1. To determine the effects of tDCS on subjective measures of sleepiness in night-shift workers with shift work disorder. 2. To determine the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on vigilance in night-shift workers with shift work disorder.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of long-term (12 months) armodafinil treatment in patients with excessive sleepiness associated with mild or moderate closed traumatic brain injury (TBI).
This research project consists of a three part study with five embedded sub studies. The first study phase identifies "body rhythms" of sleepiness/wakefulness and of melatonin levels for each subject (including sub-study 1). The second study phase identifies the optimum dose and timing of melatonin for regulating each individual's 24-hour sleep/waking cycle (including sub-study 2). The third study phase introduces a new independent variable, light (including sub-studies 3 and 4). Sub-study 5 is an optional longitudinal study. Sub-study 1 looks at how keeping a regular sleep schedule affects the body's natural rhythm. Sub-study 2 looks at how individuals metabolize melatonin. Sub-study 3 tests how individuals' endogenous melatonin production responds to bright outdoor light and Sub-study 4 tests a previous finding that artificial bright light exposed daily behind the knee can regulate the body clock. Sub-study 5 is an optional longitudinal study, an extension of the first study stage, for subjects whose rhythms are not clearly free-running.
The primary objective of the study is to determine whether armodafinil treatment is more effective than placebo treatment in patients with excessive sleepiness associated with mild or moderate closed traumatic brain injury (TBI).
