The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the treatment with BTL-699-2 device is able to improve sleep quality and reduce stress in adults above the age of 22 years. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the treatment with BTL-699-2 device improve sleep quality? Does the treatment with BTL-699-2 device reduce stress? Participants will be asked to: * Undergo six treatments * Complete the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index * Complete the Perceived Stress Scale Questionnaire * Complete the Sleep and Stress Assessment Questionnaire * Complete the Therapy Comfort and Subject Satisfaction Questionnaire
The study team is conducting a study to see if Magnesium-L-Threonate (MgT) can help improve how well participants sleep and reduce pain after total joint replacement surgery
The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of smart pillows on the sleep quality of individuals who experience a snoring issue and/or obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), as well as their sleep partners. Furthermore, this study will explore whether enhancements in sleep quality positively influence depressive symptoms, physical activity, heart rate, blood oxygen levels, and cognitive functions.
The purpose of this study is to assess subjective sleep quality, diet quality, physical activity in patients with chronic insomnia before and after a brief lifestyle intervention during a traditional course of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I)
Poor sleep quality is very common in modern society. Walnuts contain many nutrients that may be helpful for sleep, including melatonin and polyphenols. Some studies show that eating foods high in melatonin and polyphenols improves sleep quality, but walnuts have not been studied specifically. This study proposes to test if eating walnuts improves sleep compared to a food that lacks these sleep-promoting factors. The investigators expect that walnut consumption for 4 days will increase melatonin levels and lead to better sleep quality compared to a high-carbohydrate, high-sugar food. The study will enroll middle-aged and older adults with sleep complaints to participate in this study. Each person will eat the two different foods for 4 days each in random order. The 4-day periods will be separated by at least 2-3 weeks. Sleep quality will be measured by questionnaire and with a wrist monitor every day. The investigators will also do a sleep study using electroencephalography (EEG) on night 3 and take measures of circadian physiology (natural body rhythms) in the laboratory on day 4 (including overnight) by measuring body temperature and blood and urine melatonin. The study findings may provide new options to improve sleep health from increased walnut consumption.
This study seeks to improve clinical outcomes for an important, growing, and vulnerable population-nursing home residents with Alzheimer's disease or related dementias-by testing an evidence-based intervention to improve these residents' sleep. It will also examine the implementation and sustainment of this intervention.
The primary purpose of this study is the determine whether a 15 minute Mindfulness Meditation (MM) administered at the preoperative appointment prior to primary unilateral total joint arthroplasty (TJA) results in any improvement in Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score, a validated metric for sleep quality, at 2, 6 or 12 weeks post-operatively.
The objective of this study is to determine if a pillow sleep aid improves sleep quality in the short term for patients who have shoulder pain from a rotator cuff injury and are being managed non-operatively.
One of the principal complicating factors associated with traumatic brain injury (TBI) is sleep-wake disturbances (e.g., insomnia, excessive daytime sleepiness, and circadian rhythm sleep disorders). Morning bright light therapy (MBLT) has been shown to improve sleep quality in a variety of conditions, but little has been done investigating the utility of MBLT in improving sleep in Veterans with TBI. This proposal aims to determine the effect of MBLT on sleep quality in Veterans with TBI. Veterans with and without TBI will be recruited from the VA Portland Health Care System. Baseline questionnaires and 7 days of actigraphy will be collected prior to engaging in 60 minutes of MBLT daily for 4 weeks, during which actigraphy will also be collected continuously. Post-MBLT questionnaire data will be collected, and follow-up questionnaire data will be collected at 3 months post-MBLT.
This two-arm randomized trial will provide digital cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) to all participants and passive body heating (PBH) sessions using a sauna blanket to half of participants over a 9-week treatment period. Participants are adults aged 18 years or older with insomnia disorder.
