Multidimensional Sleep Health Intervention for Couples (DREAM-COUPLES)

2026년 8월 31일 업데이트: Nour Makarem, PhD, Columbia University

DREAM-COUPLES: A Dyadic Multidimensional Sleep Health Intervention

The goal of this pilot dyadic study is to adapt a multidimensional sleep health (MDSH) intervention, previously disseminated at the individual level, for relationship partners, determine whether it improves sleep health and aspects of cardiometabolic health, and understand the role of dyadic dynamics in intervention effects.

Can a dyadic MDSH intervention improve sleep health and blood pressure (primary outcomes) in relationship partners?

Can a dyadic MDSH intervention improve anthropometric markers of adiposity, psychosocial indicators, stress, dyadic adjustment and coping, self-rated health (secondary outcomes) in relationship partners?

As this is a single-arm study, there is no control group. All relationship partners will complete a three-tier screening process, attend two in-person visits to receive intervention materials, have blood pressure measured and sleep data collected using in-office and out-of-office monitors, participate in weekly check-in phone calls with research staff over the 8 weeks to support adherence and complete a voluntary follow-up phone call at 16 weeks to provide additional sleep health information. The multidimensional sleep health promotion intervention is based on evidence-based sleep hygiene education and established behavior change techniques and includes: report-back of sleep health profiles, S.M.A.R.T (specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and timely) goal-setting and establishing a sleep health plan with a fixed sleep schedule, sleep health coaching and dyadic action planning, self-monitoring, virtual sleep hygiene education, motivational feedback, and addressing light and noise in the sleep environment. Mixed methods will be used to understand implementation metrics, processes, and outcomes to establish the successful completion and future expansion of the intervention within this context.

상세 설명

Sleep is a critical determinant of cardiometabolic health (CMH), yet most lifestyle interventions have focused exclusively on diet and physical activity, ignoring sleep as a modifiable behavioral target. There are limited behavioral sleep health interventions for improving CMH. To address this, the investigators developed the DREAM intervention, a multilevel multi-component intervention leveraging evidence-based behavior change techniques and addressing both individual behaviors and the sleep environment. To extend this work, the investigators are adapting the DREAM intervention to cohabitating couples, recognizing the critical role of dyadic dynamics in shaping sleep health and the importance of relationship partners in influencing each other's health behaviors.

This study will investigate whether a dyadic multidimensional sleep health (MDSH) intervention delivered to cohabitating relationship partners can improve objectively measured sleep health and cardiometabolic outcomes, including office and out-of-office blood pressure (BP) and anthropometric markers of adiposity. This study will also examine the intervention's effects on stress, psychosocial indicators, dyadic adjustment and coping, and self-rated health. The hypothesis is that targeting multiple interrelated sleep dimensions and leveraging health-promoting dyadic dynamics as a sustainable social support mechanism will improve MDSH and CMH.

This is a single arm, pre-post design intervention study. There is no randomization or control arm, and all eligible couples will receive the MDSH intervention. The study consists of three phases:

Screening Phase: Online/phone questionnaire screening followed by an in-person blood pressure assessment and 7-day sleep assessment (actigraphy and sleep diary) to confirm eligibility.

Intervention Phase (8 weeks): Eligible couples receive the full MDSH intervention, and complete two in-person visits at baseline and 8-weeks (endpoint).

Follow-Up Phase (16 weeks): A follow-up phone call is conducted at 16 weeks post-enrollment to collect sleep health information and assess sustainability of intervention effects.

Baseline, 8 weeks
Change in multidimensional sleep health
기간: Baseline, 8 weeks
Sleep health will be assessed using sleep duration, regularity, efficiency, and timing from wrist actigraphy and self-reported sleep satisfaction and alertness (measured by daytime sleepiness). Optimal sleep health will be defined as having an average sleep duration (hours/night) ≥ 7 hours and < 9 hours, regular sleep duration and timing (standard deviation of sleep duration and timing variables < 60 minutes), sleep efficiency (%) ≥ 85%, an earlier sleep period (sleep midpoint earlier than 4:00 AM), normal daytime sleepiness (Epworth Sleepiness Scale ≤ 10), and good self-rated sleep satisfaction or quality. Each individual component will receive a score of 1 if it meets the optimal sleep health definition or a score of 0 if it does not. Scores will range from 0-6, where higher scores (closer to 6) are defined as healthier sleep. Changes in the sleep health score (cumulative dimensions) from baseline to 8 weeks will be assessed.
