Active Comparator: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia
Participants assigned to the CBTI treatment group will receive 8 weeks of weekly telehealth sessions with a masters-level therapist. Each session is approximately 50 minutes in duration.
|
Behavioral: Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia
Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBTI) is a well-established first-line or complimentary treatment for insomnia which consists of cognitive and behavioral modifications, including addressing maladaptive sleep-related behaviors, controlling sleep environment, and limiting time spent in bed. |
Active Comparator: Acoustic Slow-Wave Activity Enhancement
Participants assigned to the SWAE group will be instructed to use the Dreem2 headband at least four nights out of seven nights of the week.
|
Device: Acoustic slow-wave activity enhancement
The acoustic enhancement of slow-wave activity will be conducted using the Dreem2 headband. This device utilizes five dry-EEG electrodes (O1, O2, FpZ, F7, and F8), a 3D accelerometer, and a pulse oximeter to detect slow-wave activity and generates acoustic stimulation of slow-waves to augment slow-wave sleep. |
- No Practice Effect (NPE) battery [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 9, Week 24 ]The total composite score, as well as factor scores (Cognitive Control and Executive Functions, Episodic Memory Consolidation, Verbal Working Memory) will be examined.
- Everyday Cognition (ECog) [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 9, Week 24 ]Total score and subdomains (Everyday Planning, Everyday Organization, Everyday Divided Attention, Everyday Language, Everyday Visuospatial Abilities, Everyday Memory Subdomain scores) will be examined.
- Conners Continuous Performance Test (CPT-3) [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 9, Week 24 ]Measure of sustained attention and vigilance
- Insomnia Severity Index [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 9, Week 24 ]Well-established measure of insomnia symptoms. Scores range from 0-28, and higher scores represent more severe insomnia symptoms.
- N3 sleep stage ("slow-wave sleep") [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 9, Week 24 ]N3 sleep duration will be calculated using Dreem Headband, a sleep assessment device that produces objective sleep measures.
- SubjectiveTotal Sleep Time [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 9, Week 24 ]Self-reported sleep duration will be asked as part of the sleep diaries.
- Objective Total Sleep Time [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 9, Week 24 ]Objective sleep duration will be measured via sleep monitoring device (Dreem Headband 2)
- Subjective Wake After Sleep Onset [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 9, Week 24 ]Self-reported sleep duration will be asked as part of the sleep diaries.
- Objective Wake After Sleep Onset [ Time Frame: Baseline, Week 9, Week 24 ]Objective sleep duration will be measured via sleep monitoring device (Dreem Headband 2)

Ages Eligible for Study: | 60 Years to 85 Years (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- English speaking participants, ages 60-85 years
- Telephone MMSE (T-MMSE) score of 22 or greater at screening assessment; T-MMSE <18 during post-treatment visit or 6-month follow-up will be discontinued from participation of the study.
- Individuals with aMCI, as determined by the Wechsler Memory Scale-Revised Logical Memory Delayed Recall (LM) and Quick Dementia Rating Scale (QDRS)
- Presence of subject memory complains not exclusionary. Presence of subjective memory complaints without objective signs of impairment (T-MMSE, QDRS, LM) would not be considered as the presence of late MCI or dementia, therefore are not exclusionary.
- Participants with regular and consistent use of sleep medications (sedatives/hypnotic use of >3 times per week) will be excluded. Participants who take sleep medications 3 or less times per week will be asked to discontinue medications prior to the study baseline visit. All discontinuation/tapering procedures will require PI's direct consultation with participants' prescribing or primary care physicians, which will be documented to ensure participants' safety.
- Presence of sleep disturbance, as determined by score of 8 or greater on the Insomnia Severity Index administered at baseline (without sleep medications).
- Participants must have capacity to provide informed consent.
- Have access to stable internet connection.
- A family member or other individual who is in contact with the subject and consents to serve as informant during the study; this can be a telephone informant in the case of subjects who do not have a live-in informant
Exclusion Criteria:
- Diagnosis of stroke or excessive risk of CVD
- Neurologic disease including movement disorders, MS, epilepsy, and TBI (with greater than 15 min loc)
- Untreated diabetes
- Active treatment of cancer
- Telephone MMSE score below 22 (Newkirk et al., 2004) and Logical Memory above 11 for subjects with 16 or more years of education, 9 for subjects with 8-15 years of education, and 6 for subjects with 0-7 years of education
- Presence of sleep disorders other than insomnia (moderate-severe sleep apnea, REM-behavior disorder, restless legs syndrome, circadian rhythm disorder). Mild sleep apnea will not be exclusionary.
- Current DSM-5 Axis I psychiatric diagnosis of schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, substance/alcohol use disorder, or bipolar disorder
- Use of antidepressants with known large anticholinergic properties will be excluded. These include: amitriptyline, amoxapine, clomipramine, desipramine, doxepine, imipramine, isocarboxazide, lithium, maprotiline, mirtazapine, nortriptyline, tranylcypromine trimipramine, and phenelzine. Other medications are allowed during the study and are not exclusionary.
- Participants taking medications with benzodiazepines properties will be excluded. These include: diazepam, quazepam, estazolam, alprazolam, clorazepate, clorazepate, oxazepam, alprazolam, chlordiazepoxide, lorazepam, flurazepam, triazolam, temazepam, and midazolam.
- Participants with moderate to severe depression (Geriatric Depression Scale>8) will be excluded from the study and will be encouraged to seek treatment for their symptoms. Participants with moderate depression (GDS 5-8) will be encouraged to return for screening after receiving treatment and seeing improvement in their symptoms.
- Participants who are unable to provide an informant.
