About this study

Official title: Development and Pilot Testing of Sleeping Healthy/Living Healthy, a Comprehensive Sleep Intervention for Adolescents in Urban School Based Health Center (SBHCs): Phase II or Randomized Pilot Trial

This pilot study will: (1) develop Sleeping Healthy/Living Healthy, a school-based health center (SBHC) intervention that combines MBIH and sleep hygiene strategies to improve sleep quality in urban adolescents with poor sleep quality; (2) evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of intervention procedures; and (3) assess the preliminary intervention effects on sleep quality in urban adolescents.

This study includes a development phase and a pilot individually-randomized group treatment (IRGT) phase. In Year 1, the investigators will develop the novel integrated intervention using an iterative participatory design process. In Year 2, the investigators will conduct an IRGT trial with 60 adolescents with insufficient sleep recruited from two SBHCs in New York City. Adolescents will be randomized 1:1 to receive the intervention or an attention control of equal intensity and duration. Process evaluation interviews guided by a rigorous fidelity framework with adolescents and with SBHC providers and personnel will be conducted to obtain feedback regarding intervention procedures.

Read the detailed description

Poor sleep quality, which contributes to impaired functioning, is elevated in urban, ethnic/racial minority adolescents due, in part, to poor sleep hygiene. Despite successful sleep hygiene interventions in younger children, none focus on adolescents, a group with unique developmental needs. Urban adolescents face unique contextual stressors, which may contribute to ineffective use of sleep hygiene behaviors. Mind-body integrative (MBIH) approaches (e.g. yoga, meditation) improve sleep quality in adults, but are rarely applied to adolescents. MBIH has been shown to reduce stress among adolescents. Taken together, this suggests that integrating MBIH with sleep hygiene strategies has the potential for a synergistic effect on improving sleep quality, yet no interventions concurrently use MBIH and sleep hygiene with adolescents.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Sleeping Healthy/Living HealthyBehavioural

    Sleeping Healthy/Living Healthy will be a school based health center (SBHC)-based intervention integrating mind-body integrative health (MBIH) and sleep hygiene strategies to improve sleep quality in urban adolescents. The Sleeping Healthy/Living Healthy intervention content and format will be determined in a Development Phase 1. The investigator anticipates the intervention will consist of two group and two one-on-one sessions. The intervention will be grounded in social-cognitive theory and use motivational interviewing to support MBIH and sleep hygiene strategies. Sessions will be delivered once per week by SBHC providers and health educators.

  • Attention ControlBehavioural

    The Attention Control Intervention condition will meet the requirements for a comparison treatment for testing behavioral interventions - equivalent in contact time, credible and interesting, and exert limited treatment effects.

    In the same number of sessions and format as the Sleeping Healthy/Living Healthy intervention (anticipated to be two group and two one-on-one sessions delivered once per week by SBHC providers and health educators), the study will teach participants about sleep and other health topics relevant to adolescents (e.g., nutrition, injury prevention) devoid of the MBIH elements in our integrated intervention.

Secondary outcomes (18)
  1. Score on Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI Global Score)

    Subjective sleep quality will be measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), which contains 19 self-rated questions. The 19 self-rated items are combined to form seven "component" scores, each of which has a range of 0-3 points. The component scores are summed to produce a global score (range 0 to 21). Higher scores indicate worse sleep quality.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 0)

    Stress will be measured using Perceived Stress Scale (past month). The PSS has 10 items, completed using self-report. Individual scores on the PSS can range from 0 to 40 with higher scores indicating higher perceived stress. Scores ranging from 0-13 would be considered low stress; scores ranging from 14-26 would be considered moderate stress; scores ranging from 27-40 would be considered high perceived stress.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 0)

  16. Score on MAAS-A (Mindfulness Attention Awareness Scale - Adolescents)

    Mindfulness will be measured using the MAAS-A, a self-reported 14-item questionnaire that measures the level of mindfulness, defined as "a receptive state of attention that, informed by an awareness of present experience, simply observes what is taking place." The MAAS-A is an adapted adolescent version of the validated Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS), which was developed for use with adult populations and considers mindfulness to be a one-dimensional construct. Using a six-point scale, ranging from 1 (almost always) to 6 (almost never), adolescents indicate how frequently or infrequently they currently have each experience. The score is the mean of the 14 items with higher scores reflecting higher trait mindfulness.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sleeping Healthy/Living Healthy in people with Sleep and Psychological Stress, run by Columbia University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 20 Sep 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Average Sleep Duration (Past 2 Weeks) (time frame: Baseline (Day 0)). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Sep 2024.
