Shift-Work Sleep Disorder Clinical Trial

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

Clinical Trial Summary

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.

Clinical Trial Description

This is a preliminary single-arm study. The study will last up to 6 weeks including the screening period. Subjects will receive active tDCS for 30 minutes before their scheduled work hours at least 3x/week for two consecutive weeks.
