A randomized trial of I‐SLEEP: A patient education and empowerment intervention on inpatient sleep duration and medical sleep disruptions
I-SLEEP did not increase sleep duration or continuity but reduced medical care disruptions. These findings suggest that patient education and empowerment may be effective strategies for reducing preventable care-related sleep disruptions in hospitals. Further research should examine implementation at scale and potential long-term benefits.
