Sleep patterns and recovery after traumatic brain injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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 looks at whether sleep patterns can predict how well patients recover after a severe brain injury. Participants wear a small device to monitor sleep, and researchers track their recovery over time.
This study looks at how the sleep-wake cycle (patterns of sleeping and being awake) works in people who have had a traumatic brain injury and are in a coma or minimally conscious state. It may help doctors better understand and care for these patients.
This study looks at patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) who already need brain pressure or oxygen monitoring. Doctors want to see if certain tests can help predict how well someone might recover.
This trial studies an approach to improve insomnia (trouble falling or staying asleep) in people who had a moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury at least one year ago. If you qualify, it may help you restore more regular, efficient sleep after TBI.
This study looks at how brain injuries affect sleep and mental health in the months after injury. It is for people who have had a stroke, brain bleed, or traumatic brain injury within the past year and are willing to let the research team contact their doctor if needed.
