About this study

Official title: Objective Sleep Behavior in Relation to a Nigth Competition in Athletes: a Pilot Study.

Sleep is a crucial factor for athletes' health and recovery. Many variables are able to negatively influence the sleep of top-level athletes, such as: anxiety, long travels, high volume or high-intensity training period, and a nigth competition too. Therefore, the aim of this pilot study is to evalute how sleep quality changes in relation to a late nigth competition in athletes.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sleep Efficiency

    Evaluation of the changes in Sleep Efficiency, evaluated by the Sleep Profiler, before (1st and 2nd nigths) and after (3rd and 4th nigths) a nigth competition.

    Measured: From the 1st to the 4th nigth of monitoring

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. TQR

    Measured: From the 1st to the 4th nigth of monitoring

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Sleep Profiler, PSQI and TQR in people with Sleep and Athlete, run by I.R.C.C.S Ospedale Galeazzi-Sant'Ambrogio at 1 site in Italy.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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?

Sleep Efficiency (time frame: From the 1st to the 4th nigth of monitoring). 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 13 Nov 2020.
