CU-REST Trial Summary

This trial will evaluate a computer-guided therapy for sleep disturbances caused by TBI, to see if it's more effective than existing treatments for those who may not have access to providers.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals who have had a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury at least one year ago and are now experiencing insomnia. Participants must have reliable internet access and be able to consent. They can't join if they're dependent on substances (except cannabis), pregnant, dealing with psychosis or bipolar disorder, in another sleep study, getting psychological treatment for insomnia, or have irregular sleep patterns due to work or life changes.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing a guided computerized cognitive behavioral therapy program for insomnia (cCBT-I) against an enhanced usual care approach in people with past traumatic brain injuries. It aims to see if this online therapy can improve sleep quality when traditional treatments aren't accessible.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention involves non-pharmaceutical therapy (computerized cognitive behavioral therapy), typical drug-related side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience frustration or stress if they find the technology challenging or if there's no immediate improvement in their sleep.
