Wearable devices and blood tests for sleep in Alzheimer's
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses wrist monitors and blood tests to understand sleep problems in people with Alzheimer's dementia. It aims to improve sleep management through digital therapy and personalized insights.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study is testing a new, non-contact sleep monitor for people living with Alzheimer's disease or related dementias in long-term care facilities. The device uses sensors to track sleep without any wires or wearables, aiming to help improve sleep quality monitoring.
This trial tests whether treating sleep issues and measuring sleep can help lower the risk of Alzheimer’s disease before it starts. It focuses on older adults with no dementia signs yet.
This study tests whether taking melatonin for 3 months can improve brain structure and blood markers in people with memory problems or early Alzheimer's. It involves brain scans and simple tests of thinking and physical function.
This study looks at blood samples to understand how sleep loss affects the body. It may help find new ways to diagnose or treat sleep problems.
This study tests a new way to check cognitive (thinking and memory) health using a simple headband that measures electrical signals on your scalp. It is looking for people 65 to 90 years old, with or without memory concerns, and a family member or friend who can also take part.
This study tests ways to help people with cognitive impairment and their live-in caregivers sleep better. Both partners experience sleep problems, and the research aims to improve nighttime sleep and daytime energy.
