An integrated behavioral treatment for improving nocturia and insomnia symptoms in older adults (MINT): study protocol for a multi-site randomized clinical trial
Overview
This study protocol outlines a multi-site randomized clinical trial evaluating an integrated behavioral treatment for older adults experiencing both nocturia and insomnia symptoms. The intervention combines cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) principles with pelvic floor muscle exercises, delivered over five weeks by a single clinician. The research aims to determine the efficacy of this coordinated approach compared to health education in reducing nighttime urination frequency and improving sleep quality.
