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.
This study aims to compare the effect of dexmedetomidine infusion and oral melatonin on preventing delirium in intensive care unit (ICU) patients.
Background and aim: Hyperinflammatory host response associated with diabetes mellitus significantly provokes periodontal tissue destruction. In this context, supporting the standard treatment of periodontitis in diabetics with host modulation agents is a current field of study. This clinical study aims to investigate the clinical efficacy of melatonin supplementation in non-surgical periodontal treatment in patients with Type 2 DM and periodontitis and its biological basis (clinical effectiveness) based on some basic markers. Material and method: In this randomized controlled and double-blind study, 27 of 55 patients with diabetic periodontitis underwent full mouth scaling and root planning (fmSRP) alone and 28 of them were administered melatonin (6 mg daily, for 30 days) in addition to fmSRP. The possible therapeutic contribution of melatonin was evaluated clinically and biochemically [gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) RANKL, OPG and MMP-8 and serum IL-1β levels] at 3 and 6 months.
Electroencephalogram (EEG) has an important place in establishing the correct diagnosis, providing appropriate intervention, and predicting the prognosis in the long term in children. When the literature is examined, it is seen that different sedative drugs (benzodiazepines, barbiturates, phenothiazine, chloral hydrate, hydroxyzine, melatonin, etc.) and their combinations are used to provide sedation during EEG recordings, but there is no ideal sedative drug. Nurses working in the field of pediatric neurology in EEG recordings; It has important roles in preparing the child and parent for the procedure, applying sedation before the procedure, performing the EEG recording properly, monitoring vital signs during the procedure, monitoring the effects of the sedative substance after the procedure, and sending the patient home safely. Pediatric nurses fulfill these roles by adopting a multidisciplinary team approach. In this context, the aim of our research is; The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of chloral hydrate, hydroxyzine and melatonin, which are used as sedative agents before EEG recording in children, on sleep success, time to fall asleep, side effects and EEG background.
Burning mouth syndrome is an idiopathic condition characterized by symptoms burning and / or pain of the oral mucosa with an orderly clinical finding. So far not found a unique way of treatment. It is a diagnosis that impairs the quality of life of patients, and consequently it can affect the quality of sleep. Melatonin is a hormone secreted from pineal gland and regulates the day-night rhythm of man, and whose production in the body decreases aging. The level of melatonin in saliva correlates well with the level of melatonin in plasma, therefore they are advantages of determining from saliva painlessness and non-invasiveness of the procedure itself. The purpose of this study was to compare the level of melatonin in saliva and the quality of sleep with help of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale in patients with burning mouth syndrome and control groups of patients without subjective oral disorders and with an orderly clinical finding.
The aim of this project is to evaluate the effect of a dynamic light in order to improve the circadian rhythm, provide a better sleep and well-being, and in the long run an improved recovery. The primary question is whether dynamic artificial light with circadian stimulus can affect the circadian rhythm. The secondary question is whether this also provides better sleep and well-being. The group that is particularly interesting to study is a geriatric population that is more sensitive to circadian rhythm disorders, sleep disorders and confusion in connection with hospitalization and that can be of particular benefit from this intervention.
The aim of the study is to compare the effect of melatonin, given orally, dexmedetomidine, given intranasally, and dexmedetomidine given sublingually on sleep induction, sleep duration, their possible impact on vital functions and technical implementation of EEG.
The present study was prospective uncontrolled, single-armed and un-blinded study. Held in the Pediatric neurology clinic, Children's hospital l, Faculty of Medicine, Ain Shams University from June 2016 to June 2018 of 24 months timeframe. All cerebral palsy (CP) patients following up in Pediatric neurology clinic aged between 2 and 12 years. Melatonin given for 3 months. Anthropmetric measures, gastroeintestinal symptoms, Children's sleep habits questionnaire (CSHQ) Arabic version, polysomnography, Chalfont epilepsy severity score, and EEG were done at enrollment and after the 3-months.
Our aim was to diagnose and initiate early treatment for postpartum depression by detecting the changes of melatonin levels in c-sections with different antesthesia modalities.
