Filter by:This study is to determine the impact of night shift nurse's activity on patients' sleeping patterns in medical services including individual, clinical and environmental factors. The patients will be questioned in order to create both a control group and a group with troubled sleeping patterns.
Patients with CML report on fatigue, and many of them report on sleep disturbances. The investigators wish to objectively assess the patient's sleep using a sleep "wrist watch" (Actigraph) , and correlate data with their perception of sleep quality. A matched participants group will serve as control. the Control group is defined as participants not having CML or any other malignancy and without any known sleep disturbances.
The aim of this clinical trial is to study the effect of an intravenous infusion of lidocaïne in a multimodal analgesic protocol on the architecture sleep during the first postoperative night.
A prospective double blind, placebo-controlled, randomized cross-over trial to evaluate the effect of lowering cerebral blood flow on the ventilatory chemoreflexes (acute hypoxic and hypercapnic ventilatory responses).
The randomized clinical trial will aim to analyze the influence of binary and quaternary rhythm through a protocol on motor symptoms, sleep, fatigue and quality of life in individuals with Parkinson's disease. The study design with a randomized clinical trial, including individuals diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease, will be divided into two groups: 1) Control group 2) Experimental group. Cognition, balance, gait freezing, functional mobility, quality of life, sleep, daytime sleepiness and fatigue will be evaluated. Through the application of binary and quaternary rhythm protocol for a period of 12 weeks. First, the descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation and percentage) will be used to know the data, then the normality calculation using the Kolmogorov Smirnov test will be used to choose the statistical tests. All information will be collected before and after the intervention period. For statistical analysis, use the SPSS statistical package, version 20.0. (Kolmogorov-Smirnov or Shapiro-Wilk test) for the selection of statistical tests.
The general objective of this study is to identify biomarkers of sleep quality, sarcopenia, insulin resistance, oxidative stress and inflammation associated with prefrailty in middle-aged and elderly obese subjects through the integrated study of sleep patterns, functional cardiovascular testing, olfactory function and circulating molecules. Results from the SleSOB study will contribute to identify molecular and functional determinants of prefrailty, to allow early targeted interventions and will have important implications for empowerment of elderly citizens to self-management of preventive measures and healthy lifestyle.
It is necessary and important to design tools to evaluate a central aspect of medical residents formation. The research group has been working with resident well-being since a few years in order to improve the global quality of the education and working environment. The investigators present a plan to develop and validate a tool to assess residents well-being. A tool designed with this characteristics would be of much importance to monitored as a security event, managed and actively promoted well being in residents.
Adenotonsillectomy is one of the most common ambulatory surgical procedures performed to children. Tonsillectomy or adenotonsillectomy have a high incidence of postoperative pain. There is still debate about the optimal analgesia for this common surgical procedure. Different methods have been described and used to reduce pain including; improved intraoperative anesthetic pain regimens, use of corticosteroids, adjustment of surgical technique, and intraoperative local anesthetic injection. Intraoperative local anesthetic is a preventive or preemptive analgesia which is the analgesia given before painful stimuli to prevent the subsequent pain. The main goal of the preventive analgesia is the pain relief with minimum side effects. The role of local anesthetic infiltration in the reduction of postadenotonsillectomy pain is still controversial. The objective of this study is to investigate and compare the effectiveness of preincisional peritonsillar infiltration of ketamine and tramadol for post-operative pain on children following adenotonsillectomy. This is prospective, double-blinded randomized study.
