Filter by:This feasibility phase II randomized controlled trial examines the preliminary efficacy of our standardized four-week YOCAS©® (Yoga for Cancer Survivors) intervention that is delivered virtually on insomnia and sleep quality in cancer survivors. Insomnia can be described as excessive daytime napping, difficulty falling asleep, difficulty staying asleep, or waking up earlier than desired. The vast majority of patients with cancer experience some form of sleep impairment post-treatment. Yoga is safe, feasible, and effective for improving insomnia and sleep quality in cancer survivors. However, most of the yoga intervention was delivered in person. With the challenges and the social distancing regulation regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, adapting to virtual behavioral intervention is critically important and needed. Whether the yoga intervention delivered virtually to survivors provides a similar benefit of improving insomnia and sleep quality is unknown.
The objective of this study is to elucidate the potential mechanisms responsible for the increased risk of cardiovascular disease among patients with hypertension and comorbid insomnia.
The objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of a sleep intervention on improving cognitive function in older adults with symptoms of insomnia, determine the association between change in sleep measures and change in cognitive function, and examine the efficacy of the sleep intervention on reducing the rate of Aβ deposition. Participants, ages 60-85, will be randomly assigned to a six-week sleep intervention program. A sub-group of fifty participants will undergo Florbetapir-Positron-emission tomography (PET) imaging during the one-year reassessment to examine the efficacy of the sleep intervention on reducing the rate of Aβ accumulation from baseline to one-year post-intervention.
The proposed study is a multiple baseline design pilot study which seeks to evaluate the impact of digitally administered CBT-I, using the Sleepio platform, for the treatment of insomnia disorder among Veterans with co-morbid psychopathology. In addition, information related to acceptability and feasibility of the intervention among a Veteran sample will be obtained.
This two-part study seeks to improve symptoms such as pain and sleep problems after concussion, or mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). Study I evaluates symptoms of mTBI through a series of 10 office sessions in which musical tones are echoed, or mirrored back in real time, to reflect one's own brain activity. Those who take part in the study will be randomly assigned to receive either tones that are based on their brain activity/brainwaves, or random tones. Study II evaluates symptoms of mTBI through either 10 office sessions of the same acoustic stimulation linked to brain activity/brainwaves as Study I compared to 5 office sessions of acoustic stimulation plus intermittent very low level electrical stimulation of the scalp linked to brain activity.
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether Nexalin Trans-cranial Electrical Stimulation (TES) is a viable adjunctive treatment of substance use treatments.
There is evidence that CBT for insomnia (CBTi) is an effective treatment for sleep disturbance both as a primary problem and when co-morbid with other health problems, such as chronic pain. This study will investigate the effectiveness of CBTi as a treatment for tinnitus related insomnia. Tinnitus patients reporting clinically significant insomnia will be offered sleep-specific treatment. Six sessions of CBTi will be offered to one group of patients and 2 sessions standard audiological care (psycho-education and sleep hygiene) will be offered to another group. Both groups will be offered sound enrichment at night. In order to take account of the possible effects of clinical contact a third group will be offered 6 sessions of support without a focused tinnitus or sleep intervention. Accepted measures of sleep disturbance will be used as well as measures of tinnitus complaint. All treatment/contact will be provided at the Royal National Throat Nose & Ear Hospital. Participants will be involved in the study (inc. baseline period {2 weeks}, intervention {8 weeks} and follow-ups {4 and 20 weeks}) for 34 weeks.
To analyze the relationship of nocturnal concentrations of melatonin, γ-aminobutyric acid and total antioxidants with insomnia after stroke.
Insomnia can be a chronic problem that leads to significant daytime fatigue, stress and numerous negative health consequences including depression. Advanced Medical Electronics, in partnership with researchers are the University of Pennsylvania, propose developing an innovative, non-drug, low-risk, intervention that can be implemented on mobile devices for the treatment of insomnia
Sleep disorders are commonly under-recognized in the primary care setting and available screening tools are often are limited. The study inestigators hypothesize that the use of a novel subjective sleep vital sign (VS) will improve recognition of patients with sleep disorders and can be utilized to track outcomes to sleep therapy.
