Filter by:The current study is a prospective blinded study to collect data regarding the performance of the WP device in detecting sleep disorders. For that purpose, the WP with finger probe and chest sensor will be worn by the subject simultaneous to PSG in a sleep study at the clinical sleep lab. A PSG system will be recording the PSG data.
Although patients with cancers are prone to insomnia, especially waiting for surgery during hospitalization, and insomnia promotes acute respiratory infections (ARI) and is not conducive to the postoperative quality of recovery (QoR), evidence that preoperative insomnia delays postoperative recovery is still lacking. In this prospective observational study, we enroll 175 non-elderly subjects with abdominal cancer who will undergo non-emergency cancer resection surgery. Insomnia Severity Index scale (ISI) is used to assess the insomnia severity during hospitalization while awaiting surgery. The Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) is used to evaluate the overall recovery after surgery. Meanwhile, wrist watch and sleep diary are used to record sleep. The aim of the study is to investigate the association between preoperative insomnia and postoperative QoR, the association between preoperative insomnia and postoperative ARI,and to describe preoperative sleep traits.
Mental illness is often chronic, severe, and difficult to treat. Though there has been significant progress towards establishing effective and efficient interventions for psychological health problems, many individuals do not gain lasting benefits from these treatments. The Memory Support Intervention (MSI) was developed utilizing existing findings from the cognitive science literature to improve treatment outcomes. In this study, the investigators aim to conduct an open trial that includes individuals 50 years and older to assess if a novel version of the Memory Support Intervention improves sleep and circadian functioning, reduces functional impairment, and improves patient memory for treatment.
Sleep difficulties are common following stroke yet effective evidence-based interventions for improving sleep in this population are lacking. A small number of studies have investigated the use of music listening as a way to improve sleep in adults with insomnia. This study aims to examine whether a mindful music-listening intervention can reduce subjective and objective insomnia symptoms and improve mood and fatigue post-stroke. Six adults with a clinical diagnosis of stroke presenting with an insomnia disorder will be recruited from stroke services within NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde. A multiple baseline single case experimental design will be employed. Participants will be randomly allocated to a baseline phase of 7, 11 or 15 days, followed by a five-week mindful music-listening intervention incorporating sleep hygiene. Changes in subjective and objective sleep will be measured using questionnaires and actigraphy, respectively. Mood and fatigue will also be measured. The data will be analysed using visual inspection, Tau-U and multi-level modelling.
This study seeks to improve clinical outcomes for an important, growing, and vulnerable population-nursing home residents with Alzheimer's disease or related dementias-by testing an evidence-based intervention to improve these residents' sleep. It will also examine the implementation and sustainment of this intervention.
The purpose of this study is to investigate improvements in sleep by comparing two 6-week digital programs, either online or app-based, that deliver Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I), the "gold standard" treatment for insomnia, with or without a bedside device to help track sleep.
The goal of this observational study is to learn if acutely and/or chronically altered sleep induces inflammation and/or a pro-thrombotic state (a tendency to form clots) in hospital workers who either work in shifts or are exclusively daily workers. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does chronically altered sleep induce a pro-inflammatory and pro-thrombotic state, which are steps towards cardiovascular disease, knowing that is associated with poor sleep? - Does acutely disrupted sleep, such as that observed in night shift workers, induce a pro-inflammatory and pro-thrombotic state in otherwise healthy subjects? Participants in the study are hospital workers who either work in shifts, including night shifts, or only during the day. Sleep quality is assessed by a validated questionnaire (the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index). Markers of inflammation and of the pro-thrombotic state are measured at baseline and, if appropriate, after the night shift. These are markers of platelet activation, D-dimer, Interleukin-6 and endothelin 1, known to contribute and/or to suggest a condition of generalized inflammation and a tendency to form clots. Relevant information on health status is also collected for each participant.
The goal of this observational study is to: 1) determine the prevalence of sleep disorders in pregnancy and the early postpartum; 2) identify factors associated with sleep disturbance during pregnancy and the early postpartum; 3) describe the progression of sleep quality and quantity as gestational age; 4) determine if sleep is associated with adverse perinatal outcomes. Participants were asked to wear a forehead sleep recorder for 4 consecutive days and to complete a sleep questionnaire at ten timepoints: at 3 months, 4 months, 5 months, 6 months, 7 months, 8 months, and 9 months pregnant and at 1 month, 2 months and 3 months postpartum.
This single arm pilot feasibility study will evaluate the implementation of overnight infant respite care and parenting skills to mothers with substance use disorders in the early postpartum period residing in residential substance use disorder treatment programs.
The results of this study will provide an affordable, safe and scientific treatment for patients with sleep disorders, so that patients can improve their sleep quality at home.
