preliminary Efficacy of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for Sleep Disturbances in Adults With Sickle Cell Disease (SCD)

Start date: May 3, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Research Type: Clinical Trial Background: People with sickle cell disease (SCD) have many health challenges. Also, they often have trouble sleeping. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) might help people with SCD to improve their sleep problems. Objective: To see how well ACT works in people with SCD and sleep problems and to find out how they feel about it. Eligibility: People between the ages of 18 and 55 with SCD and trouble sleeping. Design: The study is remote. Participants will not have to come to the NIH at all. They will need a device that has Bluetooth and can connect to the internet. Some participants will be in the study for 12 weeks. Others will participate for 20 weeks. Participants will video chat with an ACT coach once a week for 8 weeks. The coach will guide participants through mindfulness exercises and teach ACT ideas. Each session lasts about 45 minutes. Participants will be loaned an actigraph, a device worn on the wrist like a watch that measures and records movement. They will download a free app to upload data from the actigraph for the researchers. Participants will wear the actigraph on their nondominant wrist day and night for either 4 or 6 designated weeks. During these weeks, participants will complete a sleep diary each morning when they wake up. This takes about 2 minutes. Participants will be sent other surveys to complete from home during the study. They will answer questions about their physical and emotional health. These take 20-25 minutes. The last survey will be 4 weeks after participants finish the ACT treatment. They will answer questions about how helpful they thought ACT was and how easy or hard it was to wear the actigraph.

NCT ID: NCT04210895 Completed - Nonorganic Insomnia Clinical Trials

Efficacy of Footbaths With Ginger Powder on Subjectively Perceived Quality of Sleep

Start date: January 7, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

A randomized, controlled trial to explore whether warm footbaths with added ginger powder can improve the sleep quality of adults with self-perceived insomnia symptoms. Participants receive daily footbaths either with warm water alone or with added ginger powder over a period of 2 weeks.

NCT ID: NCT02694003 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Neurodevelopmental Disorders

Better Nights, Better Days for Children With Neurodevelopment Disorders

BNBD-NDD
Start date: June 10, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

More than 90% of children with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD) experience sleep problems, whereas less than 25% of typically developing children experience sleep problems. Poor sleep can have significant consequences for children's physical and psychosocial health, as well their caregivers' well-being. The impact of sleep problems on daytime functioning is even greater in children with NDD. Although there are a range of factors that may disturb sleep in children with NDD, the most frequent cause of sleep disturbance is behavioural insomnia. There is some evidence that behavioural interventions can be effective in improving sleep in children with NDD. However, this has not been tested through well-designed, large-scale randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Moreover, there are a number of significant barriers to access for insomnia treatment for children; most importantly, sleep interventions are often only provided by specialists, limiting access to treatment services. Instead, behavioural insomnia is often treated with advice about sleep hygiene and with the supplement melatonin, which is, at best, a short-term solution. The investigators, an interdisciplinary team of researchers, will develop and evaluate the effectiveness of an online sleep intervention that will be widely accessible and sustainable and will have the potential to dramatically improve the health of children with NDD and their families.

NCT ID: NCT02243501 Recruiting - Primary Insomnia Clinical Trials

Better Nights, Better Days for Typically Developing Children

BNBD
Start date: September 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Up to 25% of children suffer from sleep problems categorized as "insomnia": difficulty settling, falling asleep, and staying asleep. This leads to daytime sleepiness and negatively effects behaviour, mood, and academic performance. It also has negative effects on primary caregiver's sleep and their daytime functioning. Despite robust evidence supporting the efficacy of behavioural treatments for insomnia in children, very few receive these treatments. The most common treatment for insomnia in children is medication. This pattern of care is troubling because there are no approved medications for insomnia in children, and there are concerns about the safety and side effects of these medications. One of the primary reasons for the low rate of evidence-based treatment is the shortage of available treatment resources for both parents and health care providers. When evidence-based treatments are available, they are usually provided in a traditional service delivery framework. These traditional approaches are often very difficult for parents to access due to scheduling conflicts, incidental costs, and travel difficulties. Thus, there is a critical need for access to effective interventions focused on insomnia for children, and increased knowledge for parents and health care providers about appropriate treatments for insomnia. The Better Nights, Better Days (BNBD) program will provide a potential solution to one of the most common treatment barriers: access to care. BNBD will provide a readily accessible distance treatment via the internet, to increase access to evidence-based care for insomnia in typically developing children aged 1 to 10. BNBD was developed based on evidence-based programs and extant literature. The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) in which participants (primary caregivers of children ages 1 to 10 years with insomnia) will be assigned to Intervention or Usual Care based on a 1-to-1 allocation. The effects of this behavioural sleep intervention will be assessed at 4 and 8 months post baseline assessment. Assessment will include both sleep and daytime functioning of the children, and daytime functioning of their caregivers. This study aligns with the recognized need to more rapidly transfer new scientific knowledge to improve patient care and population health, and targets the validation of new treatment delivery models to increase availability of effective treatment.
