Trial Outcomes & Findings for Sleep, Hypertension, and Nocturia: a Multicomponent Approach for Comorbid Illnesses (NCT NCT05419830)
NCT ID: NCT05419830
Last Updated: 2024-12-17
Results Overview
The mean sleep time systolic blood pressure dip will be quantified by calculating the difference between daytime mean systolic pressure and nighttime mean systolic pressure expressed as a percentage of the day value for each participant across the 48-hour recording period comparing baseline and post-intervention

Participant Flow
Recruitment started June 2022 through September 2023. The initial screening was completed telephonically and once screened eligible, the interested participants underwent study related assessments and procedures at the study research suite - Continence Research Unit at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Montefiore Hospital located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
After the telephone screening, eligible participants were scheduled for the first in-person study visit. No study procedures were performed till informed consent was obtained.
Participant milestones
| Measure |
AM (Morning) Antihypertensive Dosing- Control Arm
participants will be asked to continue taking their antihypertensive medication within an hour of awakening
AM antihypertensive dosing: participants will be asked to continue taking their antihypertensive medication within an hour of awakening
|
BBTI Arm
participants will receive the brief behavioral treatment for insomnia (BBTI) by the study nurse. Participants will also be asked to take their antihypertensive medication within an hour of awakening
BBTI: Participants randomized to BBTI will receive 45- to 60-minute individual intervention session followed by a 30-minute follow-up session 2 weeks later, and 20-minute telephone calls after 1 and 3 weeks. BBTI will focus on four behaviors that promote sleep and discussion of homeostatic and circadian mechanisms of human sleep regulation. These four interventions are simple to conceptualize and implement, and constitute the core of efficacious multi-modal behavioral treatments for insomnia.

PM (Evening) Antihypertensive Dosing or Chronotherapy Arm
participants will be asked to switch their conventional once daily non-diuretic antihypertensive to bedtime
PM antihypertensive dosing or Chronotherapy: participants will be asked to switch their conventional once daily non-diuretic antihypertensive to bedtime
