This study tests whether an AI-based sleep program can help older adults who are having trouble sleeping and also have noticed some memory changes. The program is designed to be gentle and supportive, and it may improve your sleep and overall well-being.
This study tests a self-help book about sleep, supported by phone coaching, to help caregivers of people with dementia sleep better. It may be a good fit if you struggle with sleep and care for a family member with dementia.
This study tests a “dyadic” sleep health approach, meaning it works with both you and your caregiver together. It aims to improve sleep when dementia is causing frequent sleep problems, and to see whether a caregiver-involved plan helps both of you.
This study looks at how well home sleep apnea testing works for people with cognitive impairment (memory/thinking problems) to help improve outcomes. You may be asked to do a home sleep test (and possibly an in-lab test) and will involve a caregiver if needed.
This trial tests whether playing soft sounds during sleep can boost the effects of a computer-based brain training program in people with Parkinson's disease who have mild memory or thinking issues. If you qualify, you'll use a headband that plays tones while you sleep and do brain exercises for several weeks.
This trial tests an online form of cognitive behavioral therapy (a structured skills-based program) to improve insomnia for people caring for someone with dementia. It may help reduce trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking too early.
