Treating preschooler behavioural sleep problems via parent‐mediated telehealth: A randomized controlled trial

A brief, behavioural sleep intervention delivered via videoconferencing for young children is acceptable to parents and represents an efficacious and convenient alternative to face-to-face treatment for sleep that has secondary effects on nighttime fears and broader anxiety issues. Universal Trial Number (UTN): U1111-1264-8191. Australian and New Zealand Clinical Trial Registry (ANZCTR): 12621000466842 retrospective. The trial was registered retrospectively as the application for registration was submitted after the first participant was registered for the programme. This was a clerical oversite of the authors as to the timing of registration submission. The sleep diaries included in the registration of the trial were not analysed due to significant missing data in the CAU condition. Additionally, some of the secondary outcomes in the trial registry will be published in a separate, paper, which focuses on parents' impressions of the programme and parenting factors.

Abstract

A brief, behavioural sleep intervention delivered via videoconferencing for young children is acceptable to parents and represents an efficacious and convenient alternative to face-to-face treatment for sleep that has secondary effects on nighttime fears and broader anxiety issues. Universal Trial Number (UTN): U1111-1264-8191. Australian and New Zealand Clinical Trial Registry (ANZCTR): 12621000466842 retrospective. The trial was registered retrospectively as the application for registration was submitted after the first participant was registered for the programme. This was a clerical oversite of the authors as to the timing of registration submission. The sleep diaries included in the registration of the trial were not analysed due to significant missing data in the CAU condition. Additionally, some of the secondary outcomes in the trial registry will be published in a separate, paper, which focuses on parents' impressions of the programme and parenting factors.
