Filter by:In this study, a two-part recursive convolutional neural networks model was developed, extracting features for each epoch window independently from before and after sleep onset (epoch encoder), and then trained in the context of long-term relationships in the sleep process (sequence encoder), using an approach similar to human expert classification based on information from single-channel forehead EEG and PPG (IR, Green, Red). The classification is based on guidelines from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and calculated six parameters: total sleep duration (TST), wake (W), N1, N2, N3, and REM. The validation study of the developed model and the device was conducted at the Sleep Disorders Centre of the Istanbul Medical Faculty using concurrent polysomnographic data from 305 male and female patients aged 18 to 65 years.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the physical and mental health status of middle-aged and elderly people of different ages and practicing Tai chi for different periods of time, so as to provide a strong theoretical basis and practical guidance for delaying age-related aging and preventing and treating the occurrence and development of chronic diseases.
This proof-of-concept study is being performed to evaluate whether the hypoglossal nerve can be stimulated using a small series of electrodes placed surgically via a percutaneous approach. Minimally invasive off the shelf medical devices will be used and observation of the characteristic physiological responses to stimulation of the HGN, will be assessed.
Postoperative sleep disorders have serious problems with cognition, pain perception, sustained circadian rhythm, psychomotor function, metabolic function, catabolic responses, and continuity. The relationship between general anesthesia and sleep disturbances following surgery is still unclear. Since the risk of sleep disorders after surgery is high, it is important to determine the efficiency of the interval with automatic sleep disorders. By evaluating how major orthopedic surgery and general anesthesia applied to posterior spinal instrumentation divides sleep quality, risk management allows determining the factors involved in the peroperative period and thus facilitating surgical results and patient comfort.
The study is a comparative, self-controlled, randomized, prospective investigation designed to assess the usability and accuracy of the DormoTech Vlab and compare its performance with a full polysomnography (PSG) study conducted over one night in a sleep lab. For the purpose of this study, the selected PSG device used for comparison is the Nox A1 system (K192469). Participants were required to wear the DormoTech Vlab, answer questionnaires pre and post-study, and simultaneously undergo a full PSG test using the Nox system. The statistical methodology for this study was designed to ensure a comprehensive analysis of the data, adhering to the standards set by the International Council for Harmonisation (ICH) E3 guideline
Objective: Sleep and behavioral problems are common in infants at risk of autism. This study aims to examine the effect of Snoezelen-Based Occupational Therapy intervention on sleep and behavioral problems in infants at risk of autism. Design: Twenty-four infants (15 boys, 9 girls) at risk for autism were randomized to the intervention group (n = 12; 28.33 ± 6.52 months) and the control group (n = 9; 30.11 ± 5.20 years). The intervention group received Snoezelen-Based Occupational Therapy intervention in addition to the conventional 8-week sensory integration intervention, while the control group received only the conventional sensory integration intervention. Both groups assessed sleep and behavioral problems using the Brief Infant Sleep Questionnaire (BİSQ) and the Vineland Social-Emotional Early Childhood Scale (VSEES) pre and post eight weeks of intervention.
In order to assess the efficacy of the rhythm stabilization component of Health Rhythms' product in addressing sleep problems, investigators will recruit 128 outpatients over the age of 18, who are in early recovery (at least 2 weeks but no more than 6 months) from Alcohol Use Disorder (AUDIT-C score >4) and are experiencing sleep problems (ISI score >/= 10). 64 of these individuals will be randomly allocated to receive the full HealthRhythms package (sensing, trending, and stabilization) on their smartphones, while 64 will be asked to consent to sensing only. The duration of the study will be 14 weeks. The primary outcome measures of the RCT will be the ISI (Insomnia Severity Index). The investigators hypothesize that those receiving the full package will demonstrate lower levels of sleep disturbance.
