Summary

Behavioral sleep problems such as sleep onset delays and frequent night wakings are common among young children (2-5 years). Children with a chronic health condition such as juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) are even more prone to sleep problems, which are also associated with disease-related symptoms such as pain and fatigue. Early childhood is a critical period for establishing healthy sleep habits and self-regulation skills and is therefore an opportune time to identify and address unhealthy sleep habits. The Sleep Innovation for Preschoolers with Arthritis (SIPA) project will develop and pilot test a technology-based sleep intervention for parents of young children with JIA.

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Sleep Innovations for Preschoolers with Arthritis (SIPA)

The SIPA intervention is interactive and personalized. Every week, parent will receive an email sent automatically through the system with instructions for this week's activity, designed to take about 30 minutes to complete. The SIPA weekly modules will begin with a learning module, then direct participants through goal setting, anticipated barriers, and problem solving. The intervention site will include fillable responses to queries, instructions, and assignments. Tasks for parents and their young children will use multimedia elements to enhance delivery of information, such as links to videos and pictures targeting self-efficacy, motivation, and patient activation. Submissions and progress will be monitored by the study team, who will send email, call or text with reminders (whichever the family prefers) and answer questions as needed, review progress, and help problem solve any technology issues or barriers to implementing skills.
