24. februar 2010 oppdatert av: University of Virginia

Evaluating Internet-Based Interventions for Insomnia in Cancer Patients

The purpose of this study is to determine whether an Internet-based program, Sleep Healthy Using the Internet (SHUTi, or "Shut-Eye"), can help to improve the sleep of people who are in remission from cancer and experiencing symptoms of insomnia.

Studieoversikt

Detaljert beskrivelse

The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility of using an Internet program to improve the sleep of cancer patients with insomnia. Participants will receive access to the Internet program (called SHUTi, or "Shut-Eye") as well as to self-hypnosis recordings designed to improve sleep. SHUTi provides an online, tailored educational program to individuals who are experiencing sleep difficulties, including those having difficulty falling asleep, waking in the middle of the night, and waking too early in the morning.

Våpen og intervensjoner

Deltakergruppe / Arm
Intervensjon / Behandling
Eksperimentell: ImmedSHUTi/ImmedHyp
In the first part of the trial, participants are assigned to the Immediate SHUTi group; that is, they receive access to the SHUTi program right away. In the second part of the trial (3 months later), participants are assigned to the Immediate Hypnosis group; that is, they receive access to the Hypnosis recordings right away.
SHUTi is an Internet program based on cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I). Users complete daily online sleep diaries in addition to receiving weekly access to six interactive "Cores" of information. As they progress through the program, users receive tailored instructions for how to improve their sleep.
Subjects listen to self-hypnosis recordings designed to improve their disturbed sleep.
Eksperimentell: ImmedSHUTi/DelayHyp
In the first part of the trial, participants are assigned to the Immediate SHUTi group; that is, they receive access to the SHUTi program right away. In the second part of the trial (3 months later), participants are assigned to the Delayed Hypnosis group; that is, they receive access to the Hypnosis recordings at the end of the study.
