Filter by:Through the recruition of outpatients who clinically meet the diagnostic criteria and inclusion criteria of PI, the acupuncture group adopts Tiaoshen acupuncture, and the placebo acupuncture group adopts non-insertive acupuncture supported by the Park device, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) is used as the main index to evaluate the patients through the scale; subjective indicators like Chalder 14-item fatigue scale, Epworth sleepiness rating, self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), self-rating depression scale (SDS) and objective indicators like polysomnography (PSG), heart rate variability (HRV) is regarded as a secondary index, and then evaluate the clinical efficacy of Tiaoshen acupuncture on PI and explore its mechanism.

Digital cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (dCBT-i) is found to be effective but is rarely used in China. Hence, the investigators developed an automated Chinese dCBT-i program and examined its feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness in individuals with insomnia symptoms.
Moderate to vigorous physical activity can reduce symptoms of mental disorders like major depression, anxiety disorders, insomnia, and ADHD. However, in Germany there are no group therapeutical exercise programs for psychotherapy patients in an outpatient context. The current study aims to examine the effectiveness of a manualized exercise program, named ImPuls, which consists of a supervised and non-supervised endurance training in moderate to vigorous intensity and behaviour change techniques.
This study compares the efficacy of four different types (Cognitive Behavior Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I); Focus of Attention (FOA); Combined CBT-I and FOA; and Sleep Hygiene (control group) for the treatment of insomnia. This study is a randomized, open label study, and the participants are asked to assess the benefits they get from the intervention. This study involve 6 weekly in person one-to-one sessions after screening and completion of the 1-week, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month follow-up assessment. The trained study staff will administering the treatment. The Research Department will administer the outcome measures. The review of insomnia improvement will be assessed at at end of treatment, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months follow-up.
The purpose of the study is to assess the effects of regular Viniyoga in patients suffering from primary insomnia.
To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of neuromodulation by transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in the patients with primary chronic insomnia .
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.
With primary insomnia as the research object, by the method of multi-center RCT and needle single cavity and different acupoints compatibility treatment for primary insomnia, to Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI) and evaluation, sleep log evaluation and Polysomnogram(PSG) as the means, such as the single cavity with different acupoints compatibility evaluate clinical curative effect of treating primary insomnia.
Insomnia is a significant problem affecting 10 to 20% of US population. Long-term pharmacological treatments are not recommended due to side effects, with therapy and sleep hygiene education often employed as alternatives. Use of mind-body approaches for insomnia is increasing. One of the most promising mind-body approaches for alleviating sleep problems is hypnosis. Research indicates significant beneficial effects of hypnosis on sleep, but sleep was rarely assessed as primary outcome and studied populations were diverse. Further, it remains unclear who the best candidates for benefitting from hypnosis are. To address some of the gaps in the current knowledge, the study evaluates whether 1) an addition of hypnotic suggestion for sleep improvement to the optimizing sleep hygiene (OSH) program increases the effectiveness of the OSH using objective and subjective assessments and 2) determines characteristics associated with hypnotic responsiveness.To address these goals a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with 3 laboratory visits (baseline, intervention, and 1 month follow-up) will be conducted with 50 adults meeting criteria for primary insomnia and allocated to one the two groups: 1) experimental group receiving during the intervention visit a combination of the Optimizing Sleep Hygiene (OSH) program and a hypnosis session for sleep improvement and 2) a control group receiving at the intervention visit the OSH only. Hypnosis session for sleep improvement for the control group will be offered at the end of the follow-up study visit (conducted after 4 weeks post-intervention) after completing all follow-up measures. Each study visit will last for 2-3 hours. During the visits sleep, personality traits and daily function of the participants will be assessed. Further, after the baseline and one week before the follow-up visit subjects will wear a watch-like actigraphic device monitoring their sleep patterns at home and will complete sleep diary. The knowledge gained from this study will inform the literature and clinicians about usefulness of hypnosis for insomnia sufferers and will help identify the population of insomnia sufferers most likely benefit from use of hypnosis for sleep
