What this trial studies
This randomized controlled trial evaluates the effectiveness of a digital-based multimodal sleep management program for college students suffering from insomnia. Participants will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group or a waitlist control group. The study will assess various sleep-related outcomes, including insomnia severity, daytime sleepiness, and psychological health indices such as anxiety and depression. Measurements will be taken at baseline, immediately after the intervention, and four weeks post-intervention to determine the program's impact.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are full-time college students aged 18 to 26 who have been experiencing insomnia for at least three months.
Not a fit: Patients currently using other sleep program apps or those taking hypnotics, sedatives, or antidepressants may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this program could significantly improve sleep quality and mental health for college students experiencing insomnia.
How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promising results with digital sleep interventions, indicating potential for success in this approach.
