Snoring Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effect of Caffeine Reduction on Snoring and Quality of Life
Snoring is a problem for many people, often disturbing energy level, quality of sleep, and
the relationship with a bed partner. Two observational studies that have indicated a
relationship between the consumption of caffeine and snoring. The objective of this study
will be to observe the degree of snoring and quality of sleep when caffeine intake is
reduced over a period of four weeks. This will be a prospective, before-and-after study of a
behavioral intervention.
This study will engage thirty adults who report snoring, drink two cups of coffee or more
per day (or an equivalent amount of caffeine), and have a consistent bed partner who can
report on snoring severity. Both subject and partner will be asked to fill out a diary each
day. The subjects will record the type of caffeine consumed, time at which each beverage was
ingested, the total minutes of physical exercise, any caffeine withdrawal symptoms, quality
of sleep, and energy in the morning. The partner (reporter) will rate his or her own sleep
quality and energy in the morning, as well as the snoring level of the subject. Beginning
the second week of the study, the subject will reduce caffeine intake to half the baseline
consumption, and on the third week, will eliminate caffeine altogether.
At the end of each week, the participants will be asked to mail their diaries in to the
researchers and start a new series of entries. The study team will also call each week to
answer any questions or concerns of the subject and reporter, and encourage continued
reporting. When six weeks have elapsed following the completion of the last diary, the
investigators will make a final call to the participants to record their current level of
snoring, quality of sleep, and daily energy level.
