Filter by:Sleep disorders commonly co-occur with psychiatric disorders. Sleep disorders are often treated with medication or not at all in psychiatric care, although there exist a plethora of documentation of the effectiveness of sleep interventions. There is also an increase in studies showing effectiveness of sleep-interventions when the sleep disorder co-occurs with psychiatric illness. The recommended treatment for Delayed Sleep-Wake phase disorder is light therapy at gradually advanced timing and/or melatonin administered in order to help phase-advance the circadian rhythm. There is a great gap in the knowledge on how sleep disorders can be treated effectively when they occur comorbid to moderate and severe psychiatric illness. In this project the we therefore seek to investigate the effect of psychological and behavioural, group-based treatment in a randomized controlled trial (RCT) where sleep and psychiatric symptoms are the primary outcome measures.
The Multidisciplinary Expert System for the Assessment & Management of Complex Brain Disorders (MES-CoBraD) is an interdisciplinary project combining Real-World Data (RWD) from multiple clinical and consumer sources through comprehensive, cost-efficient, and fast protocols towards improving diagnostic accuracy and therapeutic outcomes in people with Complex Brain Disorders (CoBraD), as reflected in Neurocognitive (Dementia), Sleep, and Seizure (Epilepsy) disorders and their interdependence. It brings together internationally recognized experts in medicine, engineering, computer science, social health science, law, and marketing and communication from across Europe, and combines clinical information and scientific research in CoBraD with technical innovation in secure data-sharing platforms, artificial intelligence algorithms, and expert systems of precision and personalized care, with a primary focus on improving the quality of life of patients, their caregivers, and the society at large. It leverages RWD from diverse CoBraD populations across cultural, socioeconomic, educational, and health system backgrounds, with special attention on including vulnerable populations and minorities in an equitable manner and engaging key stakeholders to maximize project impact.
The goal of this research is to establish a proof of concept for optimizing and evaluating a personalized SMS intervention based for individuals with chronic sleep problems.
The emphasis on this study is to review the use of PBMT as a potential treatment modality to improve both sleep symptoms and consequent neuropsychological functions affected by sleep disturbances in a cohort of post-mTBI patients with sleep issues not secondary to sleep apnea.
The main objective is to study the effect of deep propioceptive stimulation with a heavy blanket for 2 weeks compared with a placebo blanket on sleep quality and behavior in patients with PWS
This single-site study is a pilot, three-armed, double-blinded, placebo-controlled randomized controlled trial (RCT) that will determine the feasibility of a definitive RCT investigating the use of cannabis oil as a treatment for insomnia in individuals with MDD. The study will also determine whether standard THC with higher CBD vs lower CBD has a differential impact on insomnia. The study will also analyze other important objective parameters of sleep including total sleep time and sleep efficiency from actigraphy data. Polysomnography data will also be analyzed. In addition, standardized, validated instruments will be used to collect data on severity of depressive symptoms, cognitive functioning biological rhythm disruption, daytime sleepiness, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), healthcare resource utilization, work productivity and activity impairment, as well as other side effects, in order to better understand the potential impact of the use of cannabis oil on these important health outcomes.
Pivotal clinical trial, multicenter of superiority, randomized, double-blind, parallel groups, placebo-controlled and use of nasal lubricant on snoring.
Sleep disorder is one of the most burdensome non-motor symptoms in Parkinsonian patients. Typical manifestations include RBD, decreased sleep efficiency, decreased slow wave sleep, daytime sleepiness, increased sleep latency and wakefulness during sleep. Subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been reported to improve sleep dysfunction in several studies, mostly due to its improvement in motor dysfunction. However, there are limited research about specific STN-DBS stimulation pattern for sleep architecture regulation, and whether suboptimal parameter combinations for motor has potential benefits for sleep improvement has not been studied. Here we use different parameter combination in STN-DBS, especially by changing stimulation contact and frequency, to explore the specific stimulation pattern for normalizing sleep architecture and increasing slow wave sleep.
SIngle-centre interventional single-blinded randomized controlled trial, with random assignment of the subjects in two groups (intervention and control, 1: 1 ratio) and to be carried out with volunteers that present alterations in the quality of sleep. Eligible and accepting subjects participating in the study will be assigned to receive an osteopathic treatment protocol or a placebo technique
Patients with fibromyalgia (FM) complain of widespread chronic pain from deep tissues including muscles. Previous research highlights the relevance of impulse input from deep tissues for clinical FM pain. Deep dry needle stimulation is an invasive treatment modality used in the management of musculoskeletal pain. Its efficacy has been confirmed in the management of myofascial trigger points, so the purpose of the study is to determine if blocking abnormal impulse input with deep dry needling stimulation of tender point may decrease hyperalgesia, clinical pain and associated symptoms such as anxiety, depression, fatigue and improve the quality of life in FM patients.
