This is a single-center, randomized controlled trial study design. Enrolled participants have a cardiovascular condition for which they are undergoing implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) therapy and comorbid insomnia. Participants were randomized to a behavioral intervention for insomnia in ICD patients or a waitlist control. The treatment intervention period lasted 4 weeks with a telephone booster session administered at 3 month follow-up. The objective of the study is to examine the impact of a brief therapy combining established behavioral approaches to treating insomnia with novel components to target negative cognitions and anxieties associated with cardiac disease and ICD implantation. Primary patient outcomes include sleep, psychological functioning, daytime functioning, cardiac functioning, cognitive performance, and ICD adjustment.
