Innovation in the Treatment of Insomnia in Breast Cancer Survivors
Mené au Danemark sur 225 patientes ayant survécu à un cancer du sein, cet essai randomisé évalue l'efficacité d'une psychothérapie cognitive et comportementale en ligne pour traiter l'insomnie et les troubles du sommeil
In this issue of the Journal, Zachariae et al. present a randomized controlled trial among breast cancer survivors with insomnia, comparing an Internet‐delivered cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (iCBT‐I) with a waitlist control (1). Outcomes were assessed via the Internet, including insomnia severity, sleep quality, and fatigue, as well as sleep diaries over two weeks. The active intervention, iCBT-I, showed robust improvements in insomnia severity and sleep quality, and also reduced daytime symptoms of fatigue, with effects maintained over a six-week follow-up.
