Filter by: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.
This is a randomized controlled trial that intends to verify the effectiveness of the daily practice of meditation before going to sleep for the improvement of sleep, stress, mental health and quality of life of people with sleep problems.
The train-the-trainer (TTT) approach is a promising method of sustaining training efforts in community mental health centers (CMHCs). This study will test the implementation and effectiveness outcomes of a sleep treatment delivered by CMHC providers who are trained and supervised within CMHCs via TTT. The investigators will test two versions of the sleep treatment, a "Standard" version and an "Adapted" version that has been adapted using theory, data and stakeholder inputs to improve the fit for SMI patients treated in community mental health centers.
The aim of this project is to determine the effect of compression stockings on the complaints, well-being and sleep quality of pregnant women with restless legs syndrome (RLS). The research is a pretest-posttest randomized placebo-controlled experimental study. The study will be carried out with a total of 70 people, 35 in the compression stocking group and 35 in the placebo stocking group. Study data will be collected with RLS Diagnostic Criteria Questionnaire Form, Research Criteria Compliance Form, Personal Information Form, RLS Severity Rating Scale, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PUKI), WHO-5 and Implementation Satisfaction Form. Pregnant women in both groups will wear the stockings given for three weeks after the first interview. Data analysis obtained in the research will be performed in TURCOSA statistical software (Turcosa Analytics Ltd Co, Turkey, www.turcosa.com.tr).In comparisons, a value of p <0.05 will be considered statistically significant. In order to conduct the study, the necessary Academic Committee decision, Ethics Committee approval (December 08, 2021 and number 2021/781) and institutional permission were obtained. The individuals included in the study will be informed about the purpose of the research, their verbal consent will be obtained and the participant's informed consent form will be signed.
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.
Hundreds of thousands of adolescents experience protracted recoveries from concussion, which can affect all aspects of their lives and create family and societal burden. Research suggests that interventions to improve their sleep quantity and/or quality could improve recovery from concussion, but current treatment models are costly and onerous for families, fit poorly with integrated care models, and leave youth and their families to suffer months of protracted burden. This study will evaluate the efficacy of a promising brief behavioral sleep intervention, which could prove to be a powerful new tool to head off protracted symptom burden.
