简要总结
Sleep disturbances have been shown to contribute to poorer recovery from a concussion. Furthermore, sleep disturbances have been associated with more frequent and severe post-concussion symptoms including headache, vertigo, anxiety, depression, and decreased short term memory reducing quality of life and productivity at work or school. Additionally, recent research indicates that individuals with a concussion who have poor sleep quality have increased levels of Neurofilament light (NfL) and tau biomarkers indicating that there may still be axonal damage after weeks or months after the initial concussion injury. Post-concussion symptoms have been associated with higher levels of these biomarkers and there has been a report of higher levels of NfL and tau years following a concussion event. Cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) is an effective treatment for insomnia yet it remains unclear if this treatment method is effective in improving sleep outcomes, reducing concomitant post-concussion symptoms, and biomarkers of neural injury/risk in individuals post- concussion. The central hypothesis for this project is treating sleep disturbances will yield a clinically relevant reduction in concomitant post-concussion symptoms. The objective for the proposed study is to determine if CBT-I will reduce insomnia symptoms and improve concomitant post-concussion symptoms in individuals after concussion and if symptom improvements are maintained at 6-weeks and 12-weeks after CBT-I intervention.

结局指标
主要结局
change in Insomnia Severity Index
时间窗: baseline to 21 weeks
7 questions each rated on a 0-4 scale. The range of scores on the ISI is 0-28
change in Post-Concussion Symptom Scale
时间窗: baseline to 21 weeks
Severity of 22 concussion-related symptoms are assessed by a Likert scale 0-6. Participants will rate their symptoms from a "0" or no symptom to "6" extreme symptom. A score of 132 is the maximum someone can have indicating all symptoms are severe. 2. The number of post-concussion symptoms will be assessed by counting the number of symptoms that the participant identified as having a severity of "1" or higher on the PCSS. A score of a "1" indicates that the symptom is mild, but still noticeable.
change in Beck Anxiety Inventory
时间窗: baseline to 21 weeks
The tool consists of 21 items that are scored on a Likert scale of 1-3. Scores range from minimal anxiety (0-7), mild anxiety (8-15) moderate anxiety (16-25) and severe anxiety (\<30).
change in PSQI
时间窗: baseline to 21 weeks
Scores range from 0-21 with a higher score indicating a lower quality of sleep
change in Beck Depression Inventory
时间窗: baseline to 21 weeks
21 item questionnaire used to assess the severity of depression. Scores range from 1 to greater than 40.
次要结局
- change in plasma pTau181(baseline to 21 weeks)
- change in Sleep Self-Efficacy(baseline to 21 weeks)
- change in RU-SATED questionnaire(baseline to 21 weeks)
