Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Sleep disorders are common among elderly, especially among those with mental health disorders. Impaired quality of sleep, in elderly, can lead to worsening of mental and physical health too. Due to high patient to doctor ratio in India and paucity of time in busy outpatients, there is inadequate information on causes of poor sleep quality in patients and a tendency to treat poor sleep with drugs. Studies on effectiveness of sleep hygiene techniques in insomnia also tend to exclude elderly. Thus, investigators have inadequate evidence on the applicability of such interventions in the elderly. In this study it is proposed to find the efficacy of a sleep hygiene behavioural intervention on severity of insomnia in elderly with sleep disturbances.
