Filter by:The study aims to develop and test a user-friendly, accessible approach to sleep assessment which can function as an initial "triage" of targeted sleep conditions, such as insomnia, insufficient sleep syndrome, sleep apnea syndromes/snoring, and circadian sleep/wake disorders, within the clinical and community population. Specifically, this study will test the validity and reliability of a self-rated, digitized, and cost-effective diagnostic measure with sufficient sensitivity to accurately assess/diagnose common sleep conditions and/or risk for these conditions. Such an approach, would allow for faster assessment of common sleep conditions and disorders, and provide clinical knowledge to the individual, the physician, and if required insurance companies, as to those persons who need more immediate attention or treatment for their sleep condition.

Aim: Evaluate the influence of exercise, in different times, on quality of life, sleep and clinical parameters in people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHA). Methods: Intervention study, prospective.
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.
Randomised trial comparing double balloon catheter for induction of labor between inpatient and outpatient groups. The investigators assess how sleep disturbances and depression of the mother affect to the pain during balloon catheter induction of labour.
Sleep is important in maintaining the physiological function of the human body. Recently several studies have reported that preoperative sleep quality is associated with postoperative emergence delirium (ED) The ED is a common in pediatric patients undergoing general anesthesia with sevoflurane, but studies on the association of sleep quality have been rare. The investigators, therefore, aimed to investigate the relationship between postoperative delirium and pre and postoperative sleep quality in pediatric patients receiving strabismus surgery through this study
The aims of this survey are to assess the relationships between exposure to screens of digital media devices, sleep patterns, and daily function such as subjective sleepiness and attention abilities in adult Israel population
Poor sleep quality is common in patients with heart failure. The limited available evidence intimates that improving sleep quality in patients with heart failure may improve morbidity and quality of life in this patient population. However, there is a paucity of evidence assessing the use of effective pharmacologic therapies in heart failure. The nonbenzodiazepine, GABA receptor agonist, zolpidem, has been found to have considerable benefits over traditional benzodiazepines as a soporific medication. The investigators hypothesize that zolpidem will safely improve sleep quality in patients with heart failure.
This study is designed as cross-over double-blind placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial that 40 diabetic patients with sleep disorder with the inclusion criteria will enter into the study and randomly assign to first intervention and first placebo groups.The primary outcomes are change in sleep disorder and metabolic parameters that will be evaluated at the end of the study.
