Phase N/A

Nocturia means waking up at night to urinate. Insomnia is when you have trouble sleeping. This study is trying to help older adults, 60 years or older, who wake up at least twice at night to urinate and also have trouble sleeping. It's called the MINT study and will test a new way to treat both problems together.

First, doctors will check if you can join by asking questions and doing some tests. If you can join, you will be put in one of two groups. One group will get special lessons on how to sleep better and deal with nocturia. The other group will learn about general health. Sessions will be once a week for 5 weeks, with follow-up phone calls for 3 months.

  • Study lasts about 4 months with 5 weekly sessions and 4 follow-up assessments.
  • Participants need to be 60+ years and experience nocturia and insomnia.
  • Participants cannot have had recent therapy for insomnia or severe medical issues.
