Interventions

  • Sleep hygiene/extension intervention — BEHAVIORAL
    The 60-minute sleep hygiene/extension educational session include the following: This session will consist of questionnaires, handouts, videos, and a discussion. Topic examples include information on establishing a comfortable sleep environment, including strategies on how to extend sleep duration by a maximum of 1 hour over the duration of the 8-week trial for an average of 7.5 minutes per week, not to exceed 15 minutes per week. Participants will also receive educational brochures and a sleep diary.
  • Control care — BEHAVIORAL
    The 60-minute educational session will address sleep physiology but not sleep hygiene. This session will consist of questionnaires, handouts, videos, and a discussion. Participants will receive an educational brochure.

Study Details

The purpose of this study is to examine the impact that sleep duration has on blood pressure (BP) levels during sleep. The investigator will examine the effect of an 8-week sleep hygiene/extension intervention vs. control on sleep BP.

Arms

  • Experimental: Sleep Hygiene/Extension Intervention
    Participants with short sleep duration will receive a 60-minute educational session on sleep hygiene/extension. Over an 8-week period, participants will receive weekly phone or Zoom video calls from the Educational Research Coordinator to review additional materials including handouts and/or complete questionnaires about sleep. Participants will undergo sleep tracking/monitoring during the 8-week period, and repeat BP/heart rate monitoring for 24 hours after the 8-week period.
  • Active Comparator: Control Condition
    Participants with short sleep duration will receive a 60-minute educational session on sleep physiology. Over an 8-week period, participants will receive weekly phone or Zoom video calls from the Educational Research Coordinator to review additional materials including handouts. Participants will undergo sleep tracking/monitoring during the 8-week period, and repeat BP/heart rate monitoring for 24 hours after the 8-week period.
