Behavioral Insomnia Therapy in Primary Care
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 100 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
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.
