Filter by:Currently, residents commonly experience dehydration and poor nutrition during nighttime duty hours as a result of heavy work load, lack of time to take nutrition and hydration breaks, or limited or no access to healthy food and drinks which may affect residents' work performance. The goal of this study is to compare the effects of two different meal compositions with no typical dietary practices (existing conditions) on work performance of the on-call residents during night shifts.
The purpose of this study is to test an app-based mindfulness training program for worry to see if it can help individuals decrease worry and improve sleep.
The aim of this trial is to investigate the effects of a single bout of aerobic exercise on sleep in patients with depression.
The study present findings from the implementation of myCompass, a fully automated self-help intervention of Australian origin for mild to moderate anxiety and depression, in a Swedish context. The study also investigates the usage of a specially designed research platform aimed at handling informed consent and online surveys.
1. To test whether internet-based exercises reduce the pain in knee OA 2. To check whether internet-based exercises improve the physical activity in the patients with knee OA. 3. To explore the correlation between sleep, knee inflammation (effusion, synovial hypertrophy or/and synovial hyper vascularity) and biomarkers of insulin resistance and knee pain.
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.
