Move and Snooze: Adding Insomnia Treatment to an Exercise Program to Improve Pain Outcomes in Older Adults With Knee Osteoarthritis
This research will compare the effectiveness of a remotely delivered personalized exercise coaching plus an evidence-based sleep improvement intervention to remotely delivered personalized exercise coaching alone for knee osteoarthritis pain. The study team hypothesize that the combined intervention will result in greater improvements in patient-reported pain intensity, recorded with real-time data capture, than remotely delivered exercise coaching alone.
• Self-reported physician diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis
• Persistent knee osteoarthritis-related pain of at least moderate intensity (as indicated in the protocol)
• Indication of persistent symptoms of insomnia, determined by scoring on the Sleep Condition Indicator questionnaire (as indicated in the protocol)
• If receiving medication for pain or sleep disturbances, having had no change in prescription in the previous three months and be willing to make no other changes to medications for pain or sleep during the active study period.
• Adequate literacy level to ensure web-based surveys can be completed independently, as assessed using a brief 3-item literacy level screener
