About this study
Official title: Sleep Restriction Treatment for Insomnia: a Randomized Controlled Trial
With a prevalence of about 10% chronic insomnia is a common problem. The standard treatment for insomnia is cognitive behavioral therapy. According to many, the core element within this treatment is sleep restriction. This element has been examined separately in a couple of studies and also appears to be effective in isolation. In the current study the aim is to get more information about the effectiveness of this core element of the treatment. For this reason, a randomized study is conducted to compare sleep restriction with a diary control condition.
The second aim in this study is to determine mechanisms behind treatments. Network intervention analysis will be used to determine which specific symptoms are associated with therapy success. This is the reason that throughout the study weekly and daily measures will be conducted.

The expectations are that:

- Participants in the sleep restriction condition will improve more on sleep diary outcomes and other secondary outcomes compared to the sleep diary control condition (secondary outcome)

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
sleep restriction treatmentBehavioural
Treatment consists of sleep restriction treatment for insomnia. In this treatment, participants limit their bedtimes to the time they actually sleep. If they sleep most of the time in bed again then bedtimes are slowly built up again. This treatment technique has already been studied in several trials and found to be effective.
Mode of delivery is an online booklet, online exercises and weekly telephone support
sleep diary monitoringBehavioural
As an active control condition people monitor their sleep with a sleep diary (also included in the sleep restriction intervention)
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Sleep restriction treatment | Experimental | In this condition participants receive a behavioral sleep restriction intervention for six weeks Receives: Behavioral: sleep restriction treatment |
| Sleep monitoring | Placebo comparator | In this control condition people fill out a sleep diary for six weeks Receives: Behavioral: sleep diary monitoring |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

The Insomnia Severity Index is a seven item-scale scored on a five-point Likert scale (Bastien et al. 2001). The total score ranges from 0 to 28. Higher scores indicate more insomnia.
Measured: Change from baseline to six weeks post-randomization
Secondary outcomes (35)

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing sleep restriction treatment and sleep diary monitoring in people with Insomnia, run by VU University of Amsterdam at 1 site in Netherlands.
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 6 inclusion and 9 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 22 Dec 2023. 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 Netherlands. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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?
Insomnia Severity Index (time frame: Change from baseline to six weeks post-randomization). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05548907, which also lists 3 linked publications.
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 22 Dec 2023.
