Objectives:

Mood disorders in youth are associated with social and academic impairment, and difficulties within the family system. Engagement in sleep hygiene, and family- and technology-based treatment models can address these impairments. The current study evaluates changes in functioning for youth who participated in a family-based partial hospitalization program (PHP) for mood disorders. Child and parent views of the importance and application of sleep hygiene and utilization of technology-based interventions were also evaluated.

Methods:

474 youth diagnosed with a primary mood disorder and their caregivers participated in a family-based PHP that addressed the role of sleep hygiene, technology use for symptom management, and components of evidence-based treatments in ameliorating mood disorders. Participants were evaluated 1-, 3-, and 6-month following treatment.

Results:

Participants demonstrated improved functioning in social, home, and school domains. The majority of participants and parents found the sleep hygiene content and application important or very important as a component of treatment. Parents were significantly more likely than youth to be interested in using technology to access after care resources.

Conclusions:

Findings revealed significantly less impairment in functioning at follow-up. Parents and youth reported interest in sleep hygiene strategies as part of a comprehensive treatment for mood disorders as well as the use of technology-based resources to assist with treatment. Limitations include sample demographics and follow-up sample size.

青少年和家长报告基于睡眠的干预和利用技术资源治疗儿科情绪障碍

目标：

青少年的情绪障碍与社会和学业障碍以及家庭系统中的困难有关。参与睡眠卫生以及基于家庭和技术的治疗模式可以解决这些障碍。目前的研究评估了参加基于家庭的情绪障碍部分住院计划 (PHP) 的青少年的功能变化。还评估了儿童和家长对睡眠卫生的重要性和应用以及基于技术的干预措施的利用的看法。

方法：

474 名被诊断患有原发性情绪障碍的青少年及其护理人员参与了一项以家庭为基础的 PHP，该项目涉及睡眠卫生的作用、症状管理技术的使用以及改善情绪障碍的循证治疗的组成部分。参与者在治疗后 1 个月、3 个月和 6 个月进行了评估。

结果：

参与者在社交、家庭和学校领域表现出改善的功能。大多数参与者和家长认为睡眠卫生内容和应用作为治疗的组成部分很重要或非常重要。与青少年相比，父母更有可能对使用技术获取善后资源感兴趣。

结论：

调查结果显示，在随访中的功能损害显着减少。父母和青少年报告对睡眠卫生策略感兴趣，作为情绪障碍综合治疗的一部分，以及使用基于技术的资源来协助治疗。限制包括样本人口统计和后续样本量。
