Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The main outcome sleep efficiency will be evaluated at baseline (T0), 3 (T3), 6 (T6) and 12 (T12) months after randomization. Sleep efficiency will be measured with a 7-day watch Actigraph (GTX3+) and sleep log. SE contains information on difficulties falling asleep as well as difficulties staying asleep and is therefore often considered the best primary outcome measure as it represents different types of sleep problems.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Insomnia: Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) Quality of life: Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory (PedsQL) Fatigue: Checklist Individual Strenght (CIS) Depressive and Anxiety symptoms: Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) Chronic stress: Chronic Stress Questionnaire for Children and Adolescents (CSQ-CA) General questionnaire will also be assessed with suicidality and current psychological treatment for psychopathology on T0 and subjective pain, sleep medication use on T3, T6 and T12. Post-treatment intervention feedback and satisfaction of i-Sleep will be evaluated at T3 with a a 20-item satisfaction questionnaire, adherence and intervention feedback per session.
