Neben einem Selbsttest zur ersten Einschätzung von Schlafstörungen, einem Schlaftagebuch zur Kontrolle der Schlafeffizienz, setzt das Programm wesentlich auf eine individualisierte Onlineberatung, die Hilfe und Unterstützung bei der Verbesserung der Schlafeffizienz leisten und zur Verminderung der Symptome des SWD beitragen kann. Die geplanten Projektziele im Sinne der Verbesserung von Schlafstörungen und Müdigkeit durch Onlineschlaf-beratung wurden bei der Stichprobe, die das Beratungsprogramm vollständig durchlaufen haben, erreicht.

The SCN (suprachiasmatic nucleus) is responsible for the central control of the biorhythm and the genetic prediction of the individual chronotype, whereas peripheral time cues such as light, social contacts and times of meals modulate the rhythmical activity of the body. Shift workers suffer from a disruption of the sleep-wake rhythm, insomnia and a lack of melatonin. These factors might trigger the development of breast cancer in female shift workers. The growing amount of data which indicate the high risk of breast cancer in female shift workers demonstrates the need for the implementation of prevention strategies against insomnia in shift workers. These strategies include regular sleep education courses on the prevention of sleep disorders in companies. The individual chronotype could be an important predictor for the adaptability to shift work.

Sie erzeugt Leidensdruck und verursacht zahlreiche gesundheitliche Probleme. Daher ist ihre Behandlung oft indiziert. Die Verhaltenstherapie ist auch bei älteren Menschen die Behandlung der Wahl. Zudem hat die Lichttherapie ihren Stellenwert. Pharmakologische Maßnahmen sind weniger gut untersucht, sind unklar in ihrem Nutzen bei einer Langzeitanwendung und sollten nur kurzfristig zur Reduktion von Leidensdruck sowie eingebunden in ein therapeutisches Gesamtkonzept zur Anwendung kommen.

Scientifically evaluated, structured programs for prevention and treatment are scarce. We developed an anonymous online cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) program. After successful completion of a feasibility study, we now start this prospective, randomized, controlled superiority trial to compare outcomes of two parallel groups, namely an intervention group and a waiting-list control-group. Additionally, we will compare these outcomes to those of a face-to-face CBT-I outpatient sample.MethodsCollaborating companies will offer our anonymous online intervention to their shift-working employees. Company physicians and counseling services will screen those interested for inclusion and exclusion criteria. Participants will receive access to our online service, where they will complete psychometric assessment and receive random assignment to either the intervention group or the waiting-list control group. Participants and providers will be aware of the group assignment. We aim to allocate at leastN= 60 participants to the trial. The intervention consists of psychoeducation, sleep restriction, stimulus control, relaxation techniques, and individual feedback delivered via four e-mail contacts. During the intervention, as well as during the waiting period, participants will fill out weekly sleep diaries. Immediately after completion of the program, the post-intervention assessment takes place. Participants in the control group will be able to participate in the program after all study assessments. To recruit an additional sample, collaborating outpatient sleep clinics will provide six sessions of standard face-to-face CBT-I to an ad hoc sample of shift working patients. We expect both the online and the face-to-face CBT-I interventions to have beneficial effects compared to the control group on the following primary outcomes: self-reported symptoms of depression and insomnia, sleep quality, and daytime sleepiness.ConclusionsThe online intervention allows shift workers to follow a CBT-I program independently of their working schedule and location. Forthcoming results might contribute to further improvement of prevention and therapy of sleep issues in shift workers.Trial registrationGerman Clinical Trials Register DRKSDRKS00017777.
