RECRUITING

Sleep Mechanisms of Regulating Emotions

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

This project is the second phase of a two-phased project investigating the impact of a proven sleep intervention, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I) on engagement of the emotion regulation brain network as a putative mechanistic target.

Official Title

  9. * Pregnant or breast feeding
  10. * Current or lifetime history of bipolar disorder or psychosis
  11. * Current or expected cognitive behavior therapy or other evidence-based psychotherapies for another condition
  12. * Received cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia within the past year
  13. * Acute or unstable chronic illness: including but not limited to: uncontrolled thyroid disease, kidney, prostate or bladder conditions causing excessively frequent urination (\> 3 times per night); medically unstable congestive heart failure, angina, other severe cardiac illness as defined by treatment regimen changes in the prior 3 months; stroke with serious sequelae; cancer if \< 1 year since end of treatment; asthma, emphysema, or other severe respiratory diseases uncontrolled with medications; and neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and unstable epilepsy as defined by treatment regimen changes in the prior 3 months; unstable adult onset diabetes as defined by treatment regimen changes in the prior 3 months
  14. * Current exposure to trauma, or exposure to trauma within the past 3 months
  15. * Working a rotating shift that overlaps with 2400h
