Insomnia is a common mental disorder with severe consequences. Cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTI) has been proved effective against insomnia, but most of the research is limited to Western countries. This trial objective is to develop a Chinese culture-adapted CBTI program and assess its efficacy.
An 8-week culturally adapted CBTI program was developed that included mixed group and individual session and culturally adapted relaxation and cognitive restructuring treatment components. A one-arm clinical trial was conducted at a public hospital between March 2016 and January 2017. Seventy-two Chinese adults (15 males, 57 females; mean age, 50 years) with insomnia disorder underwent the culturally adapted CBTI program. Sleep diaries and self-report scales, as well as polysomnography (PSG, for a subgroup only), were used to assess qualitative and quantitative measures of sleep, mental health status, and quality of life at baseline, post-treatment, and 4-month follow-up.
Pre-post analyses showed significant changes in sleep diary sleep onset latency (SOL), wake after sleep onset (WASO), and total sleep time of respectively - 37.03 min (CI, - 48.90 to - 25.16), - 28.16 min (CI, - 40.22 to - 16.10), and + 27.49 min (CI, 10.51 to 44.47). Self-reported sleep quality, mental health, and quality of life improved compared to baseline. The self-reported outcomes were mainly stable at follow-up. PSG outcomes globally failed to show improvement.
The design of a CBTI program adapted to Chinese population was achieved. Culturally adapted CBTI showed promising results. More rigorously designed studies are needed to ensure efficacy.
失眠是一种常见的精神障碍,后果严重。失眠的认知行为疗法(CBTI)已被证明对失眠有效,但大多数研究仅限于西方国家。本试验的目的是开发一种适应中国文化的CBTI方案并评估其疗效。
开发了一个为期8周的适应文化的CBTI方案,包括混合小组和个体治疗环节,以及适应文化的放松和认知重构治疗成分。2016年3月至2017年1月在一家公立医院进行了单臂临床试验。72名患有失眠症的中国成年人(15名男性,57名女性;平均年龄50岁)接受了适应文化的CBTI方案。使用睡眠日记和自我报告量表,以及多导睡眠图(仅对一个亚组进行)来评估基线、治疗后和4个月随访时睡眠、心理健康状况和生活质量的定性和定量指标。
前后分析显示,睡眠日记中的入睡潜伏期(SOL)、睡眠中觉醒时间(WASO)和总睡眠时间分别有显著变化,分别为-37.03分钟(可信区间,-48.90至-25.16)、-28.16分钟(可信区间,-40.22至-16.10)和+27.49分钟(可信区间,10.51至44.47)。与基线相比,自我报告的睡眠质量、心理健康和生活质量有所改善。自我报告的结果在随访时基本稳定。多导睡眠图的结果总体上没有显示出改善。
实现了适应中国人群的CBTI方案的设计。适应文化的CBTI显示出有希望的结果。需要更严格设计的研究来确保疗效。
