Study Summary
This pilot study is designed to test the feasibility, acceptability, and potential effectiveness of a mobile phone application (app) developed by the VA National Center for PTSD (VA NCPTSD) for use by Veterans with insomnia. The primary objective is to assess whether Veterans find the Insomnia Coach app to be satisfactory and feasible to use. Secondary objectives are to determine if use of the app improves subjective sleep quality and sleep parameters (e.g., sleep latency, wake after sleep onset, and total sleep time), as well as other important outcomes (e.g., daily functioning).
Primary Outcome
Composite of app usage data comprised of button taps, sections visited, self-entered data, number of visits and days used, and time spent on the app per visit. Various combinations and aggregations of these behaviors will be explored as best indicators to optimally summarize app use.
