NCT ID: NCT06231641 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Shift-Work Sleep Disorder

The Effects of Lemborexant on the Ability to Sleep During Daytime

Start date: January 11, 2024
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This study aim to evaluate whether a dose of 5 mg of lemborexant, as compared to a placebo, may improve daytime recovery sleep, without producing lingering sleepiness during wakefulness, using a 3-day simulated night shift protocol in the lab under constant monitoring.

NCT ID: NCT04693182 Recruiting - Insomnia Clinical Trials

Health Promoting Work Schedules: The Effect of Abolishing Quick Returns

HeWoS
Start date: January 1, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Introduction In shift work, quick returns refer to transitions between two shifts with less than 11 hours available rest time. Twenty-three per cent of employees in European countries reported having quick returns. Quick returns are related to short sleep duration, fatigue, sleepiness, work-related accidents, and sickness absence. The present study is the first randomized controlled trial (RCT) to investigate the effect of a work schedule without quick returns for six months, compared to a work schedule that maintains quick returns during the same time frame. Methods and analysis A parallel-group cluster RCT in a target sample of more than 4000 healthcare workers at Haukeland University Hospital in Norway will be conducted. More than 70 hospital units will be assessed for eligibility and randomized to a work schedule without quick returns for six months or continue with a schedule that maintains quick returns. The primary outcome is objective records of sickness absence; secondary outcomes are questionnaire data (n ≈ 4000 invited) on sleep and functioning, physical and psychological health, work-related accidents, and turnover intention. For a subsample, sleep diaries and objective sleep registrations with radar technology (n ≈ 50) will be collected. Ethics and dissemination The study protocol was approved by the Regional Committee for Medical and Health Research Ethics in Western Norway (2020/200386). Findings from the trial will be disseminated in peer-reviewed journals and presented at national and international conferences. Exploratory analyses of potential mediators and moderators will be reported. User-friendly outputs will be disseminated to relevant stakeholders, unions and other relevant societal groups.

NCT ID: NCT03980340 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Sleep Disorders, Circadian Rhythm

Breath Biomarkers for Sleep Loss and Circadian Timing

Start date: January 28, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Insufficient sleep has both health and safety risks, but currently there are no quick, accurate and inexpensive ways to measure sleep deficiency. The current study aims to use a cutting-edge technology, small molecule analysis (e.g. metabolomics), to detect compounds in breath that reliably change with sleep-wake state and those whose levels vary by time of day.

NCT ID: NCT03956745 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Sleep Disorders, Circadian Rhythm

Biomarkers for Circadian Timing in Healthy Adults

Start date: June 1, 2021
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Study investigators want to learn more about the underlying biological clock and to see if the timing of that clock can be estimated from a single blood sample.

NCT ID: NCT03879044 Terminated - Clinical trials for Shift-Work Sleep Disorder

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Therapy for Sleepiness Related to Shift Work Disorder (tDCS-SWORD)

tDCS-SWORD
Start date: March 20, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

1. To determine the effects of tDCS on subjective measures of sleepiness in night-shift workers with shift work disorder. 2. To determine the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on vigilance in night-shift workers with shift work disorder.

NCT ID: NCT03813654 Completed - Clinical trials for Shift-Work Sleep Disorder

Sleep and Circadian Treatments for Shift Workers

Start date: August 20, 2020
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

There are three components to this study: a Field Trial, a Shift Worker Survey, and Focus Groups. The Investigators will study the effectiveness, feasibility, and acceptability of an 8-h sleep intervention in older night workers in an operational environment. The overall goal of the Field Trial is to minimize sleep deficiency and negative outcomes resulting from that, including sleepiness and performance impairments during night shift work. The Shift Worker Survey is designed to understand some of the demographic and operational factors that enable or inhibit the ability of individual shift workers to adopt this intervention. The Focus Groups are designed to glean in-depth information from older shift workers who indicate that they are unable or unwilling to adopt an 8-h sleep timing intervention. Understanding these factors will assist in refining and targeting the intervention to those individuals who will be most likely to benefit from the intervention sleep timing strategy.

NCT ID: NCT03153917 Completed - Clinical trials for Shift-Work Sleep Disorder

Biological Rhythms Impact of 12 Hours Shift Work

MELACTI-12
Start date: June 2, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Nonstandard time-schedules work are widespread in the world of work. Shift and night work have been shown to be responsible for a desynchronization of biological rhythms, associated with melatonin secretion impairment and sleep disturbances. However, while health consequences of night and shift work are widely recognized and represent a major public health concern (High Authority of Health 2012 Recommendations and National Agency for Public Health Food, Environment and Work 2016 Report), the mechanisms by which the circadian system is affected by shift work remain poorly understood. Indeed most of the studies in the fields are cross-sectional, based on few blood or urinary samples in a single work position, in workers whose shift work patterns are often misidentified and heterogeneous. Moreover, few studies have assessed melatonin secretion alterations in relation to objective sleep measurement (actigraphy). The aim of this study is to assess the dynamics of melatonin secretion adaptation in 12-hour shift work and to correlate these data to sleep-wake cycle recording.

NCT ID: NCT03087435 Not yet recruiting - Depression Clinical Trials

Well-Being in Medical Residents in the HIBA

Start date: December 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

It is necessary and important to design tools to evaluate a central aspect of medical residents formation. The research group has been working with resident well-being since a few years in order to improve the global quality of the education and working environment. The investigators present a plan to develop and validate a tool to assess residents well-being. A tool designed with this characteristics would be of much importance to monitored as a security event, managed and actively promoted well being in residents.

NCT ID: NCT02978053 Completed - Clinical trials for Shift-Work Sleep Disorder

Light Treatment to Shift-working Nurses

Start date: November 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This project examines 1) the effects of appropriately timed bright light on adaptation (in terms of sleep and sleepiness) to three consecutive night shifts; and 2) the effects of such bright light on re-adaptation (in terms of sleep and sleepiness) to a day-oriented schedule after the night shift period.

NCT ID: NCT02901860 Completed - Clinical trials for Shift-Work Sleep Disorder

Shift Work and Risk of Cardio-vascular Disease

Start date: January 2012
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this research is to test the hypothesis that those with non-traditional work schedules (e.g. shift workers) have a higher cardio-metabolic risk than those with traditional work schedules (e.g. day workers), and that both accumulated sleep debt and the degree of circadian disruption predict the elevated cardio-metabolic risk. The findings of this research are expected to increase our understanding of physiologic tolerance to non-traditional work schedules and provide the basis for the development of methods for the early detection of adverse health effects and determine coping strategies for the millions of workers with non-traditional work schedules.
