About this study

The overall purpose of this study is to employ a pragmatic, multidimensional assessment of hypersomnolence that "piggybacks" on routine clinical care in patients with suspected disorders of central nervous system (CNS) hypersomnia, to determine whether these additional objective and subjective assessments are useful in the diagnosis and management of these patients.

Being tested
Pupillometry, Psychomotor Vigilance Task, Auditory Evoked Potential, Hypersomnia Severity Index
Medical subject headings
Disorders of Excessive Somnolence

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PupillometryDevice

    Measures pupillary dynamics in darkness and light conditions

  • Psychomotor Vigilance TaskBehavioural

    Response time task measuring neurobehavioral alertness

  • Auditory Evoked PotentialOther

    Measure of electroencephalographic response to standardized auditory tones

  • Hypersomnia Severity IndexBehavioural

    Self-report measure of hypersomnolence

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Proportion of Patients Categorized with Hypersomnolence

    Multiple measurements will be aggregated to arrive at the primary outcome of proportion of patients categorized as having hypersomnolence using either standard assessments or standard assessments plus additional novel hypersomnolence measures of pupillometry, psychomotor vigilance task, and auditory evoked potentials. Proportion of patients with hypersomnolence using standard measures will be calculated as number of patients with mean sleep latency (MSL) on multiple sleep latency test (MSLT) <8 minutes divided by total number of patients. Proportion of patients categorized as having hypersomnolence with additional novel hypersomnolence measures will be calculated as the number of patients with MSL<8 minutes, and/or pupillary unrest index (PUI) >8.9 on pupillometry, and/or PVT lapses >3, and/or P300 delay/sleep negativity during auditory evoked potentials divided by total number of patients.

    Measured: 2 Years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Disorders of Excessive Somnolence, run by University of Wisconsin, Madison at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of Patients Categorized with Hypersomnolence (time frame: 2 Years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Aug 2019.
