Arm cuff exercise for better sleep in Parkinson's
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests if a simple, non-invasive arm cuff treatment can improve sleep and other non-motor symptoms in people with early Parkinson's disease. It involves using a blood pressure-like cuff on your arm to briefly restrict blood flow, then release it, hoping to train your body's protective systems.

This study looks at whether an exercise program can improve sleep problems in people with Parkinson’s disease. It’s mainly for those who already have poor sleep quality while taking stable Parkinson’s medicine.
This study tests a treatment called ischemic conditioning, which uses a blood pressure cuff to temporarily restrict blood flow to your arm. It may help improve movement and other symptoms of Parkinson's disease.
This study tests whether exercise or other trainings can slow down or prevent Parkinson's disease in people with early Parkinson's or a sleep disorder that raises risk for Parkinson's. Participants will take part in group and online sessions.
This study tests a special bed (Somnomat Casa) to help improve sleep in people with Parkinson's disease. It looks at whether the bed is comfortable and acceptable to use.
This trial tests if a simple, non-invasive pressure arm band (applied in short bursts, like a blood pressure cuff) can improve insomnia after an ischemic stroke. It's for people whose sleep problems started after their stroke and have lasted for at least 3 months.
This trial tests whether stimulating a specific brain area (the globus pallidus) can improve severe insomnia in people who also have Parkinson’s symptoms. You might be considered if your insomnia is very difficult to control and you meet the study’s brain, sleep, and travel requirements.