Introduction: Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) performed with open heart surgery technique is a successful operation in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Incision of the sternum region, saphenous vein graft, sternal retraction, presence of chest and mediastinal tubes cause pain. The pain experienced by the patients, the complications related to the disease they have, and the stress they experience cause an increase in sleep problems. In addition, the increase in sympathetic activity after surgery and nursing care interventions also affect sleep quality. The literature reports that sleep disorders affect the working physiology of the heart in patients with cardiac disease, adversely affect heart health and affect postoperative recovery. In addition, since sleep disorders are also associated with cardiovascular diseases, it is of great importance to improve the sleep quality of this group of patients. One of the non-pharmacological nursing interventions is the eye patch. The eye patch is an instrument made of fabric, with an elastic strap, aimed at pure darkness by diverting all light from the patient's eyes. The main physiological purpose of using an eye patch is to adjust the hormones melatonin and cortisol, which affect the circadian rhythm. As a result, it is thought that the eye patch will prevent patients from being exposed to excessive light in the hospital environment, the regulation of hormones and sleep quality will improve, and the pain will decrease. Purpose: The aim of this study is to examine the effect of eye patch applied to patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery on sleep quality and pain. Method: Individuals who have undergone coronary artery bypass graft surgery in accordance with the sampling inclusion criteria will be randomly assigned to the experimental and control groups by block randomization. After determining the groups, each patient in the experimental and control groups, whose written consent was obtained, will have the first researcher fill out the Descriptive Characteristics Form, Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire and Numerical Pain Scale on the morning of the first night they spent in the clinic. Patients in the experimental group will be given the "standard care" and "eye patch" application in the clinic on their 2nd and 3rd nights in the clinic. The patients in the control group will only be provided with the "standard care" in the clinic on their 2nd and 3rd nights in the clinic. Patients in both groups will be asked to fill out the Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire and Numerical Pain Scale forms in the mornings of the 2nd and 3rd nights.
COVID-19 infection was identified in Wuhan, China at the end of 2019 and turned into a pandemic in a short time. In our country, the pandemic continues at full speed and patients are being treated in various clinical pictures. In its clinical classification, the World Health Organization (WHO) divides COVID-19 disease into four stages: mild symptomatic disease, pneumonia, severe pneumonia, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), sepsis and advanced stage with septic shock. Case reports and cross-sectional studies report a list of more than 200 different symptoms in the development of post COVID-19 syndrome. Shortness of breath, persistent smell and taste disturbances, fatigue and neuropsychological symptoms (headache, memory loss, slowed thinking, anxiety, depression and sleep disturbances) are the most commonly reported symptoms. Musculoskeletal symptoms such as pain (myalgia), muscle weakness, arthralgia and fatigue are also common. Exercise endurance tests are used to predict the prognosis of the disease in chronic lung diseases, to determine functional exercise capacity, to evaluate the response of the disease to treatment and to interpret the results of clinical trials. Covid-19-induced lung infections and long periods of isolation may have negative effects on respiratory muscle strength, pulmonary function values and physical activity level. It has been reported that only one week of bed rest can cause serious muscle loss of up to 20%. Covid-19 infection increases the likelihood of asthma-like symptoms. In some cases, pneumonia and increased dyspnea are also seen. When volleyball players with Covid-19 infection were examined, respiratory muscle strength and fev1/fvc values were lower than expected. When looking at the interaction between infections and sleep, it was observed that different infections had different effects on sleep, with some infections increasing the amount of sleep while others decreased it. The increase in inflammatory mediators associated with systemic infection is thought to increase the amount of REM sleep and total sleep duration, perhaps in an effort to conserve energy and counteract infection. Some infections have a negative effect on the immune system, reducing the amount of sleep. Covid infection is also thought to have negative effects on sleep. The symptoms of COVID-19 in the chronic phase can further negatively affect physiological, psychological and social outcomes, physical activity and ultimately muscle performance and quality. Post-infection physical function and fitness can worsen even two years after the disease. In COVID-19 patients recovering 3 months after hospital discharge, limitations were mainly related to reduced muscle mass, low oxidative capacity or both, rather than cardiac or respiratory exercise limitation. Symptoms experienced during Covid-19 infection are thought to have negative effects on exercise endurance. In order to meet the metabolic needs of the musculoskeletal system muscles during exercise, cardiac output, ventilation, pulmonary and systemic blood flow, oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange in a way to maintain acid-base balance and oxygenation, and their compatible response to each other are required. Exercise endurance assessments are an important parameter to determine the functional level of the patient. Eighty-eight percent of individuals with Covid-19 infection showed a decrease in respiratory muscle strength in the evaluation performed 5 months later. The direct effect of respiratory muscles may cause permanent dyspnea problems. Muscle strength, exercise capacity, dyspnea perception, fatigue severity perception, pain, balance, kinesiophobia, psychosocial and cognitive status, quality of life should be routinely evaluated in the post-COVID-19 period in patients admitted to the clinic, and a targeted functional rehabilitation program should be prepared in the light of these evaluations, taking these parameters into consideration during the rehabilitation process.
The main objective of the study is to observe changes in the subjects' sleep quality, skin condition and life status after 4 weeks of using a sleep aid drink (AOXMED Poria γ-aminobutyric acid drink). This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, controlled, 4-week (28-day) clinical study conducted in Chinese healthy women aged 25-55 years old who were offered a sleep aid drink.
