Treatment of Insomnia in Military Veterans:Phase 2

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), finalizing a treatment manual.

Descrizione dettagliata

Insomnia is one of the most common reasons for referral to mental health services in active duty personnel. Chronic insomnia often persists post-deployment, contributes to poor mental and physical health outcomes, and requires targeted interventions. Effective behavioral treatments of insomnia have not been adapted and tested for the treatment of chronic insomnia comorbid to combat-related mental disorders and stress reactions. In addition, effective behavioral insomnia treatments are typically delivered over an 8-week period. This format may not be easily exportable to primary and community care settings where military returnees and veterans seek help. The goal 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), and who present with the typical psychiatric comorbidities associated of combat-related anxiety and mood disorders and stress reactions. We call this intervention the Brief Behavioral Treatment of Insomnia for Military Veterans (BBTI-MV). The proposed study includes two phases. The specific aims of Phase II are: (1) To explore the effects of BBTI-MV on sleep and daytime symptoms of psychiatric distress. We anticipate that participants randomized to BBTI-MV will show a higher categorical response rate and remission for sleep symptoms than subjects randomized to IC. (2) To evaluate in a preliminary manner the durability of therapeutic gains and by conducting a naturalistic follow-up assessment six months post-treatment in responders. (3) To explore whether the nature of combat-related experiences, time since deployment and since, return to the US, deployment theater, medication use and change in dosage, mood and anxiety or disorders affect sleep treatment adherence and outcomes.

Armi e interventi

Gruppo di partecipanti / Arm
Intervento / Trattamento
Comparatore attivo: Breif Behavioral Treatment of Insomnia
Effective behavioral insomnia treatments are typically delivered over an 8-week period. This format may not be easily exportable to primary and community care settings where military returnees and veterans seek help. The goal here is to 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), and who present with the typical psychiatric comorbidities associated of combat-related anxiety and mood disorders and stress reactions.
Twenty participants will be randomized to BBTI-MV. As previously described, the intervention will be delivered over 4 consecutive weeks, which include individual face-to-face visits on Weeks 1 and 3, and telephone appointments on Weeks 2 and 4. Interventions will be delivered at Western Psychiatric Institutes and Clinic. If possible, (according to space availability), the face-to-face sessions may also be conducted at the VAPHS clinics or at Reserve and Veterans Centers locally and regionally to strengthen our relations with local care and services providers and centers, and to facilitate future collaborative efforts. The duration of the first treatment visit is 45-minutes, and the follow-up visit on Week 3 will last no more than 30 minutes. Brief (<20 minutes) telephone sessions will be conducted on Weeks 2 and 4.
Altro: Information Control
This arm of the study does not receive the Brief Behavioral Treatment for Insomnia. This arm will act as the control arm.
Participants will receive two brochures from the American Academy on Sleep Medicine of Sleep Hygiene and on Insomnia. The therapists will read the content of the 2 brochures with participants, and discuss how the information provide relates to individual participants' sleep experiences. No recommendations for altering sleep schedules will be made by the assigned therapist. Participants will be instructed to read these two brochures over the course of the following week, and to consider how the information provided in the brochures related to their own sleep patterns
