Filter by:The purpose of this study is to: To test a new intervention for sleep disturbance among hematopoietic cell transplant survivors. About 60 hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) survivors will participate in this intervention. Preliminary Steps: To conduct qualitative interviews with patients, caregivers, and clinicians regarding sleep disturbance in hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) survivors and on preferences for a new mHealth intervention for sleep disturbance. About 30 individuals (10 HCT survivors, 10 caregivers and 5-10 clinicians) will participate in this part of the study.
The investigators are performing this research study to understand the role of sleep disturbance on the incidence/severity of delirium after surgery. The investigators will study the brain using a polysomnography device (PSG), which records the brain's electrical activity during sleep.
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic type of eczema affecting approximately 10% of adults and 12% of children in the US. The intense itching (pruritus) associated with AD can be significantly disruptive to sleep and quality of life for both the patients and their caregivers. AD is challenging to describe and measure. The purpose of this study is to see if we can reliably measure how much people with AD scratch and how scratching interferes with sleep and quality of life by using digital sensors, sleep studies and patient-reported information.
This is a randomized control trial to test the effectiveness of therapeutic massage on the sleep quality and the stress levels in women that have completed their treatment for breast cancer.
Insomnia is an extremely common and poorly treated problem in patients with substance use disorders (SUD)s undergoing rehabilitation treatment in a residential facility. The persistence of insomnia in substance use disorders (SUDs) may be associated with tonic levels of drug craving. Insomnia and craving can predispose to relapse in patients with SUDs. Insomnia and SUDs are independently associated with increased cortisol indicating physiological dysregulation of the stress response system including the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. Hence sleep disturbance, craving and increased cortisol leads to relapse in SUD subjects. Suvorexant, an orexin 1 / 2 receptor antagonist, approved by the FDA for the treatment of sleep disturbance in subjects with primary Insomnia. Previous animal studies report Orexin 1 receptor antagonist decreases craving and normal the HPA axis. However, the efficacy of suvorexant on sleep and craving in SUD subjects is not known. The primary aims of this study are- 1. To determine if suvorexant will improve sleep quality (increased total sleep time, fewer awakenings), as measured through wrist actigraphy and the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) in SUDs. 2. To assess whether or not SUDs patients treated with suvorexant endorse scale items on a modified abuse liability assessment battery. 3. To determine if daily reports of mood, stress, craving and sleep using Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA data) change during the course of the study as patients with SUDs are treated with suvorexant. 4. To determine if patients taking suvorexant will have a decrease in total daily salivary cortisol over the course of the study by collecting samples at five time points in a day, for two consecutive days at two different times in the study.
Randomised trial comparing double balloon catheter for induction of labor between inpatient and outpatient groups. The investigators assess how sleep disturbances and depression of the mother affect to the pain during balloon catheter induction of labour.
This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of doxazosin will assess doxazosin's effectiveness for PTSD nightmares, subjective sleep quality, and non-nightmare PTSD symptoms in adult men and women veterans with full and partial-syndromal PTSD.
The aims of this survey are to assess the relationships between exposure to screens of digital media devices, sleep patterns, and daily function such as subjective sleepiness and attention abilities in adult Israel population
The aim of this clinical trial is to study the effect of an intravenous infusion of lidocaïne in a multimodal analgesic protocol on the architecture sleep during the first postoperative night.
Poor sleep quality is common in patients with heart failure. The limited available evidence intimates that improving sleep quality in patients with heart failure may improve morbidity and quality of life in this patient population. However, there is a paucity of evidence assessing the use of effective pharmacologic therapies in heart failure. The nonbenzodiazepine, GABA receptor agonist, zolpidem, has been found to have considerable benefits over traditional benzodiazepines as a soporific medication. The investigators hypothesize that zolpidem will safely improve sleep quality in patients with heart failure.
