Abstract
Given the high prevalence of physician burnout, strategies are needed to improve physician mental health and well-being. As sleep disturbance predicts burnout, there is a need to evaluate evidence-based, potentially scalable treatments that target physician sleep and sleep-related health. This pilot implementation study enrolled physicians and gave them access to the Sleep Healthy Using the Internet (SHUT-i), a six-session self-guided Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBTi) treatment program. Among 34 consented physicians, 44.1% engaged at least once with the platform. Among those, 23.5% completed all six sessions. Among the eight completers, the program's session length, time requirements, and ease of access received high satisfaction ratings, and 75% reported they would recommend the program to other clinicians. In exploring effectiveness, SHUT-i was associated with reductions in insomnia severity, sleep disturbance, and sleep-related impairment post-intervention. This pilot study demonstrates the promise of an evidence-based, web-based CBTi program for improving insomnia among physicians.
期刊介绍：
Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine focuses on clinical sleep medicine. Its emphasis is publication of papers with direct applicability and/or relevance to the clinical practice of sleep medicine. This includes clinical trials, clinical reviews, clinical commentary and debate, medical economic/practice perspectives, case series and novel/interesting case reports. In addition, the journal will publish proceedings from conferences, workshops and symposia sponsored by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine or other organizations related to improving the practice of sleep medicine.
