Filter by:Ulcerative colitis(UC) is one of the two main forms of inflammatory bowel disease(IBD), which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. Previous studies have demonstrated that more than 60% of IBD patients have sleep disorders, which is emerging as an important risk factor for disease recurrence and poor prognosis. However, the mechanisms by which sleep disorders regulates the occurrence and development of IBD remain undefined. This study aims to explore the clinical characteristics of ulcerative colitis patients with sleep disorders based on the microbiota-gut-brain axis, to analyze the effects of sleep disorders on autonomic nervous function, gut microbiota, and metabolites in UC patients.
Pep19 is a naturally occurring peptide (protein) that triggers loss of body fat. It has been certified Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) at up to 3.8 grams per day and may be included in various foods. Pep19 has no effect on the brain, heart, pancreas or skeletal muscle. It is highly purified, not allergenic or mutagenic, and free of microbes, metals and other contaminants. Preliminary, open-label, uncontrolled studies have shown that Pep19 is well tolerated in rodents, dogs, and humans. This placebo-controlled study will evaluate the effects of two doses of Pep19™ -- 2 mg and 5 mg - on quality of life and sleep quality in obese subjects.
The goal of this is randomized controlled study to examine the effect of early mobilization on sleep, physiological parameters, and length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU). The hypothesis are: Hypothesis I: Early mobilization positively affects the sleep quality of patients. Hypothesis II: Early mobilization positively affects the physiological parameters of patients (respiratory rate, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, pain). Hypothesis III: Early mobilization shortens the length of stay of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU). Early mobilization will begin in the experimental group after sedation is discontinued within the first 12 hours and its effects disappear. In early mobilization, in the evaluation of in-bed mobilization, physiological parameters (respiratory rate, sPO 2, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, pain) will be evaluated and recorded in the supine, semi-fowler position. In out-of-bed mobilization, the patient's physiological parameters (respiratory rate, sPO 2, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, pain) will be determined and recorded before mobilization and when the head is in a 45˚ upward position. Surgical wounds and dressing areas, if any, are protected, drains are identified, care is taken not to remove equipment such as urinary catheters or nasogastric tubes, when the patient is seated on the edge of the bed with the help of a nurse, when he/she is stood up next to the bed with the support of the nurse, when he/she is made to sit in a chair next to the bed and when he/she is in a chair. While sitting, 1st minute, 5th minute, 10th minute respiratory rate, sPO2, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature values and pain levels will be recorded and these data will be evaluated on their own. During mobilization, if the patient develops chest pain, arrhythmia, hypertension (systolic pressure>160 mmHg), or hypotension (systolic pressure<90 mmHg), tachypnea, or hypoxia, a break will be taken and the physician will be consulted. The same procedures will be repeated during the mobilization of the patient in the first 24-36 hours and the necessary records will be made by the researcher. Control Group: After admission to the Cardiovascular Surgery ICU, the type, purpose and implementation process of the study will be explained to the patients, and a routine/standard postoperative mobilization procedure will be applied to the patients in the control group. Accordingly, patients will be mobilized in the first 24 hours after surgery, and in the evaluation of in-bed mobilization, their physiological parameters (respiratory rate, sPO 2, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, pain) will be evaluated and recorded in the supine, semi-fowler position. In out-of-bed mobilization, the patient's physiological parameters (respiratory rate, sPO 2, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature, pain) will be determined and recorded before mobilization and when the head is in a 45˚ upward position. Again, arterial blood gas monitoring of the patients in the control group will be performed at maximum 4-hour intervals, and respiratory parameters will be frequently evaluated and recorded.
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of aromatherapy on sleep quality and anxiety in patients undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer.
This prospective observational study enrolled adult volunteers for a sleep quality research study through a questionnaire survey distributed via a WeChat two-dimensional code from May 2021 to April 2022. Participants were exposed to flicker stimulation through a light and sound device for a duration of 8 weeks with daily monitoring.
The aim of this study is to determine the relative effectiveness of monocular and binocular light exposures, with and without selective blue-blocking filtering, on nocturnal melatonin suppression, subjective sleepiness, and visual performance of night shift workers.
This study adopted an experimental research design to explore the effects of a warm water foot bath program on fatigue, sleep, and heart rate variability in patients with heart failure. The subjects of the study were heart failure patients in the cardiology outpatient department. The patients were randomly assigned to the experimental group and the control group. The control group received routine care and wore an actigraph. The experimental group received 4 additional care in addition to routine care and wearing an actigraph. Weekly warm water foot bath, data collection includes subjective sleep quality and fatigue level, physiological measurements: sleep quality-sleep time and efficiency, and heart rate variability index.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of melatonin on post operative sleeping quality, anxiety, and post-operative opioid requirements in adults post coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of video game-based exercises applied in addition to the cardiac rehabilitation program applied after open heart surgery, on pulmonary function and functional independence in the acute state. After ethics committee approval is received; Patients who volunteer to participate in the study will be divided into two groups by simple random method. The first group will be given a 12-week cardiac rehabilitation program after bypass surgery, and the second group will be given video game-based exercise training together with the cardiac rehabilitation program for 12 weeks. It is planned to apply the cardiac rehabilitation program to both groups twice a day during the postoperative period until hospital discharge. The patient&#39;s cardiac rehabilitation program after hospital discharge will be carried out in the cardiac rehabilitation unit three days a week. Cardiac r in the video game-based exercise group In addition to rehabilitation; "Breathing Labs Breathing Games" exercises will continue during the hospital stay, and Xbox games will continue after discharge. Evaluations will be made in the preoperative period (within one week before surgery) and at the end of the 12th postoperative week.
Background: Parents of healthy neonates commonly face sleep disruptions and disturbances after delivery. Notably, increasing challenges are evident among parents of ill infants who required clinical care after birth . These challenges can adversely affect psychological adaptation and parental efficacy which consequently impacting the infant's development. It is crucial to develop an effective parent-child sleep intervention for improving parent-infant sleep and mental well-being and uneventful family health outcomes. Aim: To develop and evaluate the effects of parent-child sleep intervention on improving sleep quality, psychological health, and infant health in parents of infants at intermediate care nursery. Methods: A randomized controlled trial will be conducted at the intermediate care nursery of a level III medical center at Taipei city. A total of 102 pairs of parents and infants will be recruited and randomly assigned to the experimental group or the control group. The intervention program consists of (1) parent-child sleep education, (2) heart rate variability biofeedback training, and (3) counseling and support. Data collection will be multiple time points, including baseline, 1 month postpartum, 3 months postpartum, and 6 months postpartum. Anticipated results: Developing and evaluating a parent-child sleep intervention for postpartum parents and their infants. The findings will be an empirical evidence for pediatric care and family health promotion.
