abstract = {To reduce sleep problems in people living with dementia
using a multi-component intervention.Cluster-randomized
controlled study with two parallel groups and a follow-up of
16 weeks.Using external concealed randomization, 24 nursing
homes (NH) were allocated either to the intervention group
(IG, 12 clusters, 126 participants) or the control group (12
clusters, 116 participants).Participants were eligible if
they had dementia or severe cognitive impairment, at least
two sleep problems, and residence of at least two weeks in a
NH.The 16-week intervention consists of six components: (1)
assessment of sleep-promoting activities and environmental
factors in NHs, (2) implementation of two 'sleep nurses,'
(3) basic education, (4) advanced education for staff, (5)
workshops to develop sleep-promoting concepts, and (6)
written information and education materials. The control
group (CG) received standard care.Primary outcome was ≥
two sleep problems after 16 weeks assessed with the Sleep
Disorders Inventory (SDI).Twenty-two clusters (IG = 10, CG =
12) with 191 participants completed the study. At baseline,
$90\%$ of people living with dementia in the IG and $93\%$
in the CG had at least two sleep problems. After 16 weeks,
rates were $59.3\%$ (IG) vs $83.8\%$ (CG), respectively, a
difference of $-24.5\%$ $(95\%$ CI, $-46.3\%$ - $-2.7\%;$
cluster-adjusted odds ratio 0.281; $95\%$ CI 0.087-0.909).
Secondary outcomes showed a significant difference only for
SDI scores after eight and 16 weeks.The MoNoPol-Sleep
intervention reduced sleep problems of people living with
dementia in NH compared to standard care.},
