Trial Outcomes & Findings for Treating People With Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder With Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (NCT NCT00881647)

NCT ID: NCT00881647

Last Updated: 2014-03-17

Results Overview

In a self-report sleep diary, participants were asked to report the length of time it takes from lying down for the night until sleep onset. This outcome consists of the posttreatment (CBT-I) or post-waitlist diary entry; In other words, each of the values below was measured at 8 weeks.

Population: per protocol

WASO was the sum of wake time during sleep as recorded in a self-report sleep diary, and as measured in epochs (30 seconds of polysomnography \[PSG\]) recording) after the onset of persistent sleep and prior to final awakening and wake time after sleep (the number of epochs after the final awakening until the end of PSG recording \[i.e. awake epoch immediately prior to the end of the recording\]). This outcome consists of posttreatment (CBT-I) or post-waitlist diary entries and polysomnography data; In other words, each of the values below was measured at 8 weeks.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: After 8 weeks of study participation

SE, as determined by polysomnography (PSG) and by self-reported sleep diary, was the total sleep time (TST) divided by the time in bed, multiplied by 100. This outcome consists of posttreatment (CBT-I) or post-waitlist diary entries and polysomnography data; In other words, each of the values below was measured at 8 weeks.
