A study showed that an in-home, voice-activated cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) program can improve insomnia symptoms among breast cancer survivors. The program was found to be effective in improving sleep quality, wake after sleep onset, sleep onset latency, and sleep efficiency, but did not have an impact on total sleep time. The study included 70 breast cancer survivors with insomnia who were randomly assigned to the CBT-I program or an educational control for six weeks. The results suggest that voice-activated CBT could be a promising approach to address insomnia in this population and should be further explored for scalability and effectiveness.
