Abstract: Cardiac patients and those with chronic medical conditions often suffer from comorbidities such as insomnia and mood disorders. Previous treatment protocols have focused on resolving symptoms of anxiety and depression in this population using Stress Management Training (SMT). However, these treatments have neglected the importance of sleep problems in these patients. This pilot trial sought to address this by examining the feasibility of a novel CBTi/SMT treatment protocol. 42 participants attending a Cardiac Rehab (CR) exercise program registered in this 7-week non-randomized pilot trial. The primary objective of the pilot trial was to determine the feasibility of the protocol for retention and adherence rates. Secondarily, the authors sought to examine the potential efficacy of the program in terms of treating insomnia, depression, anxiety, emotion dysregulation, and arousal. 29 participants attended at least 1 class, with 21 participants completing the program. The average attendance for the program completers was 6 out of 7 classes (SD = 0.8) with four days of practice each week (SD = 1.6) for 33 minutes daily (SD = 16.8). Moreover, the number of participants meeting clinical threshold for insomnia, anxiety, and/or depression was significantly reduced at post-treatment and follow-up. Similarly, raw scores on the relevant scales were significantly reduced at both timepoints. This pilot trial provided preliminary evidence for the feasibility and efficacy of targeting sleep improvement with a combined CBTi/SMT protocol. This provides the groundwork for future RCTs to establish the effectiveness of targeting insomnia in a range of medical populations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
