TIDE Trial Summary

This trial is studying whether a combination of therapies can help reduce symptoms of insomnia and depression in adults.

Who is the study for?
The TIDE trial is for rural, African-American adults over 50 with both insomnia and depression. They must not be in current psychological treatment, have a stable mental status (MMSE score ≥24 or ≥17 if education ended at eighth grade), and can't be at serious risk of suicide. Participants need a referral from their primary care doctor within the Black Belt region.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
This study tests integrated Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) delivered via videoconferencing to treat insomnia and depression together, compared to usual care alone. It aims to see if this approach is feasible in rural settings and whether it improves sleep quality, mood, and life satisfaction more effectively than standard treatments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since CBT is a non-medical therapy involving talking and behavior change strategies without drugs, side effects are minimal but may include temporary increases in distress as difficult topics are discussed or changes in sleep patterns as new habits form.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

What are the criteria for becoming a participant in this medical research program?

"This clinical trial is on the lookout for 46 seniors (aged 50-100) with clinically significant depression. In addition to being of a certain age, participants must be residents of the Black Belt area or nearby counties, have an MMSE score of 24+ (17+ if they only completed 8th grade education), not already undergoing psychological treatment, lack any serious suicidal ideation, and have coexisting medical/psychiatric disorders that don't prevent them from attending CBT sessions nor affect data collection. If these individuals are receiving either insomnia or depression medication currently then their primary care physician should still determine if residual symptoms are sufficient enough to warrant further"
