Sleep loss and nutrition in ICU patients
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at whether not getting enough sleep in the ICU can lead to not getting enough nutrition. It might help doctors better support your recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests if a special nutritional supplement (ketones) can help your body stay resilient when you don't get enough sleep. If you join, you'll follow a specific diet and have your sleep and health monitored for about 9 weeks.
This study tests a “sleep chronobundle,” a set of sleep and light-timing steps, to improve daily sleep-wake timing in people in the ICU on breathing or blood-pressure support. It also checks whether the body’s sleep rhythms are more aligned during critical illness and over time.
This trial studies whether planned overnight nutrition (through a feeding tube) can reduce sleep problems and daily body-clock disruption while you’re in the ICU after certain heart surgery. It may help you get more restful sleep and better regular “wake–sleep” timing during recovery.
This study tests whether personalized nighttime nursing care can improve sleep quality and health outcomes for conscious patients in the intensive care unit. Researchers believe better sleep may help patients recover faster and have better long-term health.
This study looks at how to improve nutrition for people in the ICU at Lille University Hospital. It tests better ways to give food through a tube or IV to help patients recover faster.
This study looks at malnutrition in adults admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) for at least 48 hours, including those with COPD and Alzheimer's disease. It aims to understand nutrition issues and medication problems during hospitalization.
