Overview

Brief Summary

The study aims are to: 1) optimize the Transdiagnostic Sleep and Circadian Intervention (TranS-C) for delivery to Veterans in cardiac rehabilitation, 2) test and refine the adapted TranS-C treatment manual and protocol, and 3) conduct a pilot randomized trial to establish the feasibility, acceptability, and plausibility of the intervention protocol and study procedures.

Detailed Description

Aim 1 will involve formative work to optimize the TranS-C manual and protocol for delivery in Cardiac Rehabilitation, with input from Veterans and provider stakeholders. Aim 2 will involve a preliminary test and refinement of the adapted TranS-C manual and protocol with a small sample of Veterans who are participating in cardiac rehabilitation and report sleep disturbance and/or sleep-related impairment. Aim 3 will involve a pilot randomized trial to establish the feasibility, acceptability, and plausibility of the intervention protocol and study procedures. Veterans in cardiac rehabilitation with sleep disturbance and/or sleep-related impairment will be randomized to TranS-C + Usual Care or Usual Care. Treatment satisfaction will be assessed at 3-months; sleep disturbance and sleep-related impairment, disability and functioning, and health-related quality of life will be assessed at baseline, 3-months, and 6-months to determine measure responsiveness and provide preliminary insight into treatment effects. Of note, information provided in this entry (e.g., design, eligibility criteria, outcomes, etc.) pertains only to Aim 3 which includes the pilot randomized trial. Consistent with Stage I of the NIH stage model of behavioral intervention development research, results from Aim 1 and 2 activities may lead to modifications to the pilot protocol and procedures in Aim 3.

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Multidimensional Treatment Satisfaction Measure

Time Frame: 3 months

Self-report measure of patient satisfaction with behavioral intervention process and outcomes. Subscale scores range from 0-4. Higher scores are suggestive of greater satisfaction with treatment.

Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Short Form v 1.0-Sleep Disturbance 8a from Baseline to 3 and 6 months

Time Frame: Baseline to 3 and 6 months

Validated self-report measure of global sleep disturbance over the preceding 7 days. Produces raw score and T-score values, where 50 is the mean of the reference population and 10 is the standard deviation. Higher scores are indicative of greater sleep disturbance.

Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Short Form v 1.0-Sleep Related Impairment 8a from Baseline to 3 and 6 months

Time Frame: Baseline to 3 and 6 months

Validated self-report measure of sleep-related impairment over the preceding 7 days. Produces raw score and T-score values, where 50 is the mean of the reference population and 10 is the standard deviation. Higher scores are indicative of greater sleep-related impairment.

World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS 2.0) from Baseline to 3 and 6 months

Time Frame: Baseline to 3 and 6 months

Validated self-report measure of disability and functioning associated with physical and mental disorders. The WHODAS 2.0 contains 36-items that assess functioning in the domains of cognition, mobility, self-care, getting along, life activities, and participation over the preceding 30 days. The outcome of interest is the WHODAS 2.0 summary score. Using the complex scoring method, scores range from 0 to 100. Higher scores are indicative of greater disability.

MacNew Heart Disease Health-Related Quality of Life Questionnaire (MacNew) from Baseline to 3 and 6 months

Time Frame: Baseline to 3 months and 6 months

Validated self-report measure of health-related quality of life in patients with heart disease. Contains 27 items that assess physical limitations, emotional function, social function, and symptoms common in heart disease (e.g., angina/chest pain, shortness of breath, fatigue, aching legs). The outcome of interest is the total health-related quality of life score. Scores range from 1 to 7. Higher scores are indicative of higher levels of health-related quality of life.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) from Baseline to 3 and 6 months(Baseline to 3 and 6 months)
  • Life Space Assessment from Baseline to 3 and 6 months(Baseline to 3 and 6 months)
  • Physical Performance Test (PPT)from Baseline to 3 and 6 months(Baseline to 3 and 6 months)
  • World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF) from Baseline to 3 and 6 months(Baseline to 3 and 6 months)
