Treating Insomnia with High Risk of Depression Using Therapist-Guided Digital Cognitive, Behavioral, and Circadian Rhythm Support Interventions to Prevent Worsening of Depressive Symptoms: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Abstract: <b><i>Introduction:</i></b> The global disease burden of major depressive disorder urgently requires prevention in high-risk individuals, such as recently discovered insomnia subtypes. Previous studies targeting insomnia with fully automated eHealth interventions to prevent depression are inconclusive: dropout was high and likely biased, and depressive symptoms in untreated participants on average improved rather than worsened. <b><i>Objective:</i></b> This rando… Show more

“…After application, we verified by phone that participants met the inclusion criteria and insomnia criteria when applicable. Exclusion criteria for both participants with insomnia and controls relevant for the current analyses were: a current diagnosis of (1) current major depressive disorder, (2) current treatment with antidepressant medication, (3) current CBT-I treatment, (4) sleep apnea syndrome, moderate to severe restless legs syndrome or severe periodic limb movement disorder, (5) self-reported diagnosis of a severe neurological or psychiatric disorder, (6) self-reported severe physical or mental impairment due to stroke, or traumatic head injury, (7) current shift work (but see [ 18 ] for a complete list of exclusion criteria). The use of sleep medication was permitted and monitored (see Supplementary Material and Supplementary Tables S1-S4 for detailed information on sleep medication monitoring and results of nonmedicated patients only).…”

“…One step further will address the primary prevention of mental disorders. There is a strong probability that adequate insomnia treatment will reduce the incidence and recurrence of depressive episodes and anxiety disorders (Benz et al, 2020; Cheng et al, 2019; Irwin et al, 2022; Leerssen et al, 2021). In a first step, one might address risk groups especially prone to mental illness and offer sleep treatment versus a control condition and compare longitudinal outcomes, as recently demonstrated by Leerssen et al (2021).…”

“…Within our group we developed the guided online iCBT-I intervention called i-Sleep. This intervention was tested in four RCT's covering different populations with insomnia complaints, showing large effect sizes on self-reported quality of sleep, sleep-diary derived sleep continuity and secondary outcomes such as symptoms of depression ( van Straten et al, 2013 ; van der Zweerde et al, 2020 ; van der Zweerde et al, 2018 ; Leerssen et al, 2021 ). Adding CBT-I to standard treatment in patients suffering from BPD and insomnia complaints may be promising, not only to reduce sleep disturbances, but also to mitigate BPD symptoms.…”
