The MINT study is a research project aimed at helping older adults with two common problems: nocturia and insomnia. Nocturia is when you wake up at night to urinate, and insomnia means having trouble sleeping. This study is testing a new way to treat these issues together to see if it improves overall quality of life.
Participants in the study will be 60 years or older and have at least two episodes of nocturia each night. The study will involve answering questionnaires, having medical check-ups, and wearing a small device on your wrist to track sleep for one week. If you qualify, you will be randomly placed in one of two groups: one receiving therapy for sleep and nocturia, and the other receiving health education.
- Participation lasts about 4 months, with 2 initial visits, 5 weekly sessions, and a few follow-up calls.
- Both in-person and remote sessions are available.
- You will not be paid for participating, but you may benefit from improved sleep and fewer nocturia episodes.
