Note: CSDI = Composite Sleep Disturbance Index; PSQI = Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index; WHO-5 = 5-item World Health Organization Well-Being Index.

a

Participants in the PedPRM randomized group had 104 weeks of continuous treatment, and participants in the placebo group had 91 weeks of continuous PedPRM treatment.

b

Baseline = 2 weeks single-blind placebo run-in before randomization.

c

Paired t test for the change from baseline levels, significance at p < .05.
