NCT00888706
The purpose of the study is to determine whether individualized social activities, physical resistance training and walking, and a combination of both are effective in improving nighttime sleep in elders with dementia.
NCT00425243
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the hypnotic efficacy of zolpidem-MR 12.5 mg in comparison with placebo, when administered over a long-term period, on an "as needed" basis, in patients with chronic primary insomnia. Secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate the drug taking behavior over a long-term period and the clinical safety and tolerability of zolpidem-MR 12.5 mg in comparison to placebo administered over a long-term period, on an as needed basis.
NCT00251290
Generalist physicians in the outpatient setting care for 80% of the 300,000 patients who have transient ischemic attacks (TIA) annually in the United States. Despite existing secondary prevention therapies, recurrent ischemic events are common following a TIA. Given the risk of poor outcomes and the important role of the generalist, new therapeutic approaches for patients with TIA are needed that can be applied by generalists to outpatients. This research will develop and evaluate a new therapeutic approach that centers on the observations that sleep-disordered breathing is a risk factor for cerebrovascular and cardiovascular disease, is common in patients with cerebrovascular disease, and is associated with poor outcome following a stroke or TIA. We posit that diagnosing and treating sleep-disordered breathing in the home of TIA patients can improve cerebrovascular and cardiovascular outcomes. The primary aims are to determine in TIA patients: 1) the prevalence of sleep-disordered breathing, 2) the feasibility of diagnosing and treating sleep-disordered breathing using an auto-titrating continuous positive airways pressure (auto-CPAP) machine within 24-hours of TIA symptom onset, 3) adherence to auto-CPAP, and 4) the effect of auto-CPAP on blood pressure. We will recruit 80 TIA patients to be randomly assigned to either the intervention or the control groups. Each patient in the intervention group will use an auto-CPAP machine for up to 90 days and will then receive an unattended sleep study using a sleep monitor. Each patient in the control group will receive two unattended sleep studies, one upon enrollment and another after 90 days.
