CBT-I benefits in stable HF are mediated by reduced dysfunctional sleep beliefs; extends mechanistic insight into behavioral interventions for comorbid insomnia.
Redeker et al. (2017) conducted an RCT in Stable heart failure (n=51). Group cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) vs. Attention control (HF self-management education) was evaluated on Dysfunctional Beliefs and Attitudes about Sleep (DBAS). Group cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia significantly improved dysfunctional sleep-related cognitions compared to attention control, mediating improvements in insomnia severity and fatigue.
