To test the effectiveness of brief behavioral intervention for insomnia in rural elderly.
Twenty older insomniacs (> or =65 years of age) were randomly assigned to sleep hygiene education (SHE; N = 9) or multicomponent behavioral treatment (MBT; N = 11). Rural care providers individually administered treatment (two in-person sessions/two telephone follow-ups). Training involved a two-day workshop.
At posttreatment, 10 MBT participants no longer met criteria for insomnia compared to 3 SHE participants.
Brief behavioral intervention for late-life insomnia can be quickly taught and effectively delivered by "real-world" care providers in rural primary care settings.
测试针对农村老年人失眠的简短行为干预的有效性。
20名老年失眠患者（年龄≥65岁）被随机分配至睡眠卫生教育组（SHE；n = 9）或多成分行为治疗组（MBT；n = 11）。农村护理人员单独实施治疗（两次面对面治疗/两次电话随访）。培训为期两天的工作坊。
治疗后，10名MBT参与者不再符合失眠标准，而SHE参与者为3名。
针对老年失眠的简短行为干预可由农村初级保健机构的“现实世界”护理人员快速传授并有效实施。
