Active clinical trials for "Sleep Initiation and Maintenance Disorders"

The purpose of this study is to determine the long-term effects of Ramelteon, once daily (QD), on endocrine function values.

The purpose of this study is to adapt and test the effects of a 4-week behavioral treatment that targets chronic insomnia (lasting >1 month) in service members returning from Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF).

Research has established the incidence of insomnia increases with age and the possible causes contributing to sleep problems in the elderly are still being explored and debated. Older adults use a disproportionately large share of sleep aids with non-prescription sleep aid use having increased over the past decade. This study is a double blind safety and effectiveness trial examining the response of eszopiclone co-administered with escitalopram for the treatment of insomnia symptoms in geriatric depressed adults with insomnia symptoms.

The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of ramelteon, once daily (QD), combined with doxepin in treating subjects with insomnia.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of 4 mg of Ramelteon, once daily (QD), in subjects with chronic insomnia.

The overall goal of this project is to evaluate the evidence for the efficacy of two mindfulness-based interventions, mindfulness-based therapy for insomnia (MBT-I) and mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), for reducing arousal and improving sleep among individuals with psychophysiological insomnia. Specific Aim 1: To obtain evidence for the relative effects of MBT-I and MBSR compared to a delayed-treatment control condition followed by behavior therapy for insomnia (BT-I) on arousal levels. It is hypothesized that MBSR and MBT-I will be superior to the control condition at reducing arousal levels. Specific Aim 2: To obtain evidence for the relative effects of MBT-I, MBSR, and the delayed-treatment control on sleep. It is hypothesized that MBT-I will be superior to the MBSR and control conditions at improving sleep parameters. Specific Aim 3: To investigate the relationship between measures of arousal (self-report and objective measures) and sleep (self-report and objective measures) to enhance the understanding of the role of arousal in psychophysiological insomnia.

The purpose of this study is to investigate and evaluate the efficacy of Eszopiclone in Japanese participants with primary insomnia.

The purpose of this study was to examine if group ear acupuncture improves Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder sleep difficulties among veterans who participated in Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom. This study also examined the degree of veteran acceptance for a group ear acupuncture procedure.

Objective - Type 2 uncontrolled diabetic patients often have low endogenous melatonin and suffer from sleep disorders. The effect of a prolonged-release melatonin (PRM) formulation on glucose lipid metabolism and sleep is studied in type 2 diabetes patients with insomnia.

The current study aims to evaluate the effects of internet-delivered self-help CBT for insomnia through a randomised controlled trial. Adult persons with insomnia will be invited via a popular scientific website to fill out online questionnaires. Participants will be randomised into treatment groups or the waiting list. Participants will be measured 4, 16, and 40 weeks after intervention with the same questionnaires.
