Sleep Deprivation Clinical Trial
Official title:
Tai Chi Training and Sleep Enhancement in the Elderly
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of Tai Chi, in comparison to conventional exercise, on the quality of sleep among sedentary older adults.
Elderly individuals often suffer from sleep disturbances. Chronic sleep problems can cause
significant medical, psychological, and social disruptions. Although many sleep-related
studies exist, few studies have focused on improving quality of sleep. Tai Chi, an exercise
that incorporates meditation and breathing with whole body movements, may improve the
quality of sleep and health status of elderly individuals.
Participants will be randomly assigned to either a Tai Chi group or a conventional exercise
control group. Participants in each group will exercise for 60 minutes, 3 times per week,
for 6 months. Assessment of sleep quality and health status will be done at study start, 3
months, 6 months, at the end of the study, and at a 3-month follow-up visit.
