Brief Behavioral Sleep Intervention for Obesity Prevention in Primary Care (NCT06810557)
Feasibility and Preliminary Efficacy of a Brief Behavioral Sleep Intervention for Excessive Weight Gain Prevention in Primary Care
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The goal of this study is to compare two different approaches to help families with children 6-11 years enhance nighttime sleep: 1) working one-on-one with a nurse to learn effective behavioral strategies to try to improve children's sleep or 2) receiving education on a good night's sleep and its benefits. Participating families will meet with a nurse 6 times or receive 6 educational handouts. Participating families will also complete three assessments (start of the study, 2 months and 6 months) during which study questionnaires will be completed, participating children will wear devices that assess sleep and physical activity, participating families will report on what the child ate on two separate days and will be measured for height and weight.
