About this study

Official title: Validation of Frontal Limited Lead Electroencephalography (EEG) to Formal Polysomnography (PSG) in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU)

The purpose of this study is to compare a 2-lead frontal electroencephalogram recording to a formal polysomnography (PSG) in detecting sleep vs. wake and depth of sleep in both healthy and ICU patients.

Read the detailed description

Sleep in the intensive care unit (ICU) is poor and not well understood. Formal polysomnography (PSG) is the gold standard measure, but impractical for critical care. The relative influence of environment, illness and interventions on sleep in critically ill patients is therefore essentially unknown. Interventions to improve sleep have been pragmatic and outcomes subjective or indirect, and uninformed. When it is done, formal PSG in critical illness demonstrates fragmented, shortened, interrupted and non-circadian sleep, with environmental noise, light, and frequent physical stimulation causing arousals.

What participants receive

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

  • 2-lead limited electroencephalography recordingDevice

    Also called Health Subjects in Sleep Lab, ICU patients, not sedated or ventilated, ICU patient, sedated and ventilated

    The EEG recording device will be placed in conjunction with the standard formal polysomnography (PSG). The EEG device will remain in place as long as PSG leads are connected to the subject and PSG machine.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sleep Stage Correlation

    The correlation of each sleep stage (Wake, NREM1, NREM2, NREM3, REM) as assessed by polysomnography vs. EEG via analysis of 30-second intervals (epochs)

    Measured: Overnight (with a minimum of 960 epochs)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Sleep vs Wake Correlation

    The correlation of sleep (NREM1, NREM2, NREM3, REM) vs wake as assessed by polysomnography vs. EEG via analysis of 30-second intervals (epochs)

    Measured: Overnight (with a minimum of 960 epochs)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing 2-lead limited electroencephalography recording in people with Sleep Deprivation and Sleep, run by University of Utah 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 8 inclusion and 13 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2021. 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 was stopped early (reason given: Difficulty analyzing PSG data). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Sleep Stage Correlation (time frame: Overnight (with a minimum of 960 epochs)). 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 8 Jun 2021.
