Active clinical trials for "Sleep Initiation and Maintenance Disorders"

In this study we are testing 2 different forms of sleep therapy to help people with insomnia and depression. As part of the study, you receive 1 of these 2 sleep therapies. We want to see how these sleep therapies help insomnia in people with depression.

The investigators will conduct a randomized, controlled trial of internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (iCBT) vs usual care for insomnia. The target population is patients prescribed medications for insomnia who have not had a dispensation of these medications in the preceding six months. The primary outcomes is dispensed days supply over the subsequent one year. Secondary outcomes include all types of health system clinical encounters. The investigators hypothesize that the group randomized into iCBT will have less insomnia medications dispensed than usual care controls, and less clinical encounters..

Women with breast cancer who report insomnia that started or worsened during breast cancer diagnosis and treatment will be enrolled in a group behavioral trial to one of two arms testing cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia against a mindfulness-based therapy.

Insomnia is major problem among Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF), Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF), and Operation New Dawn (OND) Veterans. Insomnia impacts physical and mental health functioning and is associated with reduced quality of life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) is one of the most promising treatments for insomnia; however, access to CBT-I is severely limited by a lack of trained clinicians within the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) and Department of Defense (DoD). There is a critical need to offer innovative approaches to meet the demand and need for insomnia treatment. Leveraging technology to meet treatment demands is consistent with service delivery models based upon stepped care principles. This randomized controlled trial will determine whether a computerized, self-guided, web-based version of CBT-I is efficacious in reducing insomnia symptoms and improving functioning compared to a computerized program control.

Insomnia can be a chronic problem that leads to significant daytime fatigue, stress and numerous negative health consequences including depression. Advanced Medical Electronics, in partnership with researchers are the University of Pennsylvania, propose developing an innovative, non-drug, low-risk, intervention that can be implemented on mobile devices for the treatment of insomnia.

The purpose of this project is to evaluate an Internet-based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (ICBT) for bereaved parents with insomnia. Participants are randomized to either a therapist guided ICBT or to an active control who receives written information on sleep, insomnia, and sleep hygiene. The primary purpose is to evaluate changes in insomnia severity for treatment compared control, after treatment and at 9 and 18 months follow up. A secondary purpose is to evaluate changes in symptoms of complicated grief and depression.

The proposed study will consist of a randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing a known efficacious treatment for insomnia (CBT-I) to a sleep hygiene (SH) comparison condition.

Sleep disturbance in cancer patients is often overlooked despite its documented high prevalence and negative impact. There are few empirically validated non-pharmacological treatments for insomnia and many patients are unwilling to rely on sleeping medications. This study will determine whether Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (a program that teaches meditation and yoga) produces equivalent results with the additional benefits of reduced stress and mood disturbance, to an already established treatment for insomnia, Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy. This will allow for the expansion of treatment options for insomnia beyond what is currently available and improve quality of life for millions of cancer survivors.

This study investigates the impact of brief behavioral insomnia treatment on depressive symptoms among military veterans.

This is a single-center, randomized controlled trial study design. Enrolled participants have a cardiovascular condition for which they are undergoing implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) therapy and comorbid insomnia. Participants were randomized to a behavioral intervention for insomnia in ICD patients or a waitlist control. The treatment intervention period lasted 4 weeks with a telephone booster session administered at 3 month follow-up. The objective of the study is to examine the impact of a brief therapy combining established behavioral approaches to treating insomnia with novel components to target negative cognitions and anxieties associated with cardiac disease and ICD implantation. Primary patient outcomes include sleep, psychological functioning, daytime functioning, cardiac functioning, cognitive performance, and ICD adjustment.
