Trial summary

The Nightly medical application prototype is a potential, non-invasive class I medical device. The application has the potential to combine both diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for sleep. At home, Nightly measures the user's motion during sleep and then records the sleep pattern from the received data. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Validation of the Sleep Assessment Algorithm in the Medical Application Nightly and Comparing it to Polysomnography in 24 Healthy Individuals

The Nightly medical application prototype is a potential, non-invasive class I medical device. The application has the potential to combine both diagnostic and therapeutic procedures for sleep. At home, Nightly measures the user's motion during sleep and then records the sleep pattern from the received data. The obtained data are then used for the diagnosis of sleep disorders (REM and NREM sleep). Using acoustic and visual stimulation, the application has the capability to support the natural process of falling asleep, provide a better night's sleep by minimizing sleep deprivation and nightmares, while awakening the user at the appropriate moment (during light sleep).

Read the detailed description

The study is a cohort, single-center, randomized trial. The duration of one participant included in the study is three successive nights. Visual analysis of polysomnographic recordings taken from the second and third nights will be performed independently by two independent, blinded experts. According to the sleep architecture description derived from the Nightly application, polysomnographic and actigraphy studies will be assessed using the intraclass correlation coefficient, ICC, version "Two-Way Random". Parameters of the sleep architecture will be the average total length of the individual sleep phases (provided with standard deviations and coefficients of variability defined as the quotient of standard deviation and mean).

What participants receive

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

  • Nightly AppDevice

    The Nightly application will be installed independently on the user's smartphone. Once the user has set up their account and has logged in, they can then perform regular sleep quality assessments. In order to record a measurement, the user must first select a film (first screen) and watch it (second screen), the visualizations and acoustics aid in the process of falling asleep. After the film finishes, the participant places the phone on the corner of the bed, firstly with the screen facing up, and then under his/her pillow. Throughout the night, the application registers sleep phases that will be analyzed later.

What is being measured

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

  1. The ICC for distribution of the total duration of standby periods during phases NREM and REM

    The ICC for distribution of the total duration of standby periods during phases NREM and REM should not be less than 0.6 in the comparative analysis of results provided by the Nightly application and at least one of the visual recordings from polysomnography.

    Measured: Through study completion - after 3rd night of PSG

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The ICC value when evaluating the accuracy of recognizing sleep phases and vigilance using the Nightly application

    The ICC value when evaluating the accuracy of recognizing sleep phases and vigilance using the Nightly application and the reference method should be no less than the ICC when comparing actigraphy and the reference method

    Measured: Through study completion - after 3rd night of PSG

  2. The incidence of arousal and wakening's

    The stimulation produced by the Nightly application should not significantly affect the incidence of arousal and wakening's (when compared to analogous conditions without stimulation) with presumed statistical significance (p = 0.05). In other words, the aim of the experiment is to provide evidence that the distribution of arousals and wakening's measured in the study without stimulation is not statistically different from the distribution of the number of events during the Nightly application stimulation session

    Measured: Through study completion - after 3rd night of PSG

  3. Evaluate the effect of acoustic stimulation - total sleep time

    Total sleep time will be measured.

    Measured: Through study completion - after 3rd night of PSG

  4. Evaluate the effect of acoustic stimulation - wake after sleep onset

    Wake after sleep onset will be measured.

    Measured: Through study completion - after 3rd night of PSG

  5. Evaluate the effect of acoustic stimulation - sleep latency

    Sleep latency will be measured.

    Measured: Through study completion - after 3rd night of PSG

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nightly App in people with Sleep Disorder and Nightmare, run by DreamJay Sp. z o. o. at 1 site in Poland.

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 5 inclusion and 10 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 May 2018. 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 Poland. 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?

The ICC for distribution of the total duration of standby periods during phases NREM and REM (time frame: Through study completion - after 3rd night of PSG). 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 May 2018.
