3 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The aim of the proposed study is to pilot test two behavioral sleep intervention strategies for improving insomnia among night shift working nurses.
Study investigators want to learn more about the underlying biological clock and to see if the timing of that clock can be estimated from a single blood sample.
Insufficient sleep has both health and safety risks, but currently there are no quick, accurate and inexpensive ways to measure sleep deficiency. The current study aims to use a cutting-edge technology, small molecule analysis (e.g. metabolomics), to detect compounds in breath that reliably change with sleep-wake state and those whose levels vary by time of day.
