The goal of the study is to examine the role of paroxetine, an antidepressant medication, in the acute and continuation treatment of insomnia. Primary insomnia is a type of insomnia not directly resulting from general medical, chemical, or psychiatric conditions.
This study tests a new kind of sleep study in which subjects are awakened 2 times after initially going to sleep. The study focuses on the EEG signal process as a person goes to sleep. The general hypothesis is that the signal properties are stable from night to night during baseline studies, and are different between controls and patients with primary insomnia. The primary insomnia patients then go on to have about 2 weeks of an insomnia intervention. Then the new kind of study is repeated in the patients. The controls only are examined in baseline studies.
We want to assess whether "how and when" one takes sleep medication results in similar or different outcomes with respect to symptom relief. We also want to know whether taking medication for a period of time provides continued benefit once the medication is stopped.
This study examines how treatment with the drug modafinil, by itself or in combination with cognitive behavioral treatment for insomnia (CBT-I), may improve daytime functioning and/or diminish the severity of insomnia.
Insomnia reduces quality of life, increases risks for other illnesses, and enhances health care costs/utilization. Several efficacy studies have shown that Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for insomnia improves sleep and diurnal complaints among highly screened samples; however, its effectiveness among �real-world� primary care patients is yet to be tested. This project is highly relevant to the VA health care mission, given the high prevalence of insomnia in middle-aged and older adults. Pilot data from this VA suggest that 40% of primary care patients report trouble sleeping.
