Resilience to Sleep Deprivation and Changes in Sleep Architecture in Shoonya Meditators
This study aims to investigate the effect of a 15-minute meditation practice on sleep architecture and high-frequency Heart Rate Variability (HF-HRV), as well as cognitive performance after both a well-rested and sleep-deprived night.
Tailored Treatment of Insomnia in Social and Health Care Sector Shift Workers in Occupational Health Care
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the usefulness of cognitive behavioural therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) tailored to shift workers in the social and health care sector. The study will also learn about the shift workers' experiences of the acceptability and feasibility of CBT-I and investigate which features …
Reestablishing Sleep and Circadian Alignment in Medical Intensive Care Unit (MICU) Patients Via a Mechanistic RCT of an Sleep Chronobundle
More than 5 million patients are admitted to the intensive care unit every year in the United States; most of these patients experience profound sleep and circadian disruption. Promotion of circadian alignment (i.e., alignment of the body's clocks) would make it possible to strategically schedule behaviors such as sleep and …
Circadian Rhythms and Time Perception in Healthy Adults During Constant Wakefulness
This study examines how the internal body clock (circadian rhythms) influences the way healthy adults experience time, think, and feel when they stay awake for an extended period. Participants will spend about 36 hours in a controlled sleep laboratory while remaining awake the entire time. Light, posture, food intake, and …
Experimental Manipulation of Sleep and Circadian Rhythms and the Role Played on Reward Function in Teens
Adolescence is a time of heightened reward sensitivity and greater impulsivity. On top of this, many teenagers experience chronic sleep deprivation and misalignment of their circadian rhythms due to biological shifts in their sleep/wake patterns paired with early school start times. Many studies find that this increases the risk for …
Pathophysiology of Circadian Rhythm Delayed Sleep Wake Phase Disorder
The goal of this study is to understand factors that contribute to delayed sleep wake phase disorder (DSWPD). The investigators will examine whether patients with DSWPD exhibit alterations in circadian rhythms and sensitivity to light compared to healthy controls. The investigators will also test a new method of predicting circadian …
Lemborexant in Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome
The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether Lemborexant is more effective than placebo in shortening sleep onset latency in patients with delayed sleep phase syndrome (both type 1 and type 2). This will be tracked using sleep logs as well as actigraphy. In this 2-year study, the investigators …
Shift Worker Intervention for Sleep Health
The aim of this study is to pilot test a comprehensive, personalized, media-augmented telehealth intervention ("SWISH") designed to improve sleep health among shift workers.
Acoustic Stimulation During Restricted Sleep After Sleep Deprivation
The purpose of this study is to determine if brief sounds or tones presented within a restricted period of recovery sleep after a period of sleep deprivation will enhance restorative properties and improve performance during a subsequent period of wakefulness.
MONITORING OF ATTENTION ACCORDING TO FATIGUE IN THE HEALTHY SUBJECT
To develop an easy-to-use measurement tool for monitoring fatigue and alertness, particularly in sleep-deprived subjects.
