Filter by:This is a multicenter, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a daily single oral dose of tasimelteon in treating sleep disturbances in pediatric and adult participants with ASD.
Include participants who intend to practice Ramadan fasting and accept to complete the three part of the study .
To evaluate the feasibility of a pragmatic, large scale, comparative effectiveness, randomized evaluation of patient experience of intravenous propofol versus inhaled volatile anesthesia.
Perioperative neurocognitive impairment, including postoperative delirium (POD), is common in older patients after anesthesia and surgery and is associated with poorer short- and long-term outcomes, including worsening cognitive decline, surgical Complications, increased risk of hospitalization, and death after cardiac and noncardiac surgery. POD is more common with age, occurs in up to 65% of elderly patients, and increases in patients with mild cognitive impairment. As more and more older adults undergo surgery and anesthesia, POD has become a major global health challenge requiring urgent attention. Prevention strategies involving multidisciplinary perioperative interventions may have some benefit overall, but the impact on POD remains uncertain. Known inflammatory responses may be associated with adverse outcomes such as neurocognitive dysfunction and cancer recurrence after major surgery. Different anesthesia methods, the regulation of anesthesia drugs on postoperative inflammatory response has been confirmed in vitro, but its clinical significance is still unclear. Therefore, exploring the risk factors of inducing POD has important clinical significance for the early prevention of POD. Second, a recent study found that the incidence of POD was significantly higher in patients whose sleep cycle was disturbed during hospitalization. Animal experiments found that after 5 hours of sleep deprivation in adult mice, the number of dendritic spines in CA1 neurons in the hippocampus was reduced, and the length of dendrites was significantly shortened, which damaged the synaptic transmission of the central nervous system, and significantly improved memory and cognitive function. Damaged. And many studies have investigated whether bispectral index (BIS)-guided anesthesia is associated with a reduced risk of POD, compared with "standard-of-care" anesthesia or the use of goal-directed end-tidal volatile agent concentrations, the reasoning is that the use of BIS-guided anesthesia results in less anesthesia exposure, and therefore "light" anesthesia may reduce the incidence of postoperative POD compared to "deep" anesthesia. However, this conclusion is still controversial. The study of Anshentong et al. has confirmed that deep anesthesia with BIS maintained at 40-49 can delay postoperative recovery time, reduce the level of inflammatory factors and the incidence of early postoperative cognitive impairment, and reduce the incidence of early postoperative cognitive impairment. Brain damage. Therefore, although age is known to be the main correlative factor for POD, different depths of anesthesia may cause different stress responses in patients, resulting in different release of inflammatory factors. An additional risk factor may be preoperative psychiatric symptoms, and assessment of mental status is often overshadowed by concerns about multiple comorbidities in older adults. Anxiety disorders are one of the prominent psychiatric symptoms in older adults. very common. Preoperative anxiety is defined as an unpleasant restless or tense state secondary to patient concerns about illness, hospitalization, anesthesia, surgery, or the unknown. Studies on the relationship between preoperative anxiety and POD also vary in consistency due to the characteristics of different populations. Many of the current studies are mostly single-center with limited sample size, which may have a certain bias in the conclusions. Therefore, the investigators designed and planned to conduct a multi-center, large-sample cohort study to determine the impact of perioperative related factors and inflammatory markers on elderly patients undergoing non-cardiac major surgery .
This research will be one of the first hospital-based studies to comprehensively evaluate the epidemiological characteristics of sleep disordered breathing (SDB) in patients with Congestive Heart Failure (CHF). This prospective, observational cohort, single center study will include all consecutive CHF outpatients from the specialized heart failure clinic in Medical Department, Hospital Taiping, Malaysia irrespective of preserved or depressed Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF). All participants will be subjected to an attended in-laboratory polysomnogram (PSG). It is anticipated the frequency and types of SDB to be variable compared to western data as this subject remains understudied in the South East Asian population. This research utilizes PSG rather than Portable Sleep Testing (PST) as seen in preceding studies for the diagnosis of SDB to prevent underdiagnosing SDBs and clearly distinguishing Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and Central Sleep Apnea (CSA).
This study intends to conduct postoperative sleep intervention for elderly patients with sleep disorders undergoing surgery. We hope to explore whether propofol can improve the postoperative sleep quality of elderly patients with sleep disorders, prevent the occurrence of postoperative delirium in elderly patients, relieve patients' pain, promote patients' postoperative rehabilitation, and provide reference for realizing the rapid rehabilitation of elderly patients with sleep disorders through intravenous administration of research drugs, on the premise of improving patient comfort and ensuring patient safety.
Prospective longitudinal observational registry study of all patients with sleep disorders treated in the Mainz Comprehensive Epilepsy and Sleep Medicine Center with the focus on the course of the disease and quality of life.
Sleep disturbances in athletes was found prevalent and affect their cognitive and physical abilities and increase the risk of injury. Moreover, studies showed also that a better sleep produces a better athletic performance. Therefore, it is important to find out management strategies that improve quality of sleep in this population. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a noninvasive brain stimulation technique that modulates cortical activity. tDCS has been conducted to improve wide range of neurological impairments including sleep. tDCS was used in improving the quality of sleep in older adults and in athletes. Both studies found improvement in some sleep indices.
This study is a study that qualifies as "other clinical investigation" under Art. 82 MDR and §47 Abs. 3 MPDG with a CE-marked device that aims to demonstrate that the physiological signals from the Onera STS system are substantially equivalent to physiological systems recorded by traditional PSG systems. Furthermore, the study aims to identify the proportion of users who can successfully perform an overnight Onera STS study in an unsupervised home setting. The Onera STS will be used within its approved indication, and the study participants will not be subjected to additional invasive or burdensome procedures.
Sleep disorders are common among elderly persons, with deleterious effects on their physical and mental health. Many approaches are used to manage such disorders. Aim of the study: To compare the Emotional Freedom Techniques-Insomnia (EFT-I) and Sleep Hygiene Education (SHE) group therapy as two treatments for insomnia in a geriatric population when delivered, and their effects on sleep quality, depression, and life satisfaction.
