Sleep-wake study for brain injury patients with consciousness disorders
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at sleep patterns in people with traumatic brain injury who are in a vegetative or minimally conscious state. It aims to help understand their sleep-wake cycles and guide better care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a traumatic brain injury
- You are in a vegetative or minimally conscious state (as confirmed by the CRS-R assessment)
- You are 18 years or older
- You are admitted to a post-resuscitation rehab unit or neurological intensive care unit
- You have a relative who can express non-opposition to the study

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how sleep is affected after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). It uses a small wearable tracker to measure sleep patterns at home, either soon after the injury or a year or more later.
This study follows people with severe brain injury to see if different tests can better predict recovery. It's for those still unconscious or barely responsive after a head trauma or bleeding stroke.
This trial studies memory abilities in people who are unconscious due to a brain injury. It compares unconscious patients, conscious patients in intensive care, and people who have recovered consciousness after being unconscious. Participation involves memory testing and may help us understand how the brain recovers.
This trial is testing a brain function evaluation system to help understand and possibly improve care for people with disorders of consciousness caused by brain injury, stroke, or lack of oxygen. It is for both acute (recent) and prolonged (lasting) cases.
This study looks at how the body's internal clock (circadian rhythm) changes as people wake up from a coma. Researchers hope to learn more about recovery patterns to improve care for patients with brain injuries.
This study uses a wearable device to track sleep patterns in people who have had a traumatic brain injury (TBI). It aims to see how sleep relates to recovery, which could help improve care after a head injury.
