CBT-I for Sleep, Pain, and Inflammation in Crohn's Disease (SPIN)
May 17, 2023 updated by: Jessica.K.Salwen-Deremer, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center
A Pilot Trial of CBT-I for Sleep, Pain, and Inflammation in Crohn's Disease
People with Crohn's disease often suffer from sleep problems.
Long term, sleep problems may lead to more flares of Crohn's disease or other complications.
In general, people with Crohn's disease also report that sleep problems can worsen symptoms of Crohn's disease the next day.
In people with other medical problems, research has also shown that having sleep problems can make other things worse, such as pain and inflammation.
In this study, the researchers want to understand the treatment of sleep problems in people with Crohn's disease, and what else might improve if sleep gets better.
This study will use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) to treat insomnia symptoms.
CBT-I is the recommended treatment for insomnia and has been shown to improve sleep problems, pain, and inflammation in other groups of people.
If this study is successful, it will contribute to understanding how to treat insomnia in people with Crohn's disease and how sleep impacts pain and inflammation.
Long term, this information will be helpful in understanding how best to take care of people with Crohn's disease.

Experimental: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia
CBT-I has a specific protocol with behavioral targets that differ significantly from standard CBT.
This approach focuses on implementing sleep restriction and stimulus control interventions which are fully deployed during the first session.
Five CBT-I sessions will be delivered over the course of 8 weeks.
Key recommendations include: 1) reduce time in bed; 2) get up at the same time every day; 3) do not go to bed unless sleepy; 4) do not stay in bed awake for more than 15 minutes; and 5) avoid napping.
Participants are also taught relaxation strategies and cognitive therapy addresses arousal and catastrophizing.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in insomnia symptoms as measured by the Insomnia Severity Index
Time Frame: From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
The Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) is a self-report questionnaire designed to measure severity of insomnia.
The ISI is made up of 7 items on insomnia symptoms and related impairments and total scores range from 0-28.
Higher scores are indicative of greater insomnia symptoms.
|
From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
Change in diary-based sleep onset latency
Time Frame: From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
A weekly average of self-reported time it takes to fall asleep each night, derived from a self-reported sleep diary
|
From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
Change in diary-based wake after sleep onset
Time Frame: From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
A weekly average of self-reported time spent awake in the middle of each night, derived from a self-reported sleep diary
|
From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in sleep efficiency based on diary
Time Frame: From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
Change in sleep efficiency (total sleep time / time in bed), derived from a self-reported sleep diary
|

|
Change in sleep efficiency based on actigraphy
Time Frame: From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
Change in sleep efficiency (total sleep time / time in bed) as measured by actigraphy (actigraph)
|
From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
Change in diary sleep efficiency based on ambulatory EEG monitoring
Time Frame: From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
Change in sleep efficiency (total sleep time / time in bed) as measured by ambulatory EEG sleep architecture monitoring (sleep profiler)
|

|
Change in self-reported pain as measured by the Brief Pain Inventory
Time Frame: From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
The Brief Pain Inventory will be used to assess pain location, severity, and interference.
Pain severity is rated from 0-10 and pain interference is rated from 0-10; higher scores indicate more severe pain and more pain interference.
|
From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
Change in behaviorally assessed pain tolerance via the Cold Pressor Test
Time Frame: From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
The Cold Pressor Test involves submerging one's non-dominant hand in ice water and rating discomfort at regular, pre-determined intervals.
Pain tolerance will be measured based on the total amount of time a participant can keep their hand submerged, with a maximum of 2 minutes.
|
From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
Change in self-reported Crohn's disease symptoms as measured by the Patient Reported Outcomes-3
Time Frame: From baseline assessment to 1-month post intervention
|
The Patient Reported Outcomes-3 is a self-report questionnaire that assesses frequency of diarrhea, severity of abdominal pain, and overall well-being.
Higher scores indicate more severe Crohn's disease symptoms.
|
